350-501 · Question #67

Refer to the exhibit. Which statement describes the effect of this configuration?

The correct answer is C. It matches HTTP traffic for use in a policy map. The configuration defines an extended access list to identify HTTP and HTTPS traffic, and then creates a class map that uses this access list to classify said traffic, preparing it for use in a QoS policy map.

Why each option

The configuration defines an extended access list to identify HTTP and HTTPS traffic, and then creates a class map that uses this access list to classify said traffic, preparing it for use in a QoS policy map.

AIt applies a service policy to all interfaces remarking HTTP traffic

The provided configuration only defines how HTTP traffic is classified using an ACL and class map; it does not include the creation or application of a service policy to interfaces, nor does it specify any remarking action.

BIt creates an ACL named WEB that filters HTTP traffic.

While an ACL named `WEB` is created to identify HTTP traffic, an ACL by itself does not actively filter (permit or deny) traffic on an interface unless it is explicitly applied with `ip access-group` commands. In this context, it's used for matching within a class map.

CIt matches HTTP traffic for use in a policy mapCorrect

The configuration first defines an extended access list named `WEB` to identify traffic destined for TCP ports 80 (www) and 443. Subsequently, a `class-map match-all HTTP` is created, which uses this `WEB` access list to classify or match the identified HTTP and HTTPS traffic. This classification is the foundational step for applying Quality of Service (QoS) actions within a `policy-map`.

DIt modifies the default policy map to allow all HTTP traffic through the router

This configuration creates a new class map and an access list; it does not modify any default policy map. Furthermore, it defines traffic matching criteria, not actions that 'allow' traffic through the router.
