200-301 Question #1371: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is A: SW2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet0/1 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode active SW2(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet0/2 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode active. Option A is correct because 'mode active' is the LACP keyword that places the interface in an active negotiating state, actively sending LACP packets to form an EtherChannel. LACP uses the keywords 'active' and 'passive', and at least one side must be 'active' for the channel to

Question

Refer to the exhibit. Which configuration enables SW2 to establish an LACP EtherChannel? A. B. C. D.

Options

  • ASW2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet0/1 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode active SW2(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet0/2 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode active
  • BSW2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet0/1 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 2 mode desirable SW2(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet0/2 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 2 mode desirable
  • CSW2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet0/1 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode on SW2(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet0/2 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode on
  • DSW2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet0/1 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 2 mode auto SW2(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet0/2 SW2(config-if)#channel-group 2 mode auto

Explanation

Option A is correct because 'mode active' is the LACP keyword that places the interface in an active negotiating state, actively sending LACP packets to form an EtherChannel. LACP uses the keywords 'active' and 'passive', and at least one side must be 'active' for the channel to form. Both interfaces are placed in the same channel-group (1) with 'active' mode, satisfying the LACP requirement.
