SCP-500 Test 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: Calculate the average rate of traffic for a router and track the interfaces that are polled using SNMP by Orion NPM every 5 minutes, with recent values of 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 octets.
- 26 Kbps (Correct answer)
- 16 Kbps
- 1 Kbps
- 3 Kbps
Correct answer: 26 Kbps
The correct answer: <br> 26 Kbps
Question 2: In the calculation of Percent Utilization, which two variables are used? (Select two.)
- bits per second (Correct answer)
- configured bandwidth (Correct answer)
- interface discards
- packets per second
Correct answer: bits per second
The correct answer: <br> configured bandwidth <br> and <br> bits per second
Question 3: You had to migrate Orion to a new server with a new IP address due to a server crash. Which two adjustments should you make to the new server and IP address to ensure that Orion works properly? (Select two.)
- change the IP address specified in the snmpd. conf file on the Orion server
- update the destination IP address for Syslog and SNMP traps on your managed devices (Correct answer)
- update the access control lists (ACLs) that restrict management protocols (Correct answer)
- updates the source address for Net Flow packets exported to Orion
Correct answer: update the destination IP address for Syslog and SNMP traps on your managed devices
The correct answer: <br> update the access control lists (ACLs) that restrict management protocols <br> and <br> update the destination IP address for Syslog and SNMP traps on your managed devices
Question 4: Your Internet connection is being monitored, and your ISP has assured you 512 Kbps. Your connection speed has been stable at 256 Kbps for a long time, but it has never exceeded this speed, according to historical data. <br> What exactly does this mean?
- the NAT table is overloaded
- the ISP has misconfigured the link. (Correct answer)
- QoS is dropping low priority traffic
- the WAN router is misconfigured.
Correct answer: the ISP has misconfigured the link.
The correct answer: <br> the ISP has misconfigured the link.
Question 5: To collect utilization statistics, which protocol should a network engineer enable on routers and switches?
- SNMP (Correct answer)
- WMI
- ICMP
- SMTP
Correct answer: SNMP
The correct answer: <br> SNMP
Question 6: Numerous Orion NPM servers are now monitoring multiple locations from a single location in your current configuration. This results in erroneous data and increased WAN bandwidth usage. What are the two most effective approaches to dealing with this problem? (Select two.)
- deploy an additional Orion Poller
- deploy an Orion Hot Standby
- deploy Orion Enterprise Operations Console (Correct answer)
- deploy Orion NPMat each remote location (Correct answer)
Correct answer: deploy Orion Enterprise Operations Console
The correct answer: <br> deploy Orion NPMat each remote location <br> and <br> deploy Orion Enterprise Operations Console
Question 7: How does the Orion Universal Device Poller (UnDP) keep track of statistics that aren't part of the standard Orion NPM MIB database?
- by automatically searching the common MIB repositories and updating Orion
- by manually associating the device'sOID to Orion (Correct answer)
- by manually compiling the MIB into the Orion MIB database
- by keeping a copy of the device's MIB on the Orion NPM Server
Correct answer: by manually associating the device'sOID to Orion
The correct answer: <br> by manually associating the device'sOID to Orion
Question 8: Which two performance metrics may a proper QoS implementation affect? (Select two.)
- latency (Correct answer)
- marking
- jitter (Correct answer)
- shaping
Correct answer: latency
The correct answer: <br> jitter <br> and <br> latency
Question 9: Due to the large number of devices sending Syslog messages, a network engineer notices that the Syslog server's database is rapidly growing in size. What should the engineer do to keep database growth under control?
- configure the devices and the Syslog server to use SNMPv3
- configure the Syslog server to capture SNMP traps instead of Syslog
- configure the devices and the Syslog server to use TCP-based Syslog
- configure the Syslog server to discard unwanted messages (Correct answer)
Correct answer: configure the Syslog server to discard unwanted messages
The correct answer: <br> configure the Syslog server to discard unwanted messages
