a. write flash
b. save
c. write memory
d. copy config flash
e. None of the above
15. If there were a high number of collisions this may be caused by:
a. Possible unterminated link
b. Impedance mismatch
c. Too many hosts on the ring
d. Software error
e. Transceiver jabber
16. A network administrator has lost the passwords to their Cisco router. How can this password be retrieved?
a. Call the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC). Under software support, all passwords must be registered.
b. For the modular systems (AGS+, AGS+, MGS, CGS, IGS) and Cisco 7000: Power off router, move jumper on configuration register or toggle dipswitch to enter test
mode. When the router is powered back on, it will
automatically enter test mode, and the contents of NVRAM can be examined.
c. For the Cisco 3000 and Cisco 4000: Cold start or warm start the system and hit the break key while the system is booting. The router will go into ROM monitor
mode. Change the software registers, boot the router and check the contents of NVRAM.
