EtherChannel (ENCOR, CCNP Quiz) Please enter your email: EtherChannel is also called as PortChannel: FALSE TRUE Which Cisco command must be used on SW2 to enable an EtherChannel, if a network administrator is configuring an EtherChannel link between switches SW1 and SW2, by using the command SW1(config-if-range)# channel-group 1 mode passive? nw_SW2(config-if-range)# channel-group 1 mode auto nw_SW2(config-if-range)# channel-group 1 mode passive nw_SW2(config-if-range)# channel-group 1 mode desirable nw_SW2(config-if-range)# channel-group 1 mode active Which mode will configure LACP in a way that it will initiate the EtherChannel negotiation? Desirable Auto Active Passive Which statement describes a characteristic of EtherChannel? It can bundle mixed types of 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps Ethernet links It can bundle mixed types of 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps Ethernet links It is made by combining multiple physical links that are seen as one link between two switches It can combine up to a maximum of 4 physical links When a range of ports is being configured for EtherChannel, which mode will configure PAgP so that it initiates the EtherChannel negotiation? Passive Active Desirable Auto Can we use LACP on one side of the EtherChannel link and PAgP on the other side? NO YES Which settings must match on both sides of the switch ports to form an EtherChannel? Interface speed, duplex & vlan should match Only the Switch numbers must match Only the switch port numbers must match vlans & SNMP strings should match What is a best practice to use before beginning an EtherChannel implementation? Assign affected interfaces to VLAN 1 Shut down each of the affected interfaces Enable each of the affected interfaces Assign affected interfaces to an unused VLAN Which statement is true regarding the use of PAgP to create EtherChannels? It increases the number of ports that are participating spanning tree It requires more physical links than LACP It is Cisco Proprietary It mandates that an even number of ports (2, 4, 6) be used for aggregation Which one of below is an advantage of using EtherChannel technology? Load balancing is not needed with EtherChannel EtherChannel shutdowns the unused interfaces in the bundle to avoid loops A spanning tree recalculation is not required when a single link within the channel goes down EtherChannel supports fiber links Loading … Written by
