IP Telephony Features practice questions

This domain covers IP telephony support on Juniper EX Series switches, focusing on Power over Ethernet delivery, power budget allocation, and LLDP-MED voice VLAN signaling. Questions present switch scenarios with IP phones and ask you to select PoE management modes, interpret show poe output, troubleshoot power faults, and identify LLDP-MED capabilities.

Courseiva uses original exam-style practice questions designed for learning and revision. The goal is to understand the concepts, recognise exam patterns, and improve through explanations — not memorise copied exam dumps.

What the exam tests

What to know about IP Telephony Features

Be able to choose the correct PoE management mode for a stated allocation requirement, read show poe interface output, and troubleshoot a phone that fails to power up. The key is matching class-based versus consumption-based allocation to what the scenario actually asks for.

Configuring PoE management modes on EX switches, including class-based versus consumption-based power allocation for IP phones

Using show poe interface and related operational commands to verify power status, allocated watts, and detect hardware errors

Understanding LLDP-MED behavior on Junos EX Series, including voice VLAN advertisement and endpoint discovery

Applying PoE+ 802.3at requirements and power budget calculations when deploying phones on EX4300 and EX4600 platforms

Watch out for

Common IP Telephony Features exam traps

  • ▸Confusing class-based allocation, which reserves power by detected class, with consumption-based allocation that meters actual draw; the question wording determines the correct mode.
  • ▸Assuming LLDP-MED automatically provisions voice VLANs without confirming the feature is enabled on the correct interface and that the phone supports the advertised TLVs.
  • ▸Treating a 'Hardware error' PoE status as a configuration problem instead of checking physical cabling, port damage, or powered-device faults first.

20 questions · select your answer, then reveal the explanation

An administrator notices that an EX4300 switch is supplying power using LLDP-MED power negotiation, but the IP phone is drawing more power than the initial hardware class allows. Where would you check the advertised LLDP-MED TLV power value received from the phone?

Which command allows you to verify the real-time PoE power consumption, allocated wattage, and operational status of all interfaces on an EX Series switch?

Question 3mediummultiple choice

You are configuring a voice VLAN on an EX Series switch access port where an IP phone is connected in series with a PC. Which configuration is required on the switch interface to handle both tagged voice traffic and untagged data traffic?

An EX3400 switch experiences a total PoE power budget exhaustion after multiple high-power IP phones and security cameras are plugged in. You want to ensure that if a power deficit occurs, the switch immediately cuts power to lower-priority ports while maintaining power to executive phones on specific ports. How should you configure this?

Question 5easymultiple choice
Open the full VLAN trunking answer →

What is the default behavior of an EX Series switch when an LLDP-MED capable IP phone connects and requests a network policy for voice VLAN?

An administrator needs to enable LLDP globally on an EX Series switch running Junos OS to support IP phones. Which command accomplishes this task?

You are configuring Power over Ethernet (PoE) on an EX4300 switch to power an IP phone requiring 15.4W (802.3af). By default, the switch allocates power based on dynamic classification. However, the IP phone frequently reboots under heavy traffic load. Which command should you configure on the switch interface to ensure the phone receives a guaranteed dedicated power budget?

Which command displays the global status, TLV counters, and operational state of LLDP on an EX Series switch?

Question 9mediummultiple choice

You are configuring voice VLANs on an EX2300 switch. You want to ensure that untagged frames entering the interface are placed into the data VLAN, while frames generated by the attached IP phone are tagged with VLAN 50. Which CLI configuration snippet correctly achieves this?

Question 10mediummultiple choice
Open the full VLAN trunking answer →

You want to configure LLDP-MED to advertise a specific voice VLAN (VLAN ID 200) with a DSCP value of 46 to all connected IP phones across all switch ports. Which configuration hierarchy is used to define this global network policy in Junos OS?

Which command is used to view LLDP-MED specific neighbor details, including device type, capabilities, and network policies on an EX Series switch?

Question 12hardmultiple choice
Open the full VLAN trunking answer →

An enterprise network uses IP phones that require LLDP-MED to receive voice VLAN information. However, security policy dictates that LLDP should be disabled on all user-facing access ports that do not have IP phones. Which configuration statement disables LLDP on a per-interface basis?

Question 13mediummultiple choice
Study the full QoS explanation →

You are troubleshooting voice quality issues on an IP phone connected to an EX Series switch. You suspect that the switch is not trusting the DSCP markings (DSCP 46) sent by the IP phone. Which Junos class-of-service (CoS) configuration ensures that incoming voice traffic DSCP bits are trusted at the ingress interface?

You are configuring an EX3400 switch to support IP phones that require power redundancy. Which PoE management feature allows the switch to allocate power based on available PSU capacity while reserving a safety margin?

Which Junos command displays the LLDP neighbor information specifically for a single interface, such as ge-0/0/1?

Question 16mediummultiple choice
Open the full VLAN trunking answer →

An IP phone connected to an EX4300 switch is assigned to voice VLAN 50 via LLDP-MED. However, when a PC is plugged into the IP phone's pass-through port, the PC cannot obtain an IP address via DHCP. The switch port is configured with interface-mode access and a native VLAN for data. What is the most likely root cause?

You are reviewing syslog messages on an EX Series switch and see frequent entries indicating PoE power budgeting warnings. You want to configure a custom trap/syslog threshold so that warnings trigger when the total power consumption exceeds 85% of the total available PoE budget. How is this configured?

An administrator is configuring LLDP-MED on an EX Series switch for a new deployment of IP phones. Which TWO configuration steps are required to properly advertise network policies to these endpoints? (Choose two.)

An administrator wants to verify LLDP and LLDP-MED operation on an EX Series switch. Which THREE operational commands provide relevant diagnostic information? (Choose three.)

Which THREE conditions must be met for an EX Series switch to successfully supply PoE power to an attached IP phone? (Choose three.)

Frequently asked questions

What does the JNCIP-ENT exam test about IP Telephony Features?
Be able to choose the correct PoE management mode for a stated allocation requirement, read show poe interface output, and troubleshoot a phone that fails to power up. The key is matching class-based versus consumption-based allocation to what the scenario actually asks for.
How should I use these practice questions?
Select your answer before revealing the explanation. Then read why each option is right or wrong — this active recall approach builds retention far faster than re-reading notes.
Can I practise just IP Telephony Features questions in a focused session?
Yes — the session launcher on this page draws every question from the IP Telephony Features domain. Use a 10-question session first to gauge your baseline, then move to 20 or 30 once the weak spots are clear.
