Refer to the exhibit.
A technician has configured the FastEthernet 0/1 interface on Sw11 as an access link in VLAN 1.
Based on the output from the show vlan brief command issued on Sw12, what will be the result of
making this change on Sw11?
A.
Only the hosts in VLAN 1 on the two switches will be able to communicate with each other.
B.
The hosts in all VLANs on the two switches will be able to communicate with each other.
C.
Only the hosts in VLAN 10 and VLAN 15 on the two switches will be able to communicate with
each other.
D.
Hosts will not be able to communicate between the two switches.
Explanation:
VLANs are local to each switch’s database, and VLAN information is not passed
between switches. Trunks carry traffic from all VLANs to and from the switch by default but can be
configured to carry only specified VLAN traffic. Trunk links are required to pass VLAN information
between switches. So sw 11 port should be trunk not access port.
One switch in access and the other one with trunk will only pass native vlan that is NOT 802.1q tagged, and by default it is vlan 1 but there’s no host in vlan 1 on the show command so “D” is correct. Trunk links are required to pass 802.1q VLAN information between switches.
