Juniper JN0-650 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

When 802.1X server fail fallback is enabled with the vlan-name feature, the switch provides a specific survival mechanism for both existing and new sessions when the RADIUS server becomes unreachable.

Existing Clients (Statement B): Clients that have already successfully authenticated are unaffected by the server's unavailability in the short term. They maintain their current network access until their specific re-authentication timer expires. Only then will the switch attempt to contact the server again and trigger the fallback action if the server remains down.

New Clients (Statement D): For any new device attempting to connect while the RADIUS server is down, the switch cannot perform a standard authentication. Under the vlan-name fallback configuration, these new clients are automatically placed into the specified fallback VLAN and granted access based on the local policy defined for that VLAN.

Why others are incorrect: Statement A is incorrect because disconnecting active users would cause unnecessary service disruption. Statement C is incorrect because new clients cannot "request" a VLAN during the 802.1X handshake; the switch assigns it based on the fallback configuration.

VSTP (VLAN Spanning Tree Protocol) is designed for interoperability with environments running Cisco’s Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+).

Per-VLAN Instances (Option E): The core function of VSTP is to maintain a separate spanning tree instance for every VLAN configured on the switch. This allows for different root bridges and different topologies per VLAN, enabling traffic load-balancing across various physical links.

BPDU Generation (Option A): Because each VLAN has its own instance, VSTP must send separate BPDUs for each VLAN. These BPDUs are tagged with the respective VLAN ID to ensure the receiving switch can process them for the correct instance.

Instance Limits (Option D): On many Juniper platforms, VSTP is limited to supporting a maximum of 253 unique spanning tree topologies (instances). If the number of VLANs exceeds this limit, additional VLANs will not have spanning tree protection unless migrated to a different protocol like MSTP.

Incorrect Statements: Option B is incorrect because VSTP is compatible with RSTP; it actually uses RSTP algorithms (Rapid-VSTP) by default in modern Junos versions to provide fast convergence. Option C is incorrect because STP or RSTP is usually the default spanning tree protocol on EX Series switches, not VSTP.

In OSPF, the election of a Designated Router (DR) and a Backup Designated Router (BDR) is mandatory on broadcast and non-broadcast multi-access (NBMA) network types to manage link-state database synchronization efficiently.

The exhibit shows that both device1 and device2 have their OSPF interface priority explicitly set to 0. According to the Junos OS 24.4 OSPF implementation:

Ineligibility (Priority 0): A router with a priority of 0 is strictly ineligible to be elected as a DR or BDR for that segment.

No Election Possible: When every router on a broadcast segment has a priority of 0, the election process cannot complete because there are no eligible candidates to fill the required roles.

State Behavior (Stuck in 2-Way): In OSPF adjacency formation, the 2-Way state indicates that bidirectional communication has been established (each router has seen itself in the other's Hello packets). However, to progress to the Exstart and Exchange states on a multi-access network, routers must first identify a DR and BDR.

Result: Since neither router can become the DR, they both wait indefinitely for a third party (with priority > 0) to take the lead. Consequently, the OSPF adjacency will be stuck in the 2-Way state. Adjacencies only reach the Full state with the DR and BDR; routers in a "DROther" role remain in 2-Way with each other.

Option A and D are incorrect because the router ID (IP address) only acts as a tiebreaker if priorities are equal and greater than 0. Option B is incorrect because routers cannot reach the Exstart state (where they negotiate master/slave for database exchange) without first having a DR/BDR elected.
