Three of the 1,395 questions in this pack

Question 1

A frame that enters a switch fails the Frame Check Sequence. Which two interface counters are incremented? (Choose two.)

  1. input errors
  2. frame
  3. giants
  4. CRC
  5. runts
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A, D. input errors; CRC

When a frame fails the Frame Check Sequence (FCS), which is a CRC error, two counters are incremented: 'input errors' (the general category for errors on incoming frames) and 'CRC' (the specific counter for CRC/FCS failures). These counters track Layer 2 frame integrity issues on switch interfaces.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Frame counter tracks frame counts, not CRC errors specifically.
  • C. Giants counter tracks oversized frames, not CRC failures.
  • E. Runts counter tracks undersized frames, not CRC errors.

Question 2

How do TCP and UDP differ in the way that they establish a connection between two endpoints?

  1. TCP uses the three-way handshake, and UDP does not guarantee message delivery.
  2. TCP uses synchronization packets, and UDP uses acknowledgment packets.
  3. UDP provides reliable message transfer, and TCP is a connectionless protocol.
  4. UDP uses SYN, SYN ACK, and FIN bits in the frame header while TCP uses SYN, SYN ACK, and ACK bits.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. TCP uses the three-way handshake, and UDP does not guarantee message delivery.

TCP uses a three-way handshake (SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK) to establish a connection and guarantees message delivery through acknowledgments. UDP, being connectionless, does not establish a connection or guarantee delivery. Option A correctly identifies both of these fundamental differences between the protocols.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Both TCP and UDP use acknowledgment packets in their own ways; this distinction is imprecise.
  • C. UDP does not provide reliable transfer (TCP does), and UDP is connectionless (not TCP), this reverses the facts.
  • D. TCP uses SYN, SYN-ACK, and ACK bits; it does not use FIN in the handshake. UDP does not use SYN bits at all.

Question 3

Which 802.11 frame type is Association Response?

  1. management
  2. protected frame
  3. action
  4. control
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. management

Association Response is a management frame type in 802.11 wireless networks. Management frames handle connection establishment, authentication, and association between wireless devices and access points. Association Response specifically is sent by an AP in response to an association request from a client.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Protected frame refers to encrypted frames, not a frame type category.
  • C. Action frames are a specific management subtype used for signaling, not the category for Association Response.
  • D. Control frames handle RTS/CTS and acknowledgments, not association management.

    I was skeptical at first, but Certstash's Cisco 200-301 practice exams proved to be a valuable study tool. They cover all the essential topics thoroughly.

  11. Emily Parker –

    I used Cert Stash to prepare for my CCNA 200-301 exam after a friend recommended it. I didn’t know much about the exam before, but their materials were clear and helpful. It made studying easier, and I’d say it’s a good resource to check out.

  12. Randle –

    I previously used dumps from another provider, but they were outdated. Now I've used Cert Stash's dumps, and they are much better and the content is up to date.

What makes the CCNA hard

The CCNA 200-301 is one exam covering everything: network fundamentals, network access, IP connectivity, IP services, security fundamentals, and automation and programmability, all in 120 minutes, and it is the single gateway into every CCNP specialisation track. There is no second chance built in: wait five days and pay again.

One date to plan around: Cisco announced CCNA v2.0 on 20 May 2026. The exam code stays 200-301, but the blueprint changes on 3 February 2027 (the last day to sit the current v1.1 exam is 2 February 2027). If you are testing before February 2027, this pack is aligned to the exam you will sit.

1,395 practice questions for the CCNA 200-301, so the question style is familiar before test day.

About the exam

The Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) is Cisco's foundational networking certification. The 200-301 exam is the single comprehensive exam introduced in 2020 that replaced all previous CCNA specialisation tracks, covering network fundamentals, network access, IP connectivity, IP services, security fundamentals, and automation and programmability in one sitting. It is the standard entry-level credential for network administrator, NOC technician and junior network engineer roles, and the required foundation for all CCNP specialisation tracks. No formal prerequisites are required. Current blueprint v1.1; v2.0 takes effect 3 February 2027.
