Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 24

Question 230

A four-member EtherChannel is already formed as Port-channel5. The operator wants to inspect settings on the **logical** aggregate interface instead of one physical member. Which interface context should be examined?

  1. Inspect only GigabitEthernet1/0/1 without entering Port-channel5 context
  2. Inspect show interfaces trunk without identifying Port-channel5
  3. Change LACP mode to active on all members without inspecting the formed aggregate
  4. Inspect interface port-channel 5

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Port-channel represents the logical link over the configured physical members.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A physical member interface cannot represent the complete logical aggregate’s configured IP or trunk properties.

B:

A trunk summary may list VLAN carriage but is not the requested logical aggregate interface configuration context.

C:

Negotiation mode change is disruptive and does not satisfy the read-only inspection request for Port-channel5.

Question 231

Two Catalyst ports form an LACP bundle but one has a different native VLAN/allowed set from the other. Which member-level trunk property comparison helps restore a consistent bundle?

  1. Match only each member’s configured IP next hop without comparing switchport VLAN parameters
  2. Enable PortFast individually on physical members to bypass aggregation checks
  3. Check only LACP neighbor system IDs and ignore member switchport configuration
  4. Compare trunk and native VLAN settings of all members

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Incompatible switchport properties prevent safe bundling of physical interfaces.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is a Layer 2 trunk bundle; inconsistent trunk/native settings are the reported compatibility issue.

B:

PortFast does not correct inconsistent trunk VLAN characteristics for members of one EtherChannel.

C:

Negotiation partners can be correct while incompatible local native/allowed VLAN settings exclude a member.

Question 232

Two candidate physical interfaces have different fixed speeds or mismatched duplex support and fail to join the intended EtherChannel. Which compatibility parameters must match for aggregation?

  1. Assign all ports to the same VLAN but leave one at an incompatible physical rate
  2. Verify matching speed and duplex capabilities
  3. Adjust switchport trunk allowed VLANs without checking physical layer negotiation
  4. Change LACP port priority to force incompatible-rate interfaces to join

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

EtherChannel requires compatible physical port characteristics.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Matching VLANs does not reconcile mismatched speed or duplex on links intended for the same bundle.

C:

Trunk permission changes cannot make incompatible Ethernet PHY modes operate as one bundle.

D:

Priority influences port selection but cannot override physical compatibility requirements for aggregation.

Question 233

A switch has LACP enabled but the port-channel remains down. The operator needs evidence of the adjacent system IDs, partner ports and negotiation state. Which LACP neighbor display should be used?

  1. Inspect show interfaces trunk to read allowed VLANs
  2. Inspect show lacp neighbor
  3. Inspect show mac address-table dynamic on the aggregated VLAN
  4. Run show spanning-tree port-channel to read the STP role

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

LACP neighbor output confirms which partner ports and systems are participating.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The trunk listing does not enumerate LACP partner system IDs, peer ports and negotiation state.

C:

MAC learning is unrelated to LACP negotiation partner identity requested.

D:

STP treats the bundle as a logical link but does not report the LACP partner system and port details.

Question 234

A Catalyst switch has a healthy four-link EtherChannel, but most application traffic uses one physical member. The operator needs to see which header fields the switch uses to select member links; it does not want to recheck member status. Which command is appropriate when supported by the platform?

  1. show etherchannel load-balance
  2. show etherchannel summary
  3. show lacp neighbor
  4. show interfaces status

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

This command displays the switch’s EtherChannel load-distribution selection policy, such as source/destination address or port fields as supported.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The summary shows channel/member state, not the hash inputs used to choose the forwarding link.

C:

LACP neighbor information addresses negotiation peers, not the global/per-platform EtherChannel load-balance selection mechanism.

D:

Interface status can show link speeds and state but does not reveal the EtherChannel hashing policy.

Question 235

Four member links participate in one Port-channel trunk, and a new allowed VLAN must be carried consistently by the aggregate. Where should the shared logical interface setting be applied rather than drifting per member?

  1. Place conflicting switchport trunk VLAN lists independently on each physical member
  2. Configure an access VLAN only on one member to carry three tagged VLANs
  3. Apply consistent settings to the port-channel interface
  4. Configure the new VLAN solely as a routed loopback on the switch

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Configuring the logical bundle and compatible members helps maintain coherent forwarding.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Member disagreement can cause bundle suspension or unexpected behavior, rather than applying the uniform logical aggregate policy.

B:

One access VLAN cannot represent the required multi-VLAN trunk behavior on the entire bundle.

D:

A loopback address does not add VLAN carriage to the L2 Port-channel trunk.

Question 236

An operator is building a routed Port-channel between two Layer 3 switches rather than a Layer 2 VLAN trunk. Which routed-interface conversion must be supported and applied consistently to the physical member ports?

  1. Configure only an IP address on the physical member while leaving it as an L2 switchport
  2. Apply no switchport to the routed member links
  3. Use switchport mode trunk on every member and treat the bundle as routed
  4. Set switchport access vlan 1 on each member while expecting Layer 3 routing

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A routed EtherChannel uses Layer 3 physical interfaces compatible with the Layer 3 port-channel.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A Layer 3 port-channel requires compatible routed members; per-member IP addresses are not the correct aggregate IP setting.

C:

A Layer 2 trunk carries tagged Ethernet VLANs; it does not implement the specified routed aggregate.

D:

An access member is still a switched link and does not give the required routed member status.

Question 237

A Cisco Catalyst uplink must bundle Ethernet member links with a standards-compliant third-party switch that supports IEEE link aggregation but not Cisco PAgP. Which negotiated EtherChannel protocol should both ends use?

  1. PAgP desirable on Cisco and LACP passive on the third-party switch
  2. Static `mode on` at one end and PAgP auto at the other end
  3. LACP on both peers, with at least one active mode and compatible member attributes
  4. HSRP active/standby between the two switchport members

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

LACP supports standards-based link aggregation across vendors, and compatible active/active or active/passive peers can negotiate the bundle.

Incorrect Answers

A:

PAgP is Cisco-proprietary; a third-party device supporting standards-based LACP will not form the intended common PAgP/LACP negotiation.

B:

A forced nonnegotiating member at one end is not the same protocol as a partner expecting PAgP negotiation.

D:

HSRP is first-hop IP gateway redundancy and does not negotiate a Layer 2 EtherChannel of physical switchports.

Question 238

An EtherChannel is designed as a Layer 3 IP link. Which IOS interface should own its one logical IP address after the physical member links are bundled?

  1. Assign the same IPv4 address to each physical member interface
  2. Configure the address under interface port-channel
  3. Assign the IP gateway to SVI VLAN 1 and leave the routed bundle without an address
  4. Put the IP address under the LACP neighbor system identifier field

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The logical Layer 3 port-channel carries the routed address rather than separate member interfaces.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The routed Port-channel is one Layer 3 interface; assigning identical IPs to individual members is not the model.

C:

An unrelated SVI is a different logical interface and does not number the requested routed Port-channel.

D:

LACP identity identifies aggregation peers; it is not an IP address configuration context.

Question 239

A configured routed Port-channel is not forwarding. The technician needs an IPv4 interface status/summary showing the Port-channel address and line state. Which show command fits?

  1. Run show lacp neighbor to view peer system IDs only
  2. Run show etherchannel summary to list bundled members only
  3. Run show interfaces trunk for VLAN allowed lists
  4. Inspect show ip interface brief for the Port-channel

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The IPv4 interface summary shows its configured address and operational line status.

Incorrect Answers

A:

LACP neighbor state does not include the logical Port-channel’s IPv4 address and operational line status.

B:

That shows bundle membership but not the requested IPv4 address of the routed Port-channel.

C:

A routed Port-channel is not a Layer 2 VLAN trunk, and this output does not show its assigned IPv4 address.

Question 240

An EtherChannel member has a larger MTU than another member, and the bundle rejects inconsistent ports. Which member-level parameter must be aligned before traffic is balanced?

  1. Increase LACP system priority and ignore physical MTU incompatibility
  2. Align interface MTU settings across the bundle
  3. Configure different jumbo MTUs on each member to spread packet sizes
  4. Change only the EtherChannel load-balance hash

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Member consistency prevents incompatible links from being included.

Incorrect Answers

A:

LACP election/priority cannot correct data-plane MTU incompatibility among members.

C:

A bundle needs compatible member attributes; making MTUs deliberately unequal does not remove inconsistency.

D:

Hash selection distributes flows but does not change physical interface MTUs or repair member compatibility.
