IPX routing practice exam for Cisco CCNA certification

The Cisco CCNA certification requires that you are completely familiar with IPX routing. CCNA certification practice exams are a great way to prepare for the Cisco CCNA certification and for jobs that will require you to install, maintain, and configure IPX routing on Cisco routers and switches. This free practice exam will help you to know the Cisco IPX routing well enough that you can productively apply your Cisco IPX routing knowledge to any network. The Cisco CCNA certification is an entry level certification which will equip you for the type of work that requires extensive use of IPX routing.

Virtual circuits or connection oriented communications are established using which protocol?

1. SPX.
2. IPX.
3. NLSP.
4. SAP.

Which of the following is not capable of GNS replies?

1. a cisco router
2. a local netware server.
3. a netware client..
4. a remote netware server.

What is the chief benefit of having SAP tables in a Cisco router?

1. Cisco routers summarize SAP advertisements then broadcast the results.
2. Cisco routers can satisfy GNS service requests.
3. WAN and "inter-subnet" traffic is reduced if the router can reply to GNS requests when netware servers and clients are located remotely from each other.

How often do Netware servers advertise or send out SAP broadcasts?

1. 30 secs.
2. Once every minute.
3. Every one and a half minutes.
4. 10 secs.

IPX-RIP updates are sent out;

1. 30 secs.
2. Once every minute.
3. Every one and a half minutes.
4. only upon link state changes.

What is the value of an IPX-RIP tick?

1. 1/16th of a second.
2. 1/10 of a second.
3. 1/60th of a second.
4. 1/18th of a second.

What is the other determining factor for IPX-RIP link cost?

1. Bandwidth.
2. Metric.
3. Hop count.
4. Administrative distance.

How does using a host hardware address as part of the IPX addressing scheme make resolution faster than IP?

1. It doesn't. A router's ARP cache eliminates that step anyway.
2. Without the added step of using ARP, mapping layer 2 hardware address' to network address is eliminated. The hardware address is already known.
3. DHCP is unnecessary.
4. There are no hierarchical network classes to negotiate.

Which ethernet frame type supports both TCPIP and IPX?

1. Ethernet_snap.
2. Ethernet II.
3. 802.2.
4. 802.3.

Which ethernet frame type supports appletalk, IPX and TCPIP

1. Ethernet_snap.
2. Ethernet_II.
3. 802.2.
4. 802.3.

which encapsulation type has been enabled on this router?

Router (config) # ipx routing
Router (config) # interface ethernet 1
Router (config-if) # ipx network 15
Router (config) # ipx routing
 

1. snap.
2. sap.
3. novell-ether.
4. arpa.

Complete the necessary command to change the encapsulation type on the router in the previous question to 802.2.

Router (config-if) # ipx network 15 

Enter the command that will list:

• The table of networks that the router is aware of.
• The method of learning about those networks.
• The number of ticks and hop count.
• The interface used to reach those networks.

Router # 
 

Complete the command necessary to configure the interface with an additional frame type.

Router (config) # ipx routing
Router (config) # interface ethernet 1
Router (config-if) # ipx network 100 encapsulation sap 
 

Enter the command that will create a subinterface named for network 20 under the second ethernet interface on the router.
