Which three statements are true about using full-duplex Fast Ethernet? (Choose three.)
- Performance is improved with bidirectional data flow.
- Performance is improved because the NIC is able to detect collisions.
- Latency is reduced because the NIC processes frames faster.
- Full-duplex Fast Ethernet offers 100 percent efficiency in both directions.*
- Nodes operate in full-duplex with unidirectional data flow.
- Performance is improved because the collision detect function is disabled on the device. |

Which two statements are true regarding switch port security? (Choose two.)
The three configurable violation modes all require user intervention to re-enable ports.
The three configurable violation modes all log violations via SNMP.
After entering the sticky parameter, only MAC addresses subsequently learned are converted to secure MAC addresses.
Dynamically learned secure MAC addresses are lost when the switch reboots.
If fewer than the maximum number of MAC addresses for a port are configured statically, dynamically learned addresses are added to CAM until the maximum number is reached. |

The network administrator enters the following commands on a Cisco switch:
Switch(config)# interface vlan1
Switch(config-if)# ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0
Switch(config-if)# no shutdown
What is the effect of entering these commands?
A) The address of the default gateway for this LAN is 192.168.1.2/24.
B) Users on the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet are able to ping the switch at IP address 192.168.1.2.*
C) All devices attached to this switch must be in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet to communicate.
D) The switch is able to forward frames to remote networks. |

When port security is enabled, a switch port uses the default violation mode of ” shutdown ” until specifically configured to use a different violation mode.
If no violation mode is specified when port security is enabled on a switch port, then the security violation mode defaults to shutdown. |
