How to approach sw1 and sw2 vlan trunking practice questions

Practise switch scenarios involving SW1, SW2, VLANs, trunk links, allowed VLAN lists and show interfaces trunk output.

Quick answer

VLAN and trunking questions usually test whether the VLAN exists, whether the trunk is active and whether the VLAN is allowed across the link.

Access ports, trunk ports and native VLAN behaviour.

Allowed VLAN lists and trunk verification.

How to read show vlan brief and show interfaces trunk output.

Why hosts in the same VLAN may fail across switches.

A network engineer is designing a new switched network and needs to ensure that broadcast traffic from one department does not reach another department's workstations. The engineer plans to use VLANs. Which of the following must be configured on the switches to isolate broadcast domains as intended?

Full question →

Question 2mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network engineer is designing a network for a large organization. The engineer needs to ensure that broadcast traffic from one VLAN does not propagate to other VLANs while still allowing inter-VLAN communication. Which of the following devices is required to route between VLANs?

Question 3mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network engineer is implementing VLANs for a company. The finance department's workstations are connected to switch ports configured as access ports in VLAN 20. The finance server is located in a different building and is connected to a second switch. The two switches are interconnected via a trunk link. What must be configured on the trunk link to allow finance workstations to communicate with the finance server?

Question 4mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is troubleshooting communication between two switches connected via a trunk port. The trunk link is up/up, but devices in VLAN 20 cannot communicate across the trunk. The administrator has verified that both switches have VLAN 20 created and that the access ports are configured correctly. Which command should the administrator run on each switch to verify the trunk's allowed VLAN list?

Question 5mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is configuring a trunk link between two switches. The link is up, but devices on VLAN 30 cannot communicate across the trunk. Devices on VLAN 10 and 20 can communicate. What should the administrator verify?

Full question →

Question 6mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator connects a new access switch to the core switch via a trunk port. Both switches have the same VLAN database, and the trunk is configured to allow all VLANs. However, hosts on VLAN 10 connected to the new access switch cannot communicate with hosts on VLAN 10 on the core switch. The administrator verifies that the access ports for VLAN 10 are correctly configured and that the trunk link status is up/up. Which of the following is the most likely cause?

Question 7mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is creating a new VLAN that will contain 20 devices. The administrator wants to use the most efficient subnet that provides enough usable IP addresses while minimizing waste. Which of the following subnet masks should be used?

Full question →

Question 8mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator connects two switches with a trunk link that is configured to allow all VLANs. Workstations in VLAN 10 can communicate across the switches, but workstations in VLAN 20 cannot. Both VLANs are configured on the first switch. What is the most likely cause of the issue?

Full question →

Question 9mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is configuring a new switch to carry traffic for multiple VLANs on a single link to a router. Which IEEE standard is used for VLAN tagging on Ethernet trunks?

Full question →

Question 10mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator needs to create a diagram that shows the IP addressing scheme, VLAN assignments, and routing protocols used in the network. This diagram will be used for troubleshooting and future planning. Which type of documentation should the administrator create?

Full question →

Question 11mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator has just connected a new access switch to the core switch via a trunk port. The administrator configured the trunk port on both switches with the same allowed VLAN list. However, hosts on VLAN 10 connected to the new access switch cannot communicate with hosts on VLAN 10 on the core switch. The trunk is operational and shows up/up. What is the most likely cause?

Full question →

Question 12mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is configuring an IEEE 802.1Q trunk between two switches. Which of the following must match on both ends for the trunk to function correctly?

Full question →

Question 13mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is configuring a trunk port between two switches. Both switches have been set with native VLAN 99. However, traffic from some VLANs is not passing over the trunk. What should the administrator verify?

Full question →

Question 14mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is creating a new VLAN 50 on a switch. After creating the VLAN, the administrator notices that the switch does not send VLAN information to other switches in the network. Which of the following is the most likely reason?

Full question →

Question 15mediummultiple choice

Full question →

A network administrator is preparing documentation for a new branch office. The administrator needs a diagram that shows the logical relationships between network devices and how VLANs are trunked over inter-switch links. Which type of document should be created?
