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
✓
Enter configuration mode, then create VLAN, then name VLAN, then assign ports to VLAN
The correct sequence for creating a new VLAN on a managed switch is to first enter global configuration mode, then create the VLAN with its ID, then assign a name for identification, and finally assign the appropriate ports to the VLAN. This order ensures all necessary parameters are in place before ports are configured.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Enter configuration mode, then create VLAN, then name VLAN, then assign ports to VLAN
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must be in configuration mode to create a VLAN, then you can name it and finally assign ports.
- ✗
Create VLAN, then enter configuration mode, then name VLAN, then assign ports to VLAN
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot create a VLAN before entering configuration mode; the switch will not accept the command.
- ✗
Enter configuration mode, then name VLAN, then create VLAN, then assign ports to VLAN
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you must create the VLAN before you can name it; naming a non-existent VLAN is not possible.
- ✗
Enter configuration mode, then create VLAN, then assign ports to VLAN, then name VLAN
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because naming the VLAN after assigning ports is not wrong per se, but best practice is to name it before assigning ports to ensure clarity.
