On a Cisco Catalyst switch, what are the Layer 3 interfaces called that are used to accomplish inter-VLAN routing?

• SVI
• SIP
• Trunk interfaces
• RIP 

  EXPLANATION

VLANs divide broadcast domains in a LAN environment. Whenever hosts in one VLAN need to communicate with hosts in another VLAN, the traffic must be routed between them. This is known as inter-VLAN routing. On Catalyst switches it is accomplished by creating Layer 3 interfaces known as Switch Virtual Interfaces (SVI).

What is not true about HSRP?

What is not true about HSRP?

• Preempt is set by default
• It is described in RFC 2281
• Can track an interface for failover
• Cisco proprietary protocol 

 EXPLANATION

Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) is a Cisco proprietary routing protocol that allows host computers on the Internet to use multiple routers that act as a single virtual router, maintaining connectivity even if the first hop router fails, because other routers are on "hot standby" - ready to go. HSRP's preempt has to be manually set with the "standby vlan-number preempt" command in the Vlan interface configuration mode.
