Passed BCMSN - Is a adaptive test?

2001-01-10 Thread Giggsy

Hi All

I have passed BCMSN with a score of 932. Really thanks to the group for
answering some of my questions.

I am wondering is the BCMSN exam an adaptive one? E.g., i have a qns and i
think i got that one wrong and i have several other same type of questions
follow straight one another! This happens twice!!!

Anyway, thr exam is quite okie except there are some really hard questions

I have Boson and COLT practice questions and use the following books:

The Official Course book and "Cisco LAN Switching" by Kennedy Clark.



Regards

BCMSN Questions - Pls Help

2001-01-02 Thread Giggsy

Hi

While i am preparing for my Switching 2.0 Exam, i encounter the following 2
questions while i do the pracice exams which have different answers. Would
appreciate if someone could enlighten me what should be the CORRECT answer.

Question 1
==
The ACME company is a small manufacturing company that wants to interconnect
users on multiple floors in the same building. To date, the company has only
15 employees but plans to triple in number in the next year. Users require
access to large graphic files on the workgroup servers. What is the most
appropriate device for the access layer?

A. Catalyst 8500 series switch
B. Catalyst 5500 series switch with an internal RSM
C. Catalyst 1900 series switch with 10 BaseT ports
D. Catalyst 2900 series switch with 100 BaseTX ports

COLT said that the answer should be D BUT the course book's answer is C. So
which one should it be???

Question 2
===
how to find out what error messages were being sent to the other out-bands
besides the console port.

So what is the answer for this?


Hope someone can help. Thanks


Regards
