Here are the answers to Saturday's Cisco certification exam practice questions!

CCNA Exam:

A. Packets are dropped before the queue fills completely.

B. Packets are dropped only when the queue fills completely.

C. CoS and IP Precedence identify the packets to be dropped.

D. CoS and IP Precedence cannot be used with RED.

E. RED is effective with TCP-based traffic.

F. RED is effective with UDP-based traffic.

Answers: A, D, E. Random Early Detection (RED) does drop packets before the queue is completely full - that's where the "early detection" part comes in! RED doesn't take IP Precedence or CoS into account - that's where the "random" part comes in! : )

Both RED and WRED (Weighted Random Early Detection) are valid only with TCP-based traffic.

A. You can only use the "%" sign.

B. You can use any character.

C. You can use any non-numeric character.

D. You can use any character that doesn't appear in the login message itself.

Answer: D. While you do usually see the "%" sign used in login banner documentation, it's not required. What is required is that you don't use a character that appears in the login message.
