Cisco 350-401 Practice Test 59

Question 580

A Cisco IOS XE automation client needs HTTPS-accessible YANG data via RESTCONF, but the router has only NETCONF over SSH enabled. The incident evidence is: An HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Use supported Cisco Catalyst Center assurance telemetry, inventory and path trace workflows.
  2. Use the supported NETCONF lock/edit-config/commit workflow to apply candidate changes to the running datastore after reviewing the proposed edit.
  3. Enable supported NETCONF on the device with proper SSH, credentials and YANG capability negotiation.
  4. Enable supported RESTCONF and HTTPS/AAA prerequisites, then make a correctly authenticated RESTCONF request.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The required correction is: Enable supported RESTCONF and HTTPS/AAA prerequisites, then make a correctly authenticated RESTCONF request. The underlying failure mechanism is: NETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Required device integration, credentials or telemetry sources for Assurance are incomplete. NETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service.

B:

The change exists only in the candidate datastore because no supported NETCONF commit has been executed. NETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service.

C:

The device lacks effective NETCONF service or proper transport/session setup. NETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service.

Question 581

A Cisco IOS XE automation client needs HTTPS-accessible YANG data via RESTCONF, but the router has only NETCONF over SSH enabled. The proposed remedy is: Enable supported RESTCONF and HTTPS/AAA prerequisites, then make a correctly authenticated RESTCONF request. Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status.
  2. Establish a NETCONF session, inspect hello capabilities and read the intended datastore.
  3. Read the advertised :candidate capability, issue the authorized commit and inspect get-config of running to confirm the intended change.
  4. Inspect an affected client path/health issue and drill into specific device/interface evidence.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: an HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This test measures a different behavior: Establish a NETCONF session, inspect hello capabilities and read the intended datastore. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status.

C:

This test measures a different behavior: Read the advertised :candidate capability, issue the authorized commit and inspect get-config of running to confirm the intended change. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status.

D:

For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status.

Question 582

A Cisco IOS XE automation client needs HTTPS-accessible YANG data via RESTCONF, but the router has only NETCONF over SSH enabled. During troubleshooting: An HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds. Which underlying cause best explains the recorded behavior?

  1. Required device integration, credentials or telemetry sources for Assurance are incomplete.
  2. NETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service.
  3. The device lacks effective NETCONF service or proper transport/session setup.
  4. The change exists only in the candidate datastore because no supported NETCONF commit has been executed.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The actual technical cause is: NETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service. It specifically explains the observation: an HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds. The correcting configuration is: enable supported RESTCONF and HTTPS/AAA prerequisites, then make a correctly authenticated RESTCONF request.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: An administrator assumes inventory registration alone automatically populates all assurance metrics without telemetry collection. Here the recorded observation is: an HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds. The applicable cause is: nETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service.

C:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: SSH login works but NETCONF client cannot complete hello/capability negotiation. Here the recorded observation is: an HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds. The applicable cause is: nETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service.

D:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: The candidate edit is successful, but operational interface configuration remains at its old value. Here the recorded observation is: an HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds. The applicable cause is: nETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service.

Question 583

A Cisco IOS XE automation client needs HTTPS-accessible YANG data via RESTCONF, but the router has only NETCONF over SSH enabled. The initial change is: Enable supported RESTCONF and HTTPS/AAA prerequisites, then make a correctly authenticated RESTCONF request. Which continuing control most directly prevents a recurrence of the documented problem: An HTTPS RESTCONF request receives a service error even though a NETCONF SSH session succeeds.

  1. Apply AAA and management ACL controls around NETCONF rather than opening arbitrary SSH access.
  2. Monitor management plane HTTPS certificates, ACL and API authorization on RESTCONF endpoints.
  3. Check capabilities and candidate support per IOS XE release; lock, validate, commit and unlock using reviewed change procedures.
  4. Monitor telemetry coverage and data freshness before basing incidents on health scores.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The continuing protective control is: Monitor management plane HTTPS certificates, ACL and API authorization on RESTCONF endpoints. This addresses the underlying failure mechanism: nETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service. The corresponding operational check is: send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That control reduces a separate risk: The device lacks effective NETCONF service or proper transport/session setup. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: nETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service. The specific required safeguard is: monitor management plane HTTPS certificates, ACL and API authorization on RESTCONF endpoints.

C:

That control reduces a separate risk: The change exists only in the candidate datastore because no supported NETCONF commit has been executed. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: nETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service. The specific required safeguard is: monitor management plane HTTPS certificates, ACL and API authorization on RESTCONF endpoints.

D:

That control reduces a separate risk: Required device integration, credentials or telemetry sources for Assurance are incomplete. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: nETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service. The specific required safeguard is: monitor management plane HTTPS certificates, ACL and API authorization on RESTCONF endpoints.

Question 584

A Catalyst 9300 running a supported IOS XE release advertises the NETCONF :candidate capability and has candidate-datastore mode enabled. A YANG configuration edit is visible in the candidate datastore, but the active running configuration is unchanged. The incident evidence is: The candidate edit is successful, but operational interface configuration remains at its old value. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Use supported Catalyst Center template/provisioning workflow with target device scope and staged validation.
  2. Enable supported NETCONF on the device with proper SSH, credentials and YANG capability negotiation.
  3. Use the supported NETCONF lock/edit-config/commit workflow to apply candidate changes to the running datastore after reviewing the proposed edit.
  4. Enable supported RESTCONF and HTTPS/AAA prerequisites, then make a correctly authenticated RESTCONF request.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The required correction is: Use the supported NETCONF lock/edit-config/commit workflow to apply candidate changes to the running datastore after reviewing the proposed edit. The underlying failure mechanism is: The change exists only in the candidate datastore because no supported NETCONF commit has been executed. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: read the advertised :candidate capability, issue the authorized commit and inspect get-config of running to confirm the intended change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The change was drafted but device/site scope and deployment were not completed. The change exists only in the candidate datastore because no supported NETCONF commit has been executed.

B:

The device lacks effective NETCONF service or proper transport/session setup. The change exists only in the candidate datastore because no supported NETCONF commit has been executed.

D:

NETCONF availability does not automatically enable the separate HTTPS RESTCONF service. The change exists only in the candidate datastore because no supported NETCONF commit has been executed.

Question 585

Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Read the advertised :candidate capability, issue the authorized commit and inspect get-config of running to confirm the intended change.
  2. Establish a NETCONF session, inspect hello capabilities and read the intended datastore.
  3. Send a GET to the supported RESTCONF data path and inspect JSON/XML and HTTP status.
  4. Preview intended differences and verify running configuration and compliance on a pilot device.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Read the advertised :candidate capability, issue the authorized commit and inspect get-config of running to confirm the intended change. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: the candidate edit is successful, but operational interface configuration remains at its old value.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Question 586

A campus switch must allow remote SSH administration only through individual named operators rather than a shared privileged VTY password. The incident evidence is: An operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Set the required hostname/domain and generate supported SSH host keys before limiting VTY access.
  2. Enable SSH version 2 with appropriate local/domain keys and restrict VTY transport input to SSH.
  3. Create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH.
  4. Configure supported login security controls such as quiet-mode thresholds and login block-for on the appropriate IOS release.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The required correction is: Create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH. The underlying failure mechanism is: The VTY lines use line password login rather than `login local` against named accounts. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: inspect VTY authentication settings and verify a named account succeeds while an unknown account is rejected.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Setting the required hostname/domain and generating supported SSH host keys would not create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH.

B:

Enabling SSH version 2 with appropriate local/domain keys and restricting VTY transport input to SSH would not create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH.

D:

Configuring supported login security controls such as quiet-mode thresholds and login block-for on the appropriate IOS release would not create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH.

Question 587

A campus switch must allow remote SSH administration only through individual named operators rather than a shared privileged VTY password. The proposed remedy is: Create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH. Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Attempt Telnet and SSH connections from an approved host and confirm only encrypted SSH is accepted.
  2. Generate controlled failed logins and confirm a temporary lockout with useful audit events.
  3. Inspect SSH server version/key status and complete a secure login from an authorized station.
  4. Inspect VTY authentication settings and verify a named account succeeds while an unknown account is rejected.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Inspect VTY authentication settings and verify a named account succeeds while an unknown account is rejected. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: an operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability.

Question 588

A campus switch must allow remote SSH administration only through individual named operators rather than a shared privileged VTY password. During troubleshooting: An operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability. Which underlying cause best explains the recorded behavior?

  1. Login attack mitigation thresholds and enforcement were not configured for the VTY service.
  2. The SSH server lacks required host key material or device identity prerequisites.
  3. The VTY lines use line password login rather than `login local` against named accounts.
  4. VTY transport input still permits Telnet despite SSH being configured.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The actual technical cause is: The VTY lines use line password login rather than `login local` against named accounts. It specifically explains the observation: an operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability. The correcting configuration is: create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: An external host attempts unlimited SSH passwords without temporary throttling. Here the recorded observation is: an operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability. The applicable cause is: the VTY lines use line password login rather than `login local` against named accounts.

B:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: SSH cannot start even though a local account and VTY login method exist. Here the recorded observation is: an operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability. The applicable cause is: the VTY lines use line password login rather than `login local` against named accounts.

D:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: The router still accepts plaintext Telnet sessions after the administrator creates an RSA key. Here the recorded observation is: an operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability. The applicable cause is: the VTY lines use line password login rather than `login local` against named accounts.

Question 589

A campus switch must allow remote SSH administration only through individual named operators rather than a shared privileged VTY password. The initial change is: Create local administrator usernames with appropriately protected secrets and make the VTY lines use local login under SSH. Which continuing control most directly prevents a recurrence of the documented problem: An operator logs in with a shared line password without any user-specific accountability.

  1. Review transport-input policy and management-path encryption after image upgrades.
  2. Audit named account lifecycle and remove unused break-glass credentials.
  3. Tune login blocking to preserve approved emergency access and monitor lockout alerts.
  4. Plan key regeneration and supported minimum key length during device replacement.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The continuing protective control is: Audit named account lifecycle and remove unused break-glass credentials. This addresses the underlying failure mechanism: the VTY lines use line password login rather than `login local` against named accounts.
