Miscellaneous Questions on 9tut Questin 2
In the communication between host 1 and host 2 over the point-to-point WAN, which protocol or technology is represented by dashed line A?
A. IP
B. T1
C. ppp
D. IEEE 802.3
IP is the daddy of the layer 3 world
T1 is not a protocol, but a leased line speed
IEEE 802.3 is a protocol for CSMA/CD
PPP, answer is in the name Point-to-point protocol
Hope that helps
Host 1 sends to Switch1 (ieee 802.3 here)
Switch1 sends to Router1 (ieee 802.3)
Router1 sends csu/dsu (t1 – 1.544 mbps leased line. connects to the isp)
Router2 receives from csu/dus
Switch2 receives from Router2
Host2 receives from Switch2
- ieee 802.3 to send the packet locally
- the T1 line to connect Router1 and Route2 via the internet
- IP was used to send the packet outside of its originating network to the correct destination by process or decapsulation and encapsulation
Point-to-Point protocol is used at the point where the router needs to connect to the outside world.
Now, if you were to have it locally, you had only need for the MAC address. If you were to send it to a different network (VLAN or some network easily reachable via a serial/ethernet connection) then you only needed the Internet Protocol.
You use PPP to get from Host1 to Host2 because you MUST send it to a location far away from the network and the connection is made via T1.
failed my icnd 2 yesterday
anyway question 6 was on the test
and question 7 was on the test, know administrative distances for all protocols
Anybody have any IPv6 questions on the exam
Question 2
9tut please explain why the answer is PPP. thanks
Ro0s what was question 6 i am not following the posting but I know question 7.
Thanks
For IPv6, I was asked to select three correct addresses from a list of six possibilities. So you have to know what a properly formed IPv6 address looks like.
For Q2 I thought it would be IP between the hosts and PPP between the routers. Please can someone explain? Thanks.
The answer for question number 8 is D not C as AS is one of the main features of EIGRP.
@Khaled: BGP is not discussed much in CCNA but in general it is the protocol to connect different Autonomous Systems (AS). For example, you can connect 2 EIGRP domains with different AS numbers. So the correct answer for question 8 should be C.
question 2 Ans will be IP as PPP will only use when you connect min 2 PC under virtual circuits.IEEE and T1 are standards not protocol or technology , only left IP. you can communicate with 2 systems only using IP address, not by mac address or any other means..if you are using basic LAN also.SO IP is correct answer.
FYI: Saw Q3 & 6 on exam 7/5/11.
Q2 is asking for what is used over point to point WAN link , not between host 1 and host 2, therefore ans is ppp , hope this help
agree with Gurjit…just took test..he is right
the dotted lines throw you off
Took ICND2 and failed by 20 points – shouldn’t have spent 10 minutes trying to get 1 part of a sim working!! next time will just skip over it. ended up with 5 questions left to do in 1 minute and of course the last question was another sim.
.
anyways one question that I saw on the test that I haven’t seen mentioned here:
“What does the “wi-fi alliance cerftified sticker mean on a device?”
4 answers – read this page: http://www.wi-fi.org/certified_products.php
another thing that might help – skim through the 3 books for route/switch/tshoot CCNP before writing icnd2. Sure it may seem like overkill, but if you’re planning to take CCNP next, you’ll need to do that anyways. I’d say 5% of the questions deal with stuff I only read in CCNP docs.
Example – read up on Split Horizon over Frame Relay – why would you want to disable split horizon on this type of link? from what I understand it is so routing updates can go back over the WAN to other subinterfaces.
on other blogs I read where question A is IP. Wats up?
Anonymous – IP is a protocol, I don’t know why that would be the answer.
A. IP – a networking protocol
B. T1 – a network standard, not enough information in the question to select this option
C. ppp
D. IEEE 802.3 – a LAN standard, the question includes end-to-end communication over a WAN
The best answer given the question is ppp
ciscowillnevercatchme – wifi alliance is covered on ICDN1 in detail for info
Hi guys, i just passed my exam this morning. So stressflul. i though that i didn t get it. thanks so much 9tut. Almost question were here

Also a framerelay hotspot where you must find the address for each router..
I got 905/1000 very happy
The correct answer for Q2 is IP not PPP. Computers on Ethernet do NOT communicate with each other with PPP regardless if the packets get send over a WAN link. Its is the ROUTERS which communicate with PPP. PPP is simply incorrect. Anyone who disagrees does not know networking.
Please change this.
Again Q2 is asking “which protocol or technology is represented by dashed line A?” NOT which protocol is used over the wan link.
Dashed line A = IP
Dashed Line C = PPP
The answer is IP. Nothing complicated about this, some people here really need to stop giving advice.
The answer for Q.2 should be A. I am sorry about this mistake! I updated this page. Thanks all!
Took ICND 2 today, passed 890… Q6 is on exam today…
Also had a question which had two switch and it was asked what i need to put in between to make them work. both switch had Vlan 10 and 20 on them.. “ROUTER ON A STICK”
Answer: I chose “a Router” with straight-through cables on each side.
090211 – Had a multiple choice question that asked how to find the chassis serial number (choose 2)
Also had Access list quesiton about router configured on, interface on router and then direction (eastlake, e0 and OUT)
Hot spot- 4 multiple choice questions about OSPF, number of networks (4), root IP (path to ISP -192.168.1.0), Hellos 10 seconds, allow or prevent load balancing (cost and bandwidth)
hello IT gurus, I am trying to start a career in IT.
I know CompTIA’s A+ certification is where one should start but, I am a college student making $7.31/hour and hardly make it by as it is..
I had heard that there are such things as “brain dumps” or just “dumps” with several hundred test prep questions and detailed answers to get you started..
Unfortunately I don’t know where to get these without having to pay a couple hundred dollars for them…
if any of you happen to know where I can get, or better yet, have these dump PLEASE send them to me at osigas22@gmail.com
much appreciated, -O
I’m go to test on Mid of Dec.
I’m confused by Q2. as I know, IP is internet protocol. I think it represent the dashed line C.
so, I’ll choose IEEE802.3 instead IP.
could someone correct and explain to me if I made mistake.
thank you all in advance.
I have my ICND2 test on friday 9.12.2012 hope i will make it, I study all the 9tut sites plus cisco press ICND1 and ICND2 book, plus did more dumps. Finger crossed!!!
@Hasek
The answer is so easy that it is not even funny to bother with it (and was said previously)
IEEE 802.3, PPP are means to carry IP packets (and if you have selected the T1, with all respect but someone should rather pass a mental health check than ICND exams).
For example when you have input the 9tut.net in your browser address – the first thing was for the system to querry the DNS for an IP to communicate with the remote host – web server.
And for the PPP crazy pack – guys, wake up, read again the definition of HOST and also underline that PPP is used for router-to-router communications and host-to-network
If you were thinking of MAC addresses – think again – host 1 destination MAC is not host 2 but R1
Hope this helped
Passed ICND2 today with 944!! I didn’t have any of these questions on my test today.
hey!!! i have a problem in understanding a concept.
please can u refer a problem and help me out!!!
