A network administrator is troubleshooting a user's workstation that is unable to connect to the company network. The results of commands the administrator runs on the workstation are shown below:
A router on the same network shows the following output:
Which of the following is themostlikely cause of the issues?
Correct Answer:
B
A network architect is working on a new network design to better support remote and on- campus workers. Traffic needs to be decrypted for inspection in the cloud but is not required to go through the company's data center. Which of the following technologies best meets these requirements?
Correct Answer:
A
A cloud-delivered Secure Web Gateway can terminate and decrypt user HTTPS sessions directly in the cloud for policy enforcement and inspection without hair-pinning traffic back through the data center.
A company has a 40Gbps network that uses a network tap to inspect the traffic using an IDS. The IDS usually performs normally except when the servers are downloading patches from their local update repository 10.10.10.139 using HTTPS. During the patch windows, the IDS cannot handle the extra load and drops a significant number of packets. Which of the following would allow a network engineer to prevent this issue without compromising the network visibility?
Correct Answer:
C
By applying a Berkeley Packet Filter to drop only the HTTPS patchrepo traffic before it reaches the IDS, you relieve the processing burden during patch windows while preserving full visibility for all other flows. This avoids reconfiguring the IDS itself or losing visibility across the rest of the network.
A network architect needs to design a solution to ensure every cloud environment network is built to the same baseline. The solution must meet the following requirements:
Use automated deployment.
Easily update multiple environments. Share code with a community of practice.
Which of the following are the best solutions? (Choose two.)
Correct Answer:
AB
CI/CD pipelines: Automate the provisioning and configuration of network baselines across all environments, and make it easy to roll out updates consistently.
Public code repository: Enables your community of practice to collaborate, review, and contribute to shared IaC modules and templates, while making updates discoverable and reusable.
A company provides an API that runs on the public cloud for its customers. A fixed number of VMs host the APIs. During peak hours, the company notices a spike in usage that results in network communication speeds slowing down for all customers. The management team has decided that access for all customers should be fair and accessible at all times. Which of the following is themostcost-effective way to address this issue?
Correct Answer:
C
Implementing request throttling (rate limiting) lets you cap how many requests each customer can make per time unit. This ensures no single user can saturate the API servers, providing fair access across all customers without the recurring costs of adding more VMs.
