CCNA Security Chapter 6 - 2014

1. As a recommended practice for Layer 2 security, how should VLAN 1 be treated?


All access ports should be assigned to VLAN 1.


All trunk ports should be assigned to VLAN 1.


VLAN 1 should be used for management traffic.

>> 
VLAN 1 should not be used.



2. With IP voice systems on data networks, which two types of attacks target VoIP specifically? (Choose two.)


CoWPAtty


Kismet

>> 
SPIT


virus

>> 
vishing

3. Which option best describes a MAC address spoofing attack?


An attacker gains access to another host and masquerades as the rightful user of that device.

>> 
An attacker alters the MAC address of his host to match another known MAC address of a target host.


An attacker alters the MAC address of the switch to gain access to the network device from a rogue host device.


An attacker floods the MAC address table of a switch so that the switch can no longer filter network access based on MAC addresses.




4. Which attack relies on the default automatic trunking configuration on most Cisco switches?


LAN storm attack

>> 
VLAN hopping attack


STP manipulation attack


MAC address spoofing attack



5. Which two measures are recommended to mitigate VLAN hopping attacks? (Choose two.)

>> 
Use a dedicated native VLAN for all trunk ports.


Place all unused ports in a separate guest VLAN.

>> 
Disable trunk negotiation on all ports connecting to workstations.


Enable DTP on all trunk ports.


Ensure that the native VLAN is used for management traffic.



6. Which three are SAN transport technologies? (Choose three.)

>> 
Fibre Channel


SATA

>> 
iSCSI


IP PBX

>> 
FCIP


IDE



7. Refer to the exhibit. What action will the switch take when the maximum number of secure MAC addresses has reached the allowed limit on the Fa0/2 port?


Packets with unknown source addresses are dropped, but notification of the dropped packets is sent.


The VLAN that Fa0/2 is on is set to error-disabled and all traffic on the VLAN is stopped.


The interface immediately becomes error-disabled and the port LED is turned off.

>> 
Packets with unknown source addresses are dropped without notification.



8. Which software tool can a hacker use to flood the MAC address table of a switch?

>> 
macof


Cisco CCP


kiwi syslog server


protocol analyzer



9. Which two methods are used to mitigate VLAN attacks? (Choose two.)


enabling port security on all trunk ports

>> 
using a dummy VLAN for the native VLAN


implementing BPDU guard on all access ports

>> 
disabling DTP autonegotiation on all trunk ports


using ISL instead of 802.1q encapsulation on all trunk interfaces



10. Which three switch security commands are required to enable port security on a port so that it will dynamically learn a single MAC address and disable the port if a host with any other MAC address is connected? (Choose three.)

>> 
switchport mode access


switchport mode trunk

>> 
switchport port-security


switchport port-security maximum 2

>> 
switchport port-security mac-address sticky


switchport port-security mac-address mac-address



11.What is an example of a trusted path in an operating system?


digital certificate


digital signature


hash message authentication

>> 
Ctrl-Alt-Delete key sequence



12. Why are traditional network security perimeters not suitable for the latest consumer-based network endpoint devices?


These devices are not managed by the corporate IT department.

>> 
These devices are more varied in type and are portable.


These devices connect to the corporate network through public wireless networks.


These devices pose no risk to security as they are not directly connected to the corporate network.



13. Which Cisco IronPort appliance would an organization install to manage and monitor security policy settings and audit information?


C-Series

>> 
M-Series


S-Series


SenderBase-Series



14. Which Cisco IronPort appliance would an organization install to protect against malware?


C-Series


M-Series

>> 
S-Series


SenderBase-Series



15. What is the goal of the Cisco NAC framework and the Cisco NAC appliance?

>> 
to ensure that only hosts that are authenticated and have had their security posture examined and approved are permitted onto the network


to monitor data from the company to the ISP in order to build a real-time database of current spam threats from both internal and external sources


to provide anti-malware scanning at the network perimeter for both authenticated and non-authenticated devices


to provide protection against a wide variety of web-based threats, including adware, phishing attacks, Trojan horses, and worms



16. When the Cisco NAC appliance evaluates an incoming connection from a remote device against the defined network policies, what feature is being used?


authentication and authorization

>> 
posture assessment


quarantining of noncompliant systems


remediation of noncompliant systems



17. Which command is used to configure the PVLAN Edge feature?


switchport block


switchport nonnegotiate

>> 
switchport protected


switchport port-security violation protect



18. Which statement is true about a characteristic of the PVLAN Edge feature on a Cisco switch?


All data traffic that passes between protected ports must be forwarded through a Layer 2 device.

>> 
All data traffic that passes between protected ports must be forwarded through a Layer 3 device.


Only broadcast traffic is forwarded between protected ports.


Only unicast traffic is forwarded between protected ports.



19. What is the default configuration of the PVLAN Edge feature on a Cisco switch?


All active ports are defined as protected.


All ports are defined as protected.

>> 
No ports are defined as protected.


EtherChannel groups are defined as protected ports.



20. Under which circumstance is it safe to connect to an open wireless network?


The connection utilizes the 802.11n standard.


The device has been updated with the latest virus protection software.

>> 
The connection is followed by a VPN connection to a trusted network.


The user does not plan on accessing the corporate network when attached to the open wireless network.
