C. spanning trees
What VSS technology allows you to share downstream resources? A. LACP B. PAgP C. MEC D. EOA
C. MEC
Multi-chassis EtherChannel:
Multi-chassis EtherChannel (MEC) is a Layer 2 multipathing technology. This form of EtherChannel allows a connected node to terminate the EtherChannel across the two physical Cisco Catalyst 6500/6800 Series Switches that make up the VSS leading to creating simplified loop-free Layer 2 topology.
In regards to Cisco Virtual Switching System which technology is needed between two switches for them to act as one network element and share control information and data traffic? A. trunk B. virtual port channel C. EtherChannel D. virtual switch link
D. virtual switch link
What is needed for Virtual Switching System "VSS"? A. portchannel B. trunk C. Virtual Switching Link "or VSL" D. Virtual trunk
C. Virtual Switching Link “or VSL”
Which will identify the master switch in stack wise? A. lower priority B. higher priority C. lower ID D. higher ID
B. higher priority
Which statement describes what happens if all VSL connections between the virtual switch members are lost?
A. Both virtual switch members cease to forward traffic.
B. The VSS transitions to the dual active recovery mode, and both virtual switch members continue to forward traffic independently.
C. The virtual switch members reload.
D. The VSS transitions to the dual active recovery mode, and only the new active virtual switch continues to forward traffic.
D. The VSS transitions to the dual active recovery mode, and only the new active virtual switch continues to forward traffic.
Which statement describes what happens when a switch enters dual active recovery mode?
A. The switch shuts down and waits for the VSL link to be restored before sending traffic.
B. All interfaces are shut down in the formerly active virtual switch member, but the new active virtual switch forwards traffic on all links.
C. The switch continues to forward traffic out all links and enables spanning tree on VSL link and all other links to prevent loops.
D. The VSS detects which system was last in active state and shuts down the other switch.
B. All interfaces are shut down in the formerly active virtual switch member, but the new active virtual switch forwards traffic on all links.
Which option is a benefit of using VSS?
A. reduces cost
B. simplifies configuration
C. provides two independent supervisors with two different control planes
D. removes the need for a First Hop Redundancy Protocol
D. removes the need for a First Hop Redundancy Protocol
When a switch is added to a stack, which switch automatically configures the new switch with the correct IOS? A. master B. peer C. adjacent D. slave
A. master
Which switch is chosen as the stack master during a stack master election?

B. the switch with the lowest stack member ID.
C. the switch with the lowest stack member priority value.
D. the switch with the highest stack member priority value.
D. the switch with the highest stack member priority value.
