400-007 Exam Results

FCAPS stands for Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, and Security.

D (Authentication) is not a management category within the FCAPS framework.

Authentication is part of security functions but not a standalone FCAPS category.

Why other options are correct FCAPS components:

A: Configuration management

B: Security management

C: Performance management

E: Fault management

Inbound traffic engineering is best controlled by manipulating how external ASes view your routes.

AS path prepending on the 91.7.0.0/16 prefix towards AS 200 makes AS 500 prefer the less-prepended path through AS 100.

This allows granular inbound control for that specific prefix while leaving the rest of the traffic unchanged.

Why other options are incorrect:

B: Extended community is not used for direct inbound path manipulation.

C: Local preference affects outbound traffic, not inbound path selection by remote ASes.

D: MED is only compared between the same AS; it won ' t affect AS 500 ' s choice.

To support high-bandwidth, low-latency Layer 2 communication between DB Server 1 and DB Server 2, you must create a direct Layer 2 path between SW1 and SW2. Using REP (Resilient Ethernet Protocol) segments ensures loop-free Layer 2 operation without the drawbacks of STP convergence delays.

Option C is correct: Adding a third REP segment (Segment 3) directly between SW1 and SW2 isolates the traffic between the two DB servers and ensures deterministic behavior with fast convergence.

Option A (LACP with STP) introduces STP blocking and doesn’t align well with REP ' s control plane.

Option B and D: Overloading existing segments or splitting new links into existing REP segments does not offer the same direct path, bandwidth, or deterministic behavior.
