300-410 Practice Question: Runs the following command on Router R1: R1# show…
A network engineer runs the following command on Router R1:
R1# show policy-map control-plane
Control Plane
Service-policy input: CoPP class-map: MANAGEMENT (match-all) 100 packets, 10000 bytes 5 minute offered rate 0 bps police: cir 8000 bps, bc 1500 bytes conformed 100 packets, 10000 bytes; actions: transmit exceeded 0 packets, 0 bytes; actions: drop conformed 0 bps, exceed 0 bps
Based on this output, which statement is correct?
⚠ Common exam trap
Cisco often tests the misconception that a low police rate automatically implies drops, but the trap here is that the output must be read carefully—'exceeded 0 packets' proves no drops occurred, regardless of the configured CIR.
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
✓
All management traffic has been transmitted without any drops.
The output shows that all 100 packets matched by the MANAGEMENT class-map were conformed (100 packets, 10000 bytes) and the action for conformed traffic is 'transmit', with zero exceeded packets. This indicates that the policing rate of 8000 bps (CIR) was sufficient for the offered traffic, and no packets were dropped. The 'exceeded 0 packets' field confirms no drops occurred.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
All management traffic has been transmitted without any drops.
Why this is correct
The 'conformed' count shows 100 packets transmitted, and 'exceeded' is 0, meaning no drops.
- ✗
Management traffic is being dropped because the police rate is too low.
Why it's wrong here
No packets were exceeded, so no drops occurred.
- ✗
The CoPP policy is not applied because the control plane is not specified.
Why it's wrong here
The output shows it is applied to the control plane.
- ✗
The class-map MANAGEMENT is not matching any traffic.
Why it's wrong here
It matched 100 packets.
