autonegotiates IP address information for initial management connections
allows the use of straight-through patch cables regardless of connected device types***
places a port immediately in the forwarding state to reduce the time for the spanning tree to reconverge
10
Refer to the exhibit. What does the term DYNAMIC indicate in the output that is shown?
This entry can only be removed from the MAC address table by a network administrator.
When forwarding a frame to the device with address 0060.5c5b.cd23, the switch does not have to perform a lookup to determine the final destination port.
Only the device with MAC address 0060.5c5b.cd23 will be allowed to connect to port Fa0/18. The switch learned this MAC address from the source address in a frame received on Fa0/18.****

The frames are assigned to the native VLAN.***
The frames are assigned to the default VLAN. The frames are assigned to the management VLAN.
25
Refer to the exhibit. What would happen if the network administrator moved the network cable of Host A from interface Fa0/1 to Fa0/3 on switch SW1?
Host A remains a member of VLAN 10, because the router is routing traffic between VLANs. Host A is no longer a member of VLAN 10, because port Fa0/3 has been manually assigned to VLAN 30.***
Host A remains a member of VLAN 10, because the switch provides dynamic VLAN assignment for the port. Host A maintains connectivity to all members of VLAN 10, because it is connected to the same physical network. Host A is no longer a member of VLAN 10, but because port Fa0/3 was unused, it is now a member of VLAN 1.

26
Refer to the exhibit. The devices in the network are operational and configured as indicated in the exhibit. However, hosts B and D cannot ping each other. What is the most likely cause of this problem?

S2 will tag the frame with VLAN ID 99 when it forwards it over the trunk link.
S2 will leave the traffic untagged when it forwards it over a trunk link.***
S2 will tag the traffic with the highest VLAN ID value when it forwards it over the trunk link.

30 What is the purpose of VLAN trunking?
It improves network performance by reducing broadcast traffic. It selects the best path to transmit data in a switched network.
It carries the traffic of multiple VLANs through a single link.***
It avoids spanning tree loops in a switched network.

31 A network administrator implements inter-VLAN routing by configuring subinterfaces on a router. What is one important fact that must be considered?
The physical interface must have an IP address configured.
The subinterface numbers must match the VLAN ID number.
The no shutdown command must be issued on each subinterface.
The IP address of each router subinterface must be used as the default gateway for hosts on the corresponding VLAN.***
