Questions and Answers
Which of the following is the primary advantage of deploying a switch block on a company network?
Which of the following is the primary advantage of deploying a switch block on a company network?
- The failure of a switch block will not impact all end users. (correct)
- A single core router provides all the routing between VLANs.
- This is a security feature that is available on all new Catalyst switches.
- This is network application software that prevents the failure of a single network device.
When planning for redundancy on a hierarchical network design, what action should be taken?
When planning for redundancy on a hierarchical network design, what action should be taken?
- Continually purchase backup equipment for the network.
- Implement STP portfast between the switches on the network.
- Add alternate physical paths for data to traverse the network. (correct)
- Immediately replace a non-functioning module, service or device on a network.

Study Notes
Network Fundamentals
- The primary advantage of deploying a switch block on a company network is to reduce the size of the collision domain.
Redundancy Planning
- When planning for redundancy on a hierarchical network design, duplicate devices and paths should be added to ensure that there are no single points of failure.
IPv6 Addressing
- The service that provides dynamic global IPv6 addressing to end devices without using a server that keeps a record of available IPv6 addresses is SLAAC (Stateless Address Autoconfiguration).
Network Design
- The function of a core router in a network design is to connect multiple aggregation routers together and provide connectivity to the network backbone.
Spanning Tree Protocol
- The purpose of implementing STP portfast between switches on a network is to allow a switch port to bypass the listening and learning states and transition directly to the forwarding state, reducing downtime when connecting devices such as laptops.
