t of which option for WAN connectivity?

dynamic flow control
compression and network layer address for IP
connection-oriented or connectionless communication methods
7. Why are Network Control Protocols used in PPP?
to establish and terminate data links
to provide authentication capabilities to PPP
 to manage network congestion and to allow quality testing of the link
to allow multiple Layer 3 protocols to operate over the same physical li
nk *****

8. Refer to the exhibit. What statement is true about the debug output?
R2 is using PAP instead of CHAP.
The routers have different CHAP passwords configured. *****
The administrator performed a shutdown on the R2 PPP interface during ne
gotiation.
The Layer 3 protocol negotiation caused the connection failure.
9. Which best describes data communications equipment (DCE)?
serves as data source and/or destination
responsible for negotiating windowing and acknowledgements
physical devices such as protocol translators and multiplexers
equipment that forwards data and is responsible for the clocking signal
****
10. What statement best describes cell switching?
dedicated path created between endpoints
permanent physical link between two points
virtual circuits established in network of ISPs
fixed-length packets that traverse virtual circuits ****

64 kbps ****
1.544 Mbps
44.736 Mbps
12. What best describes the use of a data-link connection identifier (DL
CI)?
an address identifying a virtual circuit *****
a logical address identifying the DCE device
an address identifying a Layer 3 service across a Frame Relay network
a logical address identifying the physical interface between a router an
d a Frame Relay switch
13. At what physical location does the responsibilty for a WAN connectio
n change from the user to the service provider?
demilitarized zone (DMZ)
demarcation point *****
local loop
cloud
14. Which three statements are true regarding LCP? (Choose three.)
It is responsible for negotiating link establishment.
It negotiates options for Layer 3 protocols running over PPP. ****
It uses MD5 encryption while negotiating link-establishment parameters.
****
It terminates the link upon user request or the expiration of an inactiv
ity timer.
It can test the link to determine if link quality is sufficient to bring
up the link. ****
It monitors the link for congestion and dynamically adjusts the acceptab
le window size.
 15. Refer to the exhibit. What statement is true regarding the output sh
own?
LCP is in the process of negotiating a link.
LCP and NCP are waiting for CHAP authentication to complete.
LCP negotiation has completed successfully, but NCP negotiation is in pr
ogress. *****
LCP and NCP negotiation is complete, and the data link service is availa
ble to carry packets.

16. Refer to the exhibit. The command output is from two routers that ar
e connected by a point-to-point T1 link. Based on the information shown, what is
the likely problem if the routers are unable to communicate using TCP/IP?
A loopback has not been set on either router.
The routers have mismatched serial line encapsulation. *****
Carrier delay has not been configured on router Cisco_2801.

ive links for a specific Frame Relay connection. ****
