350-701 Practice Question: A user in the marketing group reports that they…
Exhibit
Refer to the exhibit. ``` # show accesspolicy summary Policy Name: Marketing-Policy User/Group: marketing_group URL Category: Social Networking -> Block Action: Monitor Policy Name: Default-Policy User/Group: Everyone URL Category: Social Networking -> Monitor Action: Monitor # show urlfiltering categories Social Networking: facebook.com, twitter.com, instagram.com ```
A user in the marketing group reports that they cannot access twitter.com. The access policy summary is shown in the exhibit. What is the most likely reason?
⚠ Common exam trap
Cisco often tests the misconception that a Monitor action in a policy allows traffic, when in fact Monitor only logs traffic without blocking it, but a Block action in the same or a more specific category overrides Monitor for that category.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The Social Networking category is set to Block in the Marketing-Policy.
The exhibit shows that the Marketing-Policy has the Social Networking category set to Block. Since twitter.com is classified under Social Networking, this action explicitly denies access for users assigned to that policy, overriding any other settings.
