What is the purpose of the TTL field within an IP packet header?

clears an unreachable route from the routing table after the invalid timer expires

prevents regular update messages from inappropriately reinstating a route that may have gone bad

removes an unreachable route from the routing table after the flush timer expires

limits the period of time or number of hops a packet can traverse through the network before it should be discarded

used to mark the route as unreachable in a routing update that is sent to other routers

When port security is enabled a switch port uses the default violation mode of until specifically configured to use a different violation mode?

Yes,

By default port security is disabled on a Cisco switch. If it is enabled the default violation mode is shutdown with a maximum MAC address count of 1.

Even if port-security is enabled it will not place a port into the shutdown state until either MAC address sticky or a static MAC address is configured on the port.

Are devices in a single collision domain in the same broadcast domain?

AnswerYes. You can't split a broadcast domain without also splitting the collision domain. The only devices that can split a broadcast domain are routers and layer 3 switches. Switches, bridges, and routers can all be used to split the collision domain. Hubs and repeaters do not split the collision domain or the broadcast domain.

Which process best describes selective forwarding in a switch?

forwarding packets to the port that is connected to the destination node

What is the different type of route summarization available in OSPF?

There are two types of summarization:

Inter-area route summarization

External route summarization

i) Inter-Area Route Summarization

Inter-area route summarization is done on ABRs and it applies to routes from within the AS. It does not apply to external routes injected into OSPF via redistribution. In

order to take advantage of summarization, network numbers in areas should be assigned in a contiguous way to be able to lump these addresses into one range. To

specify an address range, perform the following task in router configuration mode:

area area-id range address mask

Where the "area-id" is the area containing networks to be summarized. The "address" and "mask" will specify the range of addresses to be summarized in one range.

The following is an example of summarization:

External route summarization

i) External route summarization is specific to external routes that are injected into OSPF via redistribution. Also, make sure that external ranges that are being

summarized are contiguous. Summarization overlapping ranges from two different routers could cause packets to be sent to the wrong destination. Summarization is

done via the following router ospf subcommand:
