Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    What are the two types of IP access lists?

    • A.

      Regular and Standard

    • B.

      Standard and Extended

    • C.

      Even and Odd

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    B. Standard and Extended
    Explanation
    The two types of IP access lists are standard and extended. Standard access lists are used to filter traffic based on the source IP address only, while extended access lists can filter traffic based on source and destination IP addresses, as well as additional criteria such as protocol type, port numbers, etc.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    In standard IP access list, what fields within the IP packet can be tested? 

    • A.

      Source address, destination address

    • B.

      Source address, destination address, protocol, port

    • C.

      Destination address

    • D.

      Source address

    Correct Answer
    D. Source address
    Explanation
    In a standard IP access list, the only field within the IP packet that can be tested is the source address. The source address is used to determine the origin of the packet, allowing the network to control access based on the source of the traffic. The destination address, protocol, and port are not available for testing in a standard IP access list.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    What is the range of Standard IP access list?

    • A.

      0 to 99

    • B.

      1 to 99

    • D.

      1 to 199

    Correct Answer
    B. 1 to 99
    Explanation
    Standard IP access lists have a range from 1 to 99. This means that the access list numbers can be any number between 1 and 99, inclusive.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Every access list, carries an implicit  __________?

    • A.

      Permit any

    • B.

      Permit any any

    • C.

      Deny any

    Correct Answer
    C. Deny any
    Explanation
    Every access list carries an implicit "deny any" statement. This means that if there is no explicit permit statement for a particular traffic, it will be denied by default. In other words, the access list will deny any traffic that is not specifically permitted.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    What is the command to apply IP access list 101 to an interface? 

    • A.

      Ip access-group 101 [in/out]

    • D.

      Access-group 101

    Correct Answer
    A. Ip access-group 101 [in/out]
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "ip access-group 101 [in/out]". This command is used to apply an IP access list with the number 101 to an interface. The "in" or "out" keyword specifies the direction in which the access list should be applied, either inbound or outbound traffic.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    What is the default direction of the access-list? 

    • A.

      Inbound

    • B.

      Outbound

      In and out

    • D.

      Out and in

    Correct Answer
    B. Outbound
    Explanation
    The default direction of the access-list is outbound. This means that by default, the access-list is applied to traffic leaving the interface. It allows the administrator to control which traffic is allowed to leave the network.

    Correct Answer
    A. Access-list 1 deny 192.168.33.8 0.0.0.0 access-list 1 deny any
    Explanation
    The access list "access-list 1 deny 192.168.33.8 0.0.0.0" will block traffic from 192.168.33.8 because it specifically denies traffic from that IP address. The "deny any" statement also contributes to blocking all traffic.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Where should standard access-list be placed?

    • A.

      Close to the source

    • B.

      Close to the destination

    • C.

      In the core

    • D.

      At the distribution level

    Correct Answer
    B. Close to the destination
    Explanation
    Standard access-lists should be placed close to the destination. This is because standard access-lists filter traffic based on the source IP address only. By placing them close to the destination, unnecessary traffic can be filtered out earlier in the network, reducing network congestion and improving overall network performance. Additionally, placing them close to the destination allows for more granular control over which specific hosts or networks are allowed or denied access.

      Yes

    • B.

      No, there is an implied deny any at the end

    • C.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    The given access list is valid because it follows the correct syntax for defining a deny statement. It denies traffic from the specific IP address 136.146.27.236 with a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.0, which means it matches exactly that IP address. Since there are no additional statements or an implied deny any at the end, the access list only denies traffic from that specific IP address and allows all other traffic.
