This command prevents someone from viewing the running configuration passwords. Explanation: The startup-config and running-config files display most passwords in plaintext. Use the service password-encryption global config command to encrypt all plaintext passwords in these files.

A network administrator enters the service password-encryption command into the configuration mode of a router. What does this command accomplish? *This command encrypts passwords as they are transmitted across serial WAN links. *This command prevents someone from viewing the running configuration passwords. *This command enables a strong encryption algorithm for the enable secret password command. *This command automatically encrypts passwords in configuration files that are currently stored in NVRAM. *This command provides an exclusive encrypted password for external service personnel who are required to do router maintenance.

SVI Explanation: For a switch to have an IP address, a switch virtual interface must be configured. This allows the switch to be managed remotely over the network.

A technician configures a switch with these commands: SwitchA(config)# interface vlan 1 SwitchA(config-if)# ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 SwitchA(config-if)# no shutdown What is the technician configuring? *Telnet access *SVI *password encryption *physical switchport access

implementing a firewall installing antivirus software Explanation: Technically complex security measures such as intrusion prevention and intrusion prevention systems are usually associated with business networks rather than home networks. Installing antivirus software, antimalware software, and implementing a firewall will usually be the minimum requirements for home networks. Installing a home wireless network will not improve network security, and will require further security actions to be taken.

A user is implementing security on a small office network. Which two actions would provide the minimum security requirements for this network? (Choose two.) *implementing a firewall *installing a wireless network *installing antivirus software *implementing an intrusion detection system *adding a dedicated intrusion prevention device

Issue the reload command without saving the running configuration. Explanation: The technician does not want to make any mistakes trying to remove all the changes that were done to the running configuration file. The solution is to reboot the router without saving the running configuration. The copy startup-config running-config command does not overwrite the running configuration file with the configuration file stored in NVRAM, but rather it just has an additive effect.

While trying to solve a network issue, a technician made multiple changes to the current router configuration file. The changes did not solve the problem and were not saved. What action can the technician take to discard the changes and work with the file in NVRAM? *Issue the reload command without saving the running configuration. *Delete the vlan.dat file and reboot the device. *Close and reopen the terminal emulation software. *Issue the copy startup-config running-config command.

to enable the switch to be managed remotely to enable the switch to receive frames from attached PCs Explanation: A switch, as a Layer 2 device, does not need an IP address to transmit frames to attached devices. However, when a switch is accessed remotely through the network, it must have a Layer 3 address. The IP address must be applied to a virtual interface rather than to a physical interface. Routers, not switches, function as default gateways.

Why would a Layer 2 switch need an IP address? to enable the switch to send broadcast frames to attached PCs to enable the switch to function as a default gateway to enable the switch to be managed remotely to enable the switch to receive frames from attached PCs
