You might have missed this latest #CCNA question because configuring routers and switches does not reinforce the concepts required to answer this question. If you do want to do some labbing to learn more, download Wireshark (or some other network
Most CCNA candidates focus on the topics that require deeper learning, topics that you need to configure, verify, and troubleshoot on routers and switches. At the same time, Cisco includes a small set of topics for which you need only
What happens over an Ethernet WAN link? What Data Link addresses appear in the frame that the routers forward over the WAN? What data link headers exist on the WAN link? What types of cabling must be used? The latest
WAN connections span much longer distances than LANs – so what happens in that WAN? Even for CCENT and CCNA, you can understand some of the basic facts about how a WAN service provider builds a WAN connection. This next
The term LAN broadcast may have a specific meaning to you, with the contents of the Ethernet header leaping from your memory. But maybe not. What about the source address? Type field? Check out the question first, and then come
To answer some #CCNA questions, you need to think like a network analyzer (e.g., Wireshark). What values sit in the headers of an Ethernet frame or IP packet? In this next sample question, you’ll get a chance to think about
Can you predict the data link addresses in each frame that encapsulates a packet as it flows from source to destination in an IPv4 network? This latest QA requires you to think hard about those details. Check out the question
Time for some new practice questions! I’ve not added any new QA in a while, but I plan to get on a roll and add new QA to both the CCENT blog and CCNA blog for a good run of
The #CCNA exam can pack a punch with what looks like a simple question, and this latest practice question is just such an example. The question asks about switch forwarding, but it combines packet encapsulation concepts. Get either wrong, and
You can learn how a LAN switch forwards frames in just a few minutes, and then explore that idea in different contexts throughout your entire span of studying for #CCENT and #CCNA Routing and switching. This latest practice question asks
