At ValidExamDumps, we consistently monitor updates to the Cisco CCST-Networking exam questions by Cisco. Whenever our team identifies changes in the exam questions,exam objectives, exam focus areas or in exam requirements, We immediately update our exam questions for both PDF and online practice exams. This commitment ensures our customers always have access to the most current and accurate questions. By preparing with these actual questions, our customers can successfully pass the Cisco Certified Support Technician (CCST) Networking exam on their first attempt without needing additional materials or study guides.
Other certification materials providers often include outdated or removed questions by Cisco in their Cisco CCST-Networking exam. These outdated questions lead to customers failing their Cisco Certified Support Technician (CCST) Networking exam. In contrast, we ensure our questions bank includes only precise and up-to-date questions, guaranteeing their presence in your actual exam. Our main priority is your success in the Cisco CCST-Networking exam, not profiting from selling obsolete exam questions in PDF or Online Practice Test.
Which protocol allows you to securely upload files to another computer on the internet?
SFTP, or Secure File Transfer Protocol, is a protocol that allows for secure file transfer capabilities between networked hosts. It is a secure extension of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP). SFTP encrypts both commands and data, preventing passwords and sensitive information from being transmitted openly over the network. It is typically used for secure file transfers over the internet and is built on the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol1.
* What Is SFTP? (Secure File Transfer Protocol)
* How to Use SFTP to Safely Transfer Files: A Step-by-Step Guide
* Secure File Transfers: Best Practices, Protocols And Tools
The Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is a secure version of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) that uses SSH (Secure Shell) to encrypt all commands and data. This ensures that sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords, and files being transferred, are securely transmitted over the network.
* ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) is used for network diagnostics and is not designed for file transfer.
* NTP (Network Time Protocol) is used to synchronize clocks between computer systems and is not related to file transfer.
* HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is used for transmitting web pages over the internet and does not inherently provide secure file transfer capabilities.
Thus, the correct protocol that allows secure uploading of files to another computer on the internet is SFTP.

What is the purpose of assigning an IP address to the management VLAN interface on a Layer 2 switch?
The primary purpose of assigning an IP address to the management VLAN interface on a Layer 2 switch is to facilitate remote management of the switch. By configuring an IP address on the management VLAN, network administrators can access the switch's Command Line Interface (CLI) remotely using protocols such as Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH). This allows for convenient configuration changes, monitoring, and troubleshooting without needing physical access to the switch1.
* Understanding the Management VLAN
* Cisco - VLAN Configuration Guide
* Remote Management of Switches
Assigning an IP address to the management VLAN interface (often the VLAN 1 interface by default) on a Layer 2 switch allows network administrators to remotely manage the switch using protocols such as Telnet or SSH. This IP address does not affect the switch's ability to route traffic between VLANs but provides a means to access and configure the switch through its Command Line Interface (CLI).
* A: The switch does not act as a default gateway; this is typically a function of a Layer 3 device like a router.
* B: The switch does not resolve URLs; this is typically a function of DNS servers.
* C: The switch can relay DHCP requests but does not typically provide DHCP services itself; this is usually done by a dedicated DHCP server or router.
Thus, the correct answer is D. To enable access to the CLI on the switch through Telnet or SSH.

Which address is included in the 192.168.200.0/24 network?
* 192.168.200.0/24 Network: This subnet includes all addresses from 192.168.200.0 to 192.168.200.255. The /24 indicates a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, which allows for 256 addresses.
* 192.168.199.13: This address is in the 192.168.199.0/24 subnet, not the 192.168.200.0/24 subnet.
* 192.168.200.13: This address is within the 192.168.200.0/24 subnet.
* 192.168.201.13: This address is in the 192.168.201.0/24 subnet, not the 192.168.200.0/24 subnet.
* 192.168.1.13: This address is in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet, not the 192.168.200.0/24 subnet.

A user reports that a company website is not available. The help desk technician issues a tracert command to determine if the server hosting the website is reachable over the network. The output of the command is shown as follows:
What can you tell from the command output?
The tracert command output shows the path taken to reach the destination IP address, 192.168.1.10. The command output indicates:
* Hops 1 and 2 are successfully reached.
* Hop 3 times out, meaning the router at hop 3 did not respond to the tracert request. However, this does not necessarily indicate a problem with forwarding packets, as some routers may be configured to block or not respond to ICMP requests.
* Hops 4 and 5 are successfully reached, with hop 5 being the destination IP 192.168.1.10, indicating that the server is reachable.
Thus, the correct answer is C. The server with the address 192.168.1.10 is reachable over the network.
* Cisco Traceroute Command
* Understanding Traceroute
The tracert command output indicates that the server with the address 192.168.1.10 is reachable over the network. The asterisk (*) at hop 3 suggests that the probe sent to that hop did not return a response, which could be due to a variety of reasons such as a firewall blocking ICMP packets or the router at that hop being configured not to respond to ICMP requests. However, since the subsequent hops (4 and 5) are showing response times, it means that the packets are indeed getting through and the server is reachable12.

A local company requires two networks in two new buildings. The addresses used in these networks must be in the private network range.
Which two address ranges should the company use? (Choose 2.)
Note: You will receive partial credit for each correct selection.
The private IP address ranges that are set aside specifically for use within private networks and not routable on the internet are as follows:
Class A: 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
Class B: 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
Class C: 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
Given the options: A. 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 falls within the Class B private range. B. 192.16.0.0 to 192.16.255.255 is not a recognized private IP range. C. 11.0.0.0 to 11.255.255.255 is not a recognized private IP range. D. 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 falls within the Class C private range.
Therefore, the correct selections that the company should use for their private networks are A and D.
