ipv6 address 2001:FEED:BEEF:0003::1/64
Your organization has decided to implement unique local unicast IPv6 addressing. A global ID of FD01:A001:0001::/48 been selected for the organization's IPv6 addressing scheme. The next 16 bits beyond the global ID have been used to define the following subnets: • FD01:A001:0001:0001::/64 • FD01:A001:0001:0002::/64 • FD01:A001:0001:0003::/64 • FD01:A001:0001:0004::/64 You need to statically assign an interface ID to a router interface connected to the FD01:A001:0001:0003::/64 subnet. To ensure uniqueness, the interface ID should be constructed using the MAC address of the router interface. Which interface configuration command would you use to do this? a. ipv6 address FD01:A001:0001:0003::1/64 b. ipv6 address FD01:A001:0001:0003::/64 eui-64 c. ipv6 address FD01:A001:0001:0002::/64 eui-64 d. ipv6 address FD01:A001:0001:0003::/48 eui-64 e. ipv6 address FD01:A001:0001:0002::1/64
ipv6 address FD01:A001:0001:0003::/64 eui-64
Which IPv6 address type is only valid within a subnet? a. link-local b. unique local c. global unicast d. multicast e. site-local
link-local
You are configuring a router to redirect and consolidate log messages to a Syslog server. The router has multiple interfaces. However, you want all log messages being sent to the Syslog server to be seen as coming from the same IP address on the router, regardless of which interface the message actually exits the router from. Which command is used to accomplish this? a. logging host <address> b. logging trap <level> c. logging source-interface <interface> d. show logging
logging source-interface <interface>
Listed below are three banner types that can be configured on a router: • exec • motd • login If all three banners were configured, in which order would they display when a Telnet session is used to connect to the router? a. login, exec, motd b. exec, motd, login c. motd, exec, login d. motd, login, exec e. login, motd, exec
motd, login, exec
You have a test lab that you use to test different configurations before deploying them in your live network. You have been testing several commands from configuration mode, then going back to enable mode to view the running-configuration. Every time you exit configuration mode, the following output is displayed: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console What command can stop these messages from appearing on your screen? a. no logging console b. no syslog c. terminal no monitor d. terminal no notify
no logging console
You have configured PPP with CHAP authentication on the BRI0 interface of your router. You now want to hide the CHAP password from view in the configuration file. What command should you use? a. ppp encryption b. ppp MD5 encrypt c. enable secret password d. service password-encryption
service password-encryption
While working at the console of a Cisco device, you need to view a list of the commands that are currently stored in the history buffer of the system. Which command should you use? a. ? b. terminal history c. show history d. terminal editing e. terminal no history
show history
