Which statement describes the graceful restart capability in Cisco NX-OS Software?
A. In NX-OS Software, the OSPFv2 graceful restart extension is Cisco proprietary and is
only compatible with other Cisco routers.
B. A graceful restart allows OSPFv2 to remain in the data forwarding path through a

a grace period that tells NSF helpers to keep all LSAs that originated from the restarting
interface.
C. Graceful restart helps keep an NX-OS system forwarding traffic transparently even if it
experiences a cold reboot.
D. If the restarting OSPFv2 interface does not come back up before the end of the grace
period, or if the network experiences a topology change, the OSPFv2 neighbors tear down
adjacency with the restarting OSPFv2 interface and treat it as a normal OSPFv2 restart.
E. OSPFv3 graceful restart must be disabled before doing an ISSU.

A. show flogi database
B. show system fc login
C. show npv flogi-table
D. show npv fcns database
E. show interface vfc X flogi

Explanation:
In a Fibre Channel fabric, each host or disk requires an FCID. Use the show flogi database
command to verify if a storage device is displayed in the Fabric login (FLOGI) table as in
the examples below. If the required device is displayed in the FLOGI table, the fabric login
is successful. Examine the FLOGI database on a switch that is directly connected to the
host HBA and connected ports.
Examples
The following example displays details on the FLOGI database.
switch# show flogi database
--------------------------------------------------------------------------INTERFACE VSAN FCID PORT NAME NODE NAME

Which three statements about the exhibit are true? (Choose three.)
A. The differentiating characteristic of the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series is that it does not run
Spanning Tree Protocol. This characteristic may seem to be a significant departure from
other Ethernet switches, which might potentially cause catastrophic network loops.
However, in reality, the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series implements a simple and effective loopprevention strategy that does not require Spanning Tree Protocol.
B. Because the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series does not participate in Spanning Tree Protocol,
it does not respond to BPDU packets, nor does it generate them. BPDU packets that are
received by Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switches are dropped.
C. The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series uses a simple technique to prevent loops. Like a
physical Ethernet switch, the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch performs source and
destination MAC address lookups to make forwarding decisions. The VEM applies loopprevention logic to every incoming packet on Ethernet interfaces.
D. The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series uses a simple technique to prevent loops. Like any
logical Ethernet switch, the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch performs source and
destination MAC address lookups to make forwarding decisions. The VEM applies loop-
102

prevention logic to every incoming packet on Ethernet interfaces.
E. Because the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series participates in Spanning Tree Protocol, it
responds to BPDU packets, and it generate them. BPDU packets that are received by
Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switches are dropped.

C. The switch will not validate DHCP messages received or use the DHCP snooping
binding database to validate subsequent requests from untrusted hosts until DHCP
snooping is enabled globally and for each specific VLAN.
D. Globally disabling DHCP snooping removes all DHCP snooping configuration on the
switch.
E. Globally disabling DHCP snooping does not remove any DHCP snooping configuration
or the configuration of other features that are dependent upon the DHCP snooping feature.

Which two statements about Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switches are correct? (Choose
two.)
A. When VSM interfaces are created for a virtual machine, the VMware vSwitch port-group
configuration is used initially, which requires the creation of a port-group name for these
interfaces and an appropriate VLAN. The simplest configuration is to create a single port
group (for example, VSM-Interfaces), that includes all the interfaces that use this port group
and the same VLAN.
B. The mgmt0 interface on the VSM does not necessarily require its own VLAN. In fact,
you can use the same VLAN to which the VMware vCenter Server belongs. The VSM
management VLAN is really no different from any other virtual machine data VLAN.
Alternatively, network administrators can designate a special VLAN for network device
management.
C. Always deploy the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series VSM in pairs, with one VSM that is
defined as the primary module and the other that is defined as the secondary module on
two separate hosts.
D. The service console is a critical interface that resides on every logical server.

Your company wants Server 1/eth0 (vNIC 1) configured so that it always uses Fabric
Interconnect A Port Channel 1 (Po1) when it communicates with anything outside of the
Cisco UCS domain. However, if vNIC 1 fails over to Fabric Interconnect B using fabric
failover, then vNIC 1 can use any uplink port on Fabric Interconnect B.

Your organization is purchasing Cisco devices as well as non-Cisco devices for switching.
Which three statements are correct about connecting Cisco devices to a non-Cisco 802.1Q
cloud? (Choose three.)
A. Because Cisco devices transmit BPDUs to the SSTP multicast MAC address on VLANs

Which two statements about Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switches are correct? (Choose
two.)
A. When VSM interfaces are created for a virtual machine, the VMware vSwitch port-group
configuration is used initially, which requires the creation of a port-group name for these
interfaces and an appropriate VLAN. The simplest configuration is to create a single port
group (for example, VSM-Interfaces), that includes all the interfaces that use this port group
and the same VLAN.
B. The mgmt0 interface on the VSM does not necessarily require its own VLAN. In fact,
you can use the same VLAN to which the VMware vCenter Server belongs. The VSM
168

management VLAN is really no different from any other virtual machine data VLAN.
Alternatively, network administrators can designate a special VLAN for network device
management.
C. Always deploy the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series VSM in pairs, with one VSM that is
defined as the primary module and the other that is defined as the secondary module on
two separate hosts.
