What is a characteristic of the LLC sublayer?

It places information in the frame that allows multiple Layer 3 protocols to use the same network interface and media.

An administrator uses the Ctrl+Shift+6 key combination on a switch after issuing the ping command. What is the purpose of using these keystrokes?

It will escape the ping.

How does a Layer 3 switch differ from a layer 2 switch?

Layer 2 - MAC addresses Layer 3 - IP addresses

Which address on a PC does not change, even if the PC is moved to a different network?

A network technician is measuring the transfer of bits across the company backbone for a mission critical application. The technician notices that the network throughput appears lower than the bandwidth expected. Which three factors could influence the differences in throughput?

The amount of traffic that is currently crossing the network The type of traffic that is crossing the network The latency that is created by the number of network devices that the data is crossing

What is the significance of the asterisk (*) in the show file systems output?

The asterisk designates which file system is the default file system.

What is the auto-MDIX feature on a switch?

The automatic configuration of an interface for a straight-through or a crossover Ethernet cable connection.

After making configuration changes on a Cisco switch, a network administrator issues a copy running-config startup-config command. What is the result of issuing this command?

The current configuration is saved so it will run when the device is restarted.

What will happen if the default gateway address is incorrectly configured on a host?

The host will not be able to access devices outside of the local network.

Which parameter does the router use to choose the path to the destination when there are multiple routes available?

The lower metric value that is associated with the destination network.

What will a Layer 2 switch do when the destination MAC address of a received frame is not in the MAC table?

The switch forwards the frame to the Layer 3 switch.
