In OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), routers exchange database information in multiple stages.

ExStart State (Correct Answer):

The Master/Slave relationship is determined in this phase.

The router with the higher Router ID becomes the Master, and the other becomes the Slave.

The Master initiates the exchange of Database Description (DD) packets.

2-way State (Incorrect): This state is reached when two routers recognize each other as neighbors but have not started database exchange.

Exchange State (Incorrect): The actual exchange of DD packets happens in this state, but the Master/Slave roles are already established in ExStart.

Full State (Incorrect): This is the final state where routers have synchronized their link-state databases.

Thus, the correct answer is D (ExStart).

In OSPF, a router in the backbone area (Area 0) has a full LSDB (Link-State Database) for all routers within the OSPF domain. This comprehensive LSDB allows the backbone area to communicate effectively with other areas by providing routing information about all connected OSPF routers, facilitating inter-area routing​.

Detailed Explanation:In a tree topology, nodes are arranged hierarchically with root nodes at the top and leaf nodes at the base. This structure is often used in larger networks because it supports scalability and easy addition of nodes. However, if a higher-level node (e.g., root or intermediate node) fails, all dependent nodes in its subtree lose connectivity. Therefore, faults at higher layers have a more significant impact than faults at the leaves. (Reference: HCIA-Datacom Training Material, Network Topology Types)

Detailed Explanation:The Priority Code Point (PCP) field in an 802.1Q VLAN tag is 3 bits long, which gives it a value range of 0 to 7. This field is used to indicate the priority of the frame, with higher values indicating higher priority​​.

An Ethernet II frame has a standard length range of 64 to 1518 bytes, including the Ethernet header. This range accounts for both the minimum frame size (to prevent collisions) and the maximum frame size (to avoid excessive delay). This specification is in line with IEEE 802.3 standards for Ethernet frames​.

Statement A (Correct): DR and BDR must form an adjacency relationship to maintain routing information exchange.

Statement B (Incorrect): The router with the higher priority is elected as DR, not the lower one.

Statement C (Incorrect): DR is elected by routers within a broadcast/multi-access network, not necessarily all routers in the same network segment.

Statement D (Correct): If two routers have the same priority, the one with the higher Router ID becomes the DR.

Detailed Explanation:An MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) header includes the following fields:

Label: Identifies the MPLS path.

TTL (Time to Live): Limits the lifetime of the MPLS packet.

EXP (Experimental): Used for QoS marking. The Tos (Type of Service) field is part of the IP header, not MPLS.

(Reference: HCIA-Datacom Training Material, MPLS Header Fields)

Comprehensive Explanation: In Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), the Message Age in the BPDU (Bridge Protocol Data Unit) sent by the root bridge is set to 0. As BPDUs are forwarded by non-root switches, the Message Age is incremented. This timer is used to ensure that outdated information is not propagated indefinitely through the network. If the Message Age reaches a configured maximum value, the BPDU is discarded, and the network topology is recalculated.

An access port is a switch port assigned to a single VLAN and used to connect end devices (such as PCs or printers).

Access ports do not send VLAN tags. They remove the VLAN tag before forwarding frames to the connected device because most end devices do not support VLAN tagging.

Option A (Incorrect): Tagged frames are sent only by trunk ports, not access ports.

Option B (Correct): The access port strips the VLAN tag before forwarding the frame to ensure compatibility with non-VLAN-aware devices.

Option C (Incorrect): VLAN tags are not exchanged between inbound and outbound ports.

Option D (Incorrect): The access port does not attach PVID information to the frame when sending it out.

Thus, the correct answer is B.
