Select all configuration steps needed for two switches to carry VLANs 10, 20, and 99 over their inter-switch link, with VLAN 99 as the native VLAN.

  1. A

    Create VLANs 10, 20, and 99 on both switches.

  2. B

    Configure the connecting interface as a trunk on both switches.

  3. C

    Set VLAN 99 as the native VLAN at both ends.

  4. D

    Allow VLANs 10, 20, and 99 on both trunk ends.

  5. E

    Set VLAN 99 as native on one end and VLAN 1 as native on the other.

  6. F

    Allow only VLANs 10 and 20, because native VLAN 99 bypasses the allowed list.

Two switches have an 802.1Q trunk, but one end uses VLAN 99 as native and the other uses VLAN 1. What is a possible consequence?

  1. A

    The allowed VLAN lists are automatically made identical.

  2. B

    All frames for VLAN 99 become tagged.

  3. C

    Untagged traffic can be assigned to different VLANs at the two switches.

  4. D

    Assign the two hosts addresses in the same IP subnet.

  3. C

    Ping between the hosts.

A trunk is configured with VLAN 99 as its native VLAN, but VLAN 99 is missing from its allowed list. Which statement is correct?

  1. A

    VLAN 99 data will cross because native VLANs are always allowed.

  2. B

    VLAN 99 data will not cross unless VLAN 99 is included in the allowed list.

  3. C

    The switch will automatically add VLAN 99 to the allowed list.

  4. D

    The trunk will carry only untagged traffic.

A trunk already allows VLAN 30. What happens if switchport trunk allowed vlan 10,20,99 is entered on that interface?

  1. A

    It adds VLANs 10, 20, and 99 to the existing list.

  2. B

  4. D

    It allows only VLAN 10 and VLAN 20, because the native VLAN is automatically excluded.
