Exam Description
The Implementing Cisco Edge Network Security (SENSS) (300-206) exam tests the knowledge of a network security engineer to configure and implement security on Cisco network perimeter edge devices such as a Cisco switch, Cisco router, and Cisco ASA firewall. This 90-minute exam consists of 65-75 questions and focuses on the technologies used to strengthen security of a network perimeter such as Network Address Translation (NAT), ASA policy and application inspect, and a zone-based firewall on Cisco routers. Candidates can prepare for this exam by taking the Cisco Edge Network Security (SENSS) course.

QUESTION 1
All 30 users on a single floor of a building are complaining about network slowness. After
investigating the access switch, the network administrator notices that the MAC address table is
full (10,000 entries) and all traffic is being flooded out of every port. Which action can the
administrator take to prevent this from occurring?
A. Configure port-security to limit the number of mac-addresses allowed on each port
B. Upgrade the switch to one that can handle 20,000 entries
C. Configure private-vlans to prevent hosts from communicating with one another
D. Enable storm-control to limit the traffic rate
E. Configure a VACL to block all IP traffic except traffic to and from that subnet
Answer: A
