Refer to the diagram. Both switches are Cisco switches. What would be the state, speed, and duplex of the link referenced on switch SW1?
Up, 10, half
Up, 1000, full
Up, 100, half
Down, N/A

The interface can currently be used to forward frames.
The show interfaces fa0/1 command will list the interface with two status codes of up and down.
The interface cannot currently be used to forward frames.
The interface is configured with the shutdown command.
The show interfaces fa0/1 command will list the interface with two status codes of administratively down and line protocol down.

Switch SW1 sends a frame to switch SW2 using 802.1Q trunking. Which of the answers describes how SW1 changes or adds to the Ethernet frame before forwarding the frame to SW2?
Encapsulates the original frame behind an entirely new Ethernet header
Inserts a 4-byte header and does not change the MAC addresses
None of the other answers are correct
Inserts a 4-byte header and does change the MAC addresses
A switch has just arrived from Cisco. The switch has never been configured with any VLANs, but VTP has been disabled. An engineer configures thevlan 22 and name Hannahs-VLAN commands and then exits configuration mode. Which of the following are true? (Choose two answers.)
VLAN 22 is listed in the output of the show vlan brief command.
VLAN 22 is not created by this process.
VLAN 22 is listed in the output of the show running-config command.
VLAN 22 does not exist in that switch until at least one interface is assigned to that VLAN.
In the figure, in VLAN 1, all switches have default STP settings, and all trunks are up, with all links running at 100 Mbps. Which statements are true regarding the behavior of STP in this network for VLAN 1 after the STP topology has stabilized?
SW3 will create Hello messages regularly based on its Hello timer.
SW1 will repeatedly forward a Hello out its fa0/4 interface with cost 19.
SW4's interface Fa0/1 will become the designated port on the link between SW1 and SW4.
SW4 will repeatedly forward a Hello out its fa0/1 interface with cost 10.
SW3’s fa0/2 interface will be its root port.
Which of the following are transitory port states used only during the process of STP convergence? (Choose two answers.)
Blocking
Forwarding
Listening
Discarding
Learning
The diagram of a small switched network, with all switches acting as layer 2 switches in VLAN 10. The diagram notes the switch chosen as root switch, with each root port noted with the letters RP and each designated port noted with the letters DP. All three switches use RSTP, and they might also have other RSTP configuration settings not noted in the question. Which of the following statements about RSTP states and roles in this network are true?
SW2’s port Gi0/1 must be in an alternate port role.
SW1’s port Gi0/1 might be in an alternate port role.
SW2’s port Gi0/1 must be in a backup port role.
SW1’s port Gi0/1 might be in a backup port role.

Allowed VLANs on a trunk
Which EtherChannel command uses the Cisco proprietary dynamic protocol?
channel-group 1 mode passive
channel-group 1 mode active
channel-group 1 mode on
channel-group 1 mode desirable
Which type value on the spanning-tree mode type global command enables the use of RSTP?
pvst
rapid-pvst
rpvst
rstp
