Answer: C
13. Which security log messaging method is the most common message logging facility and why?
A. SNMP traps, because the router can act as an SNMP agent and forward SNMP traps to an external
SNMP server
B. buffered logging, because log messages are stored in router memory and events are cleared whenever the router is rebooted
C. console logging, because security messages are not stored and do not take up valuable storage space
on network servers
D. syslog, because this method is capable of providing longterm log storage capabilities and supporting a central location for all router messages
E. logging all events to the Cisco Incident Control System to correlate events and provide recommended mitigation actions
Answer: D
14. What is a syslog configuration oversight that makes system event logs hard to interpret and what can be done to fix this oversight?
A. The system time does not get set on the router, making it difficult to know when events occurred. Recommend that an NTP facility be used to ensure that all the routers operate at the correct time.
B. Thirdparty flash memory gets installed and doesn’t provide easily understandable error or failure codes. Only Ciscoauthorized memory modules should be installed in Cisco devices.
C. The syslog message stream does not get encrypted and invalid syslog messages get sent to the syslog server. Encrypt the syslog messages.
D. The syslog messages filter rules did not get configured on the router, resulting in too many unimportant
messages. Configure syslog messages filter rules so that lowseverity messages are blocked from being sent to the syslog server and are logged locally on the router.
Answer: A
15. What are two security risks on 802.11 WLANs that implement WEP using a static 40bit key with open authentication? (Choose two.)

C. The response packet sent by the wireless client is sent unencrypted.
D. WEP uses a weakblock cipher such as the Data Encryption Algorithm.
E. Oneway authentication only where the wireless client does not authenticate the wirelessaccess point. Answer: AE
16. Using 802.1x authentication on a WLAN offers which advantage?

B. allows inbound and outbound packet filter rules to be established at the interface level of a device
C. limits access to network resources based on user login identity? especially suited for large mobile user populations
D. enforces security policy compliance on all devices seeking to access network computing resources
Answer: C
17. How does an applicationlayer firewall work?
A. examines the data in all network packets at the application layer and maintains complete connection state and sequencing information
B. operates at Layers 3, 4 and 5, and keeps track of the actual application communication process by using an application table
C. determines whether the connection between two applications is valid according to configurable rules
D. allows an application on your private network that does not have a valid registered IP address to communicate with other applications through the Internet
Answer: A
18. Using a stateful firewall, which information is stored in the stateful session flow table?
A. the outbound and inbound access rules (ACL entries)
B. the source and destination IP addresses, port numbers, TCP sequencing information, and additional flags for each TCP or UDP connection associated with a particular session
C. all TCP and UDP header information only
D. all TCP SYN packets and the associated return ACK packets only E. the inside private IP address and the translated global IP address Answer: B
19. What is a potential security weakness of traditional stateful firewall?
A. cannot support nonTCP flows
B. retains the state of user data packet and dynamically assigned ports in the state table
C. cannot track the state of each connection setup to ensure that each connection follows a legitimate
TCP threeway handshake
D. cannot detect applicationlayer attacks
Answer: D
20. A client wants their web server on the DMZ to use a private IP address and to be reachable over the
Internet with a fixed outside public IP address. Which type of technology will be effective in this scenario?
A. PAT
B. Dynamic NAT
C. CutThrough Proxy
D. Application inspection
E. Static NAT Answer: E
21. A mission critical server application embeds a private IP address and port number in the payload of packets that is used by the client to reply to the server. Why is implementing NAT over the Internet supporting this type of application an issue?
A. Embedded IP addresses causes NAT to do extensive packet manipulation. This process is very time intensive and the added delay causes the connection in these types of applications to time out and fail.
B. When the client attempts to reply to the server using the embedded private IP address instead of the public IP address mapped by NAT, the embedded private IP address will not be routable over the Internet.
C. NAT traversal can’t be used for embedded IP addresses. Mission critical applications typically use NAT
transversal to ensure stable timely connections, but not when embedded IP addresses and ports are used.
D. Using NAT makes troubleshooting difficult. You must know the IP address assigned to a device on its
NIC and its translated address? it takes too long to determine the source and destination of an embedded
IP address, and this delay is not appropriate for mission critical applications. Answer: B
22. Which feature is available only in the Cisco SDM Advanced Firewall Wizard? A. configure a router interface connected to a WLAN
B. create a firewall policy to block SDM access to the router from the outside interface
C. specify the router outside interface to use for remote management access

D. protocol analysisbased
Answer: C
24. What is the difference between the attackdrop.sdf file and the 128MB.sdf and the 256MB.sdf files?
A. attackdrop.sdf has fewer signatures
B. attackdrop.sdf takes up more router memory space
C. attackdrop.sdf signatures cannot be tuned
D. attackdrop.sdf only contains the Atomic signatures E. attackdrop.sdf only contains the String signatures Answer: A
25. By default, what will a router do with incoming network traffic when the Cisco IOS IPS software fails to build a SME?
A. scan traffic using the most recently installed SME B. drop all packets destined for that SME
C. print a syslog message indicating that failure of the SME build
D. pass traffic packets destined for that SME without scanning them

Answer: ACE
27. What is a secure way of providing clock synchronization between network routers? A. sync each router acting as an NTPv2 client to the UTC via the Internet
B. implement an NTPv3 server synchronized to the UTC via an external clock source like a radio or atomic clock, then configure the other routers as NTPv3 clients
C. use CDPv2 and NTPv3 to pass and sync the clocking information between the adjacent routers in the network
