Cisco Updated 400-007 Exam Questions and Answers by melanie

B (Weighted Random Early Detection - WRED):WRED proactively drops packets before buffers are full to avoid global synchronization in TCP traffic and prevent tail drops, thus improving overall TCP performance under congestion.

Other options explained:

A: WFQ provides fairness but does not proactively avoid congestion.

C: LLQ is for delay-sensitive traffic, not congestion avoidance for TCP.

D: FIFO offers no QoS or congestion control.

A (Posture assessment with remediation VLAN):Posture assessment checks endpoint compliance (such as AV definitions). Non-compliant devices are placed into a remediation VLAN where they can update before regaining normal network access.

Other options explained:

B: SGTs provide segmentation but are not posture-specific.

C: dACLs with SGTs handle policy enforcement, but posture control is required for AV compliance.

D: Quarantine VLAN isolates devices but doesn’t automate remediation.

A (Evaluate bandwidth utilization and connection quality):Before VoIP deployment, a readiness assessment must include bandwidth analysis, latency, jitter, and packet loss to ensure call quality.

Other options explained:

B: DID lines relate to telephony features but not network readiness.

C: Session table limits are unrelated to VoIP readiness.

D: Anomaly detection is security-related, not core network readiness.

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) provides fast failure detection independent of routing protocols. It can be integrated with multiple protocols to accelerate convergence:

A: IS-IS supports BFD for fast hello processing.

B: BFD can track static routes via routing tracking features.

D: EIGRP supports BFD for link failure detection.

E: BGP supports BFD for rapid session teardown.

Why option C is incorrect:

C: RIP does not natively support BFD integration.
