14.

Which step is not part of configuring custom queuing?

1. Defining the custom queuing filter

2. Assigning a default queue

3. Configuring the transfer rate per queue

4. Assigning a priority queue list to the interface

15.

Which statement best describes weighted fair queuing?

1. The queues are based on the source and destination of the packets.

2. Bandwidth is shared among all traffic types, giving priority to low-volume traffic.

3. Bandwidth is shared among high-priority traffic only.

16.

Which statement best describes priority queuing?

2. The queues are based on the destination address of the packet.

3. The queues are based on the traffic type; all queues are processed equally.

4. The queues are based on the traffic type; the highest priority traffic is always processed first.

17.

Which of the following statements is true regarding traffic shaping?

2. IP can use traffic shaping to adapt dynamically to available bandwidth using the BECN mechanism.

20.

Named access lists are available since which IOS revision?

1. 10.2

2. 10.3

3. 11.2

4. 11.3

1.

A Access lists, along with the Frame Relay BECN mechanism, can be used for traffic shaping to help eliminate network bottlenecks.

2.

A, B, C, D, E, F, H All items are logged either to the console or to a Syslog server for later review except for access list line number.

3.

A, C The primary uses of access lists are traffic control. Security and bandwidth are methods of traffic control.

4.

B Proxy ARP can minimize the need for client reconfiguration of default router addresses.

5.

D IP helper addresses can be configured on the Cisco router and allow for central services network designs.

6.

A Traffic compression is best applied to WAN links where bandwidth is at a premium.

7.

A, C, D Header, payload, and link compression are supported by the Cisco IOS. Header compression only affects the IP header, payload compression only affects the data, and link compression works on both the IP header and data.

8.

B Extended IP access lists are numbered using numbers between 100 and 199.

9.

D Weighted fair queuing assigns the highest priority to low-volume traffic.

10.

A Interactive traffic is time-sensitive and is sensitive to delay.

11.

C Queuing is most effective on WAN links.

12.

A Priority queuing guarantees that higher priority traffic will get sent first.

13.

B Custom queuing allows the network designer to classify traffic at the router interface.

14.

D Defining the filter, assigning the queue, and configuring the transfer rate are all configurations required to configure custom queuing.

15.

B Weighted fair queuing assigns a higher priority to low-volume traffic.

16.

D Traffic type (i.e., high-priority), will be processed through the queue first.

17.

A Frame Relay uses the BECN notification method to dynamically accomplish traffic shaping.

18.

A, B RSVP is used by end stations and routers to guarantee the passage of time-sensitive traffic.

19.

D Cisco recommends that compression be disabled on the router if CPU utilization is greater than 65 percent.

20.

C Named access lists have been available since IOS release 11.2.
