Cisco 350-401 Practice Test 74

Question 730

A REST API returns data to any authenticated user even if the identity should have read-only permissions for some resource paths. The incident evidence is: A read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling.
  2. Enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal.
  3. Configure an appropriate enable secret or per-user privilege/authorization boundary rather than trusting line authentication for all commands.
  4. Use HTTPS/TLS with trusted server certificate validation for the management API.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The required correction is: Enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal. The underlying failure mechanism is: Authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: test authorized GET and forbidden POST/DELETE using low-privilege credentials.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Implementing bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and using idempotent operation handling would not enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal.

C:

The needed correction is to enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal.

D:

Using HTTPS/TLS with trusted server certificate validation for the management API would not enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal.

Question 731

A REST API returns data to any authenticated user even if the identity should have read-only permissions for some resource paths. The proposed remedy is: Enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal. Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Test authorized GET and forbidden POST/DELETE using low-privilege credentials.
  2. Inspect TLS certificate chain and successful authorized HTTPS session to RESTCONF.
  3. Test privileged configuration mode as both an authorized admin and a low-privilege operator.
  4. Simulate HTTP429 responses and verify the script delays retries without duplicate objects.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Test authorized GET and forbidden POST/DELETE using low-privilege credentials. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: a read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This test measures a different behavior: Inspect TLS certificate chain and successful authorized HTTPS session to RESTCONF. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: test authorized GET and forbidden POST/DELETE using low-privilege credentials.

C:

This test measures a different behavior: Test privileged configuration mode as both an authorized admin and a low-privilege operator. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: test authorized GET and forbidden POST/DELETE using low-privilege credentials.

D:

This test measures a different behavior: Simulate HTTP429 responses and verify the script delays retries without duplicate objects. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: test authorized GET and forbidden POST/DELETE using low-privilege credentials.

Question 732

A REST API returns data to any authenticated user even if the identity should have read-only permissions for some resource paths. During troubleshooting: A read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods. Which underlying cause best explains the recorded behavior?

  1. Privilege separation or enable-secret control is missing or overly permissive.
  2. The client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design.
  3. Authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations.
  4. The API client disables TLS peer verification and cannot authenticate the server.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The actual technical cause is: Authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations. It specifically explains the observation: a read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods. The correcting configuration is: enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: A read-only operations user can enter configuration mode without authorization. Here the recorded observation is: a read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods. The applicable cause is: authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations.

B:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: Bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice. Here the recorded observation is: a read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods. The applicable cause is: authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations.

D:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: A client ignores invalid certificates and sends credentials to an untrusted management endpoint. Here the recorded observation is: a read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods. The applicable cause is: authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations.

Question 733

A REST API returns data to any authenticated user even if the identity should have read-only permissions for some resource paths. The initial change is: Enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal. Which continuing control most directly prevents a recurrence of the documented problem: A read-only automation identity can invoke configuration-changing HTTP methods.

  1. Rotate certificates and pin/validate appropriate CAs without disabling TLS checks.
  2. Review privilege escalation and role-based access along with account login controls.
  3. Track API request limits, response codes and correlation IDs in automation logging.
  4. Audit API permissions at least privilege and use separate write-capable accounts.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The continuing protective control is: Audit API permissions at least privilege and use separate write-capable accounts. This addresses the underlying failure mechanism: authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations. The corresponding operational check is: test authorized GET and forbidden POST/DELETE using low-privilege credentials.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That control reduces a separate risk: The API client disables TLS peer verification and cannot authenticate the server. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations. The specific required safeguard is: audit API permissions at least privilege and use separate write-capable accounts.

B:

That control reduces a separate risk: Privilege separation or enable-secret control is missing or overly permissive. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations. The specific required safeguard is: audit API permissions at least privilege and use separate write-capable accounts.

C:

That control reduces a separate risk: The client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: authentication succeeds but API authorization does not restrict modifying operations. The specific required safeguard is: audit API permissions at least privilege and use separate write-capable accounts.

Question 734

A network script stores an API bearer token in a Git repository and uses it to administer Catalyst Center. The incident evidence is: An unauthorized collaborator reuses the committed token to call management APIs. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Use HTTPS/TLS with trusted server certificate validation for the management API.
  2. Move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential.
  3. Configure an appropriate enable secret or per-user privilege/authorization boundary rather than trusting line authentication for all commands.
  4. Implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The required correction is: Move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential. The underlying failure mechanism is: The API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Using HTTPS/TLS with trusted server certificate validation for the management API would not move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential.

C:

The needed correction is to move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential.

D:

Implementing bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and using idempotent operation handling would not move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential.

Question 735

A network script stores an API bearer token in a Git repository and uses it to administer Catalyst Center. The proposed remedy is: Move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential. Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Simulate HTTP429 responses and verify the script delays retries without duplicate objects.
  2. Inspect TLS certificate chain and successful authorized HTTPS session to RESTCONF.
  3. Test privileged configuration mode as both an authorized admin and a low-privilege operator.
  4. Verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: an unauthorized collaborator reuses the committed token to call management APIs.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This test measures a different behavior: Simulate HTTP429 responses and verify the script delays retries without duplicate objects. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

B:

This test measures a different behavior: Inspect TLS certificate chain and successful authorized HTTPS session to RESTCONF. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

C:

This test measures a different behavior: Test privileged configuration mode as both an authorized admin and a low-privilege operator. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

Question 736

  1. The client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design.
  2. Privilege separation or enable-secret control is missing or overly permissive.
  3. The API client disables TLS peer verification and cannot authenticate the server.
  4. The API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The actual technical cause is: The API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked. It specifically explains the observation: an unauthorized collaborator reuses the committed token to call management APIs. The correcting configuration is: move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: Bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice. Here the recorded observation is: an unauthorized collaborator reuses the committed token to call management APIs. The applicable cause is: the API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked.

The applicable cause is: the API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked.

Question 737

A network script stores an API bearer token in a Git repository and uses it to administer Catalyst Center. Select TWO complementary decisions: the direct technical remedy and a safeguard against recurrence. A verification-only step cannot substitute for either action.

  1. Enforce per-resource API authorization/roles and check the effective action scope for each authenticated principal.
  2. Move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential.
  3. Require token expiry, scoped service identities, secret scanning and rotation processes.
  4. Track API request limits, response codes and correlation IDs in automation logging.
  5. Use HTTPS/TLS with trusted server certificate validation for the management API.

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

The required correction is: Move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential. The underlying failure mechanism is: The API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

C:

The continuing protective control is: Require token expiry, scoped service identities, secret scanning and rotation processes. This addresses the underlying failure mechanism: the API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked. The corresponding operational check is: verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Resource-level authorization limits what a stolen token can do, but it does not revoke the bearer credential already committed to Git.

D:

That control reduces a separate risk: The client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: the API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked. The specific required safeguard is: require token expiry, scoped service identities, secret scanning and rotation processes.

E:

TLS protects transport to the management API; it does not remove or rotate a token exposed in repository history.

Question 738

A network API is rate-limited, and a retry script sends immediate repeated POSTs without respecting status 429, creating duplicate configuration attempts. The incident evidence is: Bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling.
  2. Use HTTPS/TLS with trusted server certificate validation for the management API.
  3. Move the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential.
  4. Rate-limit or classify SNMP management-plane traffic through appropriate CoPP/management controls.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The required correction is: Implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling. The underlying failure mechanism is: The client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: simulate HTTP429 responses and verify the script delays retries without duplicate objects.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Using HTTPS/TLS with trusted server certificate validation for the management API would not implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling.

C:

Moving the token to a protected runtime secret store and rotate the exposed credential would not implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling.

D:

Rate-limit or classify SNMP management-plane traffic through appropriate CoPP/management controls would not implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling.

Question 739

A network API is rate-limited, and a retry script sends immediate repeated POSTs without respecting status 429, creating duplicate configuration attempts. The proposed remedy is: Implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling. Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Compare CPU load, CoPP counters and authorized monitoring success before and after tuning.
  2. Inspect TLS certificate chain and successful authorized HTTPS session to RESTCONF.
  3. Simulate HTTP429 responses and verify the script delays retries without duplicate objects.
  4. Verify repository history no longer provides active usable token access and the rotated token works under approved scope.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Simulate HTTP429 responses and verify the script delays retries without duplicate objects. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice.

Question 740

A network API is rate-limited, and a retry script sends immediate repeated POSTs without respecting status 429, creating duplicate configuration attempts. During troubleshooting: Bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice. Which underlying cause best explains the recorded behavior?

  1. Management traffic is processed in the CPU and lacks suitable control-plane rate controls.
  2. The API bearer token was embedded in accessible source code and never revoked.
  3. The client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design.
  4. The API client disables TLS peer verification and cannot authenticate the server.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The actual technical cause is: The client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design. It specifically explains the observation: bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice. The correcting configuration is: implement bounded exponential backoff, honor Retry-After where provided and use idempotent operation handling.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: A small volume of repeated SNMP requests causes control-plane slowdown without link saturation. Here the recorded observation is: bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice. The applicable cause is: the client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design.

B:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: An unauthorized collaborator reuses the committed token to call management APIs. Here the recorded observation is: bursting retries overwhelm the controller while some POST requests complete twice. The applicable cause is: the client treats rate limiting as an immediate failure loop without safe retry/idempotency design.
