An engineer wants to know if there is a way to determine remotely what is the optical zoom of the camera directly connected to a Cisco TelePresence SX20. Which two methods will retrieve this…
The correct answer is C. From the CLI, run xstatus D. From the web GUI, choose Configuration > System Status > Camera. To retrieve the current optical zoom level of a camera connected to a Cisco TelePresence SX20, engineers use xstatus from the CLI or the System Status section in the web GUI.

Why each option
To retrieve the current optical zoom level of a camera connected to a Cisco TelePresence SX20, engineers use xstatus from the CLI or the System Status section in the web GUI.
The xconfig command reads stored configuration values, not live operational status such as current optical zoom.
The path Configuration > Camera > Status does not exist in the SX20 web GUI; the correct path for camera status is Configuration > System Status > Camera.
The xstatus command on the Cisco SX20 CLI queries the current operational state of the device, including real-time camera parameters such as optical zoom position, making it the correct CLI method.
In the SX20 web GUI, navigating to Configuration > System Status > Camera displays the current camera state including zoom level, which is retrieved from the same status data exposed by xstatus.
The xcommand camera namespace is used to send control commands to the camera (e.g., move, ramp), not to read its current zoom state.
