At the console terminal, you type


Router#show interface serial 1
You receive the following as part of the output:
Serial1 is up, line protocol is down
What could cause this? Choose four.
A.
B.
C.
D.

There are no keepalives


There is no clock rate
There is a wrong connector
In a back-to-back connection, the other end of the connection is
administratively down
E. The cable is disconnected
Answer: A, B, C, and D
If the cable were physically disconnected, then it would show Serial1 is
down, line protocol is down. When Serial1 is up, line protocol is down,
it points to a layer 2 problem which could be no keepalives, no clock
rate, wrong connector, or in a back-to-back connection, the other end of
the connection is administratively down. If Serial1 is administratively
down (line protocol is down) then the administrator manually disabled
the interface.

Router interfaces are generally configured by the command:


Router(config)#interface type number
Which routers need more information for configuration?
A. For Cisco 7000, 7200, and 7500 series, define the interface by
slot, port number adapter, and port
B. For Cisco 4000 series, define the interface by slot, port
adapters, and port numbers
C. For Cisco 2500 series, define the interface by slot and
port number
D. There are no routers that need additional information,
all come with the exact feature set and will respond exactly
the same
Answer: A
Cisco 7000, 7200, and 7500 series routers have cards called Versatile
Interface Processors (VIPs). These cards can have one or two slots for
each port adapter. Each port adapter can have a number of interfaces.
The numbering syntax is as follows:
type slot/port number adapter/port.

work. Invasive changes (copy network and reload) replace you running
configuration. Last resort changes (write erase and reload) will return
you to the default configuration.

Answer: B, C, and D
Using the "boot system xxx" Cisco IOS global configuration command, you
can choose various locations to store the system configuration startup
files.

You need to ensure that the router always boots from NVRAM for a series
2500 router. Which command would you use?
A.
B.
C.
D.

config-register
config-register
config-register
config-register

0x2100
0x2102
0x2101
0x4101

Answer: B
The default is the hexadecimal number 0x2102 for the 2500 series routers
and this boots from NVRAM. 0x2100 would cause the router to boot to ROM
monitor mode, 0x2101 would cause the router to boot from ROM.

The "config-register" command is used at the global configuration prompt


to tell the router where to get its boot system. You can have the
router automatically enter the ROM monitor mode, boot automatically from
ROM, or boot automatically from NVRAM. To do this you set the lowest
four bits with the "config-register command". Select the
three bit configurations for the appropriate place to load the boot
system commands?
A. To enter the ROM monitor mode,
B. To enter the ROM monitor mode,
C. To load the boot commands from
number between 0-0-1-0 through
D. To load the boot commands from
0-0-1-0 through 1-1-1-1
E. To load the boot commands from

set the boot field to 0-0-0-0


set the boot field to 0-0-0-1
NVRAM, set the boot field to any
1-1-1-1
ROM, set the boot field to
ROM, set the boot field to 0-0-0-1

Answer: A, C, and E
Only A, C, and E are the correct configurations to load the boot system
commands.
You need to provide backup methods for your Cisco router so that it will
always look to your tftp server for boot system options. Which selection

When the router runs out of buffer space, this is called ________.
A.
B.
C.
D.

Source Quench
Redirect
