DCOM 219 FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 2025
What are two expected features of modern enterprise
networks? (Choose two.) - correct answer- support for
converged network traffic
support for critical applications
Which type of information is displayed by the show ip protocols
command that is issued from a router command prompt? -
correct answer- the configured routing protocols and the
networks that the router is advertising
Which action should be taken when planning for redundancy on
a hierarchical network design? - correct answer- add alternate
physical paths for data to traverse the network
In the Cisco Enterprise Architecture, which two functional parts
of the network are combined to form a collapsed core design?
(Choose two.) - correct answer- distribution layer
What are two ways to access a Cisco switch for out-of-band
management? (Choose two.) - correct answer- a connection
that uses the AUX port*a connection that uses the AUX port
,2 | Page
a connection that uses the console port
How can an enterprise network be designed to optimize
bandwidth? - correct answer- by organizing the network to
control traffic patterns
Refer to the exhibit. Which devices exist in the failure domain
when switch S3 loses power? - correct answer- PC_3 and
AP_2
As the network administrator you have been asked to
implement EtherChannel on the corporate network. What does
this configuration consist of? - correct answer- grouping
multiple physical ports to increase bandwidth between two
switches
What term is used to express the thickness or height of a
switch? - correct answer- rack unit
What is the function of ASICs in a multilayer switch? - correct
answer- They streamline forwarding of IP packets in a
multilayer switch by bypassing the CPU.

Which design feature will limit the size of a failure domain in an
enterprise network? - correct answer- the use of the building
switch block approach
A network administrator is planning redundant devices and
cabling in a switched network to support high availability. Which
benefit will implementing the Spanning Tree Protocol provide to
this design? - correct answer- Redundant paths can be
available without causing logical Layer 2 loops.
What are two benefits of extending access layer connectivity to
users through a wireless medium? (Choose two.) - correct
answer- increased flexibility
reduced costs
Which two features of enterprise class equipment assists an
enterprise network in maintaining 99.999 percent up-time?
(Choose two.) - correct answer- failover capabilities
redundant power supplies
A network technician needs to connect a PC to a Cisco network
device for initial configuration. What is required to perform this
device configuration? - correct answer- terminal emulation
client

What network design would contain the scope of disruptions on
a network should a failure occur? - correct answer- the
deployment of distribution layer switches in pairs and the
division of access layer switch connections between them
What are three access layer switch features that are
considered when designing a network? (Choose three.)? -
correct answer- forwarding rate
Power over Ethernet
port density
What are two functions of a router? (Choose two.) - correct
answer- It connects multiple IP networks.
It determines the best path to send packets.
What capability is provided by the use of application-specific
integrated circuits in Cisco multilayer switches? - correct
answer- forwarding of IP packets independent of the CPU
Which statement describes a characteristic of Cisco Meraki
switches? - correct answer- They are cloud-managed access
switches that enable virtual stacking of switches.
