Cisco 200-301 Exam - Topic 6 Question 91 Discussion

Posted by Tyra on Jul 16, 2024 at 02:50 PM

SIMULATION

Physical connectivity is implemented between the two Layer 2 switches,

and the network connectivity between them must be configured.

I . Configure an LACP EtherChanneI and number it as 44; configure it

between switches SWI and SW2 using interfaces EthernetO/O and

Ethernet0/1 on both sides. The LACP mode must match on both ends.

2. Configure the EtherChanneI as a trunk link.

3. Configure the trunk link with 802. Iq tags.

4. Configure VLAN 'MONITORING' as the untagged VLAN of the

EtherChannel.

==================

Guidelines

This is a lab item in which tasks will be performed on virtual devices.

* Refer to the Tasks tab to view the tasks for this lab item.

* Refer to the Topology tab to access the device console(s) and perform the tasks.

* Console access is available for all required devices by clicking the device icon or using

the tab(s) above the console window.

* All necessary preconfigurations have been applied.

* Do not change the enable password or hostname for any device.

* Save your configurations to NVRAM before moving to the next item.

* Click Next at the bottom of the screen to submit this lab and move to the next question.

* When Next is clicked, the lab closes and cannot be reopened.

Suggested Answer: A

To configure an LACP EtherChannel and number it as 44, configure it between switches SW1 and SW2 using interfaces Ethernet0/0 and Ethernet0/1 on both sides, configure the EtherChannel as a trunk link, configure the trunk link with 802.1q tags, and configure VLAN 'MONITORING' as the untagged VLAN of the EtherChannel, you need to follow these steps:

On both SW1 and SW2, enter the global configuration mode by using the configure terminal command.

On both SW1 and SW2, select the two interfaces that will form the EtherChannel by using the interface range ethernet 0/0 - 1 command. This will enter the interface range configuration mode.

On both SW1 and SW2, set the protocol to LACP by using the channel-protocol lacp command.

On both SW1 and SW2, assign the interfaces to an EtherChannel group number 44 by using the channel-group 44 mode active command. This will create a logical interface named Port-channel44 and set the LACP mode to active on both ends. The LACP mode must match on both ends for the EtherChannel to form.

On both SW1 and SW2, exit the interface range configuration mode by using the exit command.

On both SW1 and SW2, enter the Port-channel interface configuration mode by using the interface port-channel 44 command.

On both SW1 and SW2, configure the Port-channel interface as a trunk link by using the switchport mode trunk command.

On both SW1 and SW2, configure the Port-channel interface to use 802.1q tags for VLAN identification by using the switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q command.

On both SW1 and SW2, configure VLAN 'MONITORING' as the untagged VLAN of the Port-channel interface by using the switchport trunk native vlan MONITORING command.

On both SW1 and SW2, exit the Port-channel interface configuration mode by using the exit command.

On both SW1 and SW2, save the configuration to NVRAM by using the copy running-config startup-config command.

Trunk link with 802.1q tags is standard practice, no surprises there!
RO

Don’t forget to save to NVRAM before moving on!
UL

Wait, are we really using VLAN 'MONITORING' as untagged? Seems odd.
WI
Winifred 11 months ago
Totally agree, matching modes are crucial!
GA
Gaynell 12 months ago
LACP EtherChannel needs to be configured on both switches.
BE

I hope I remember to set the untagged VLAN correctly. The 'MONITORING' VLAN sounds familiar, but I need to double-check its ID.
LA
Larue 1 year ago
I feel confident about configuring the EtherChannel, but I might mix up the interface numbers. Was it Ethernet0/0 and Ethernet0/1?
MI
Mitzie 1 year ago
I think we did a similar question where we had to configure a trunk link, but I can't recall if we used 802.1Q tags or something else.
LA
Lai 1 year ago
I remember practicing LACP configurations, but I'm not entirely sure about the exact commands for setting the mode.
TR
Trinidad 1 year ago
Wait, I'm a bit confused about the VLAN configuration. Do I need to create the 'MONITORING' VLAN first, or will it automatically be configured when I set it as the untagged VLAN on the EtherChannel? I'll need to review the instructions carefully.
ME
Merri 1 year ago
No problem, I've done this kind of thing before. I'll configure the EtherChannel as a trunk link and add the 802.1Q tags as specified. The untagged VLAN for the monitoring VLAN should be easy to set up.
TY
Tyisha 1 year ago
Hmm, I'm a little unsure about the LACP mode matching on both ends. I'll need to double-check the documentation to make sure I have the right configuration for that.
KI
Kirk 1 year ago
Okay, this looks like a pretty straightforward LACP configuration task. I'll start by setting up the EtherChannel between the two switches using the specified interfaces.
EL
Elsa 1 year ago
Alright, I think I've got a good handle on this. I'll start by setting up the LACP EtherChannel, then configure it as a trunk link with the 802.1Q tags. Finally, I'll set the 'MONITORING' VLAN as the untagged VLAN. Shouldn't be too difficult as long as I follow the steps closely.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know it's related to workplace safety, but I'm not totally clear on the differences between the answer choices. I'll have to read through them carefully.
LO
Lorrie 1 year ago
Okay, let me see. User ID and password are used to control access, so I think the answer is technical access control.
DE

This seems like a straightforward question. I'm pretty confident I can answer this correctly.

Wait, what's an EtherChannel again? Is that like a fancy name for a bunch of Ethernet cables bundled together?

↳ replying to Jarod
It's a way to combine multiple physical links into one logical link for better performance and fault tolerance.
VA

Yes, an EtherChannel is a way to bundle multiple Ethernet links together to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy.

Haha, I bet the LACP mode match is the tricky part. Gotta make sure both ends are speaking the same language.

Absolutely, once the LACP mode is set correctly, the trunk link with VLAN tagging should work smoothly.

Definitely, it's like making sure both switches are on the same page before they start communicating.
