A large multinational financial institution has contracted you to design a new full-stack wired and wireless network for their new 6-story regional office building. The bottom two floors of this facility will be retail space for a large banking branch. The upper floors will be carpeted office space for corporate users, each floor being approximately 100,000 sq ft (9290 sq m). Data centers are all offsite and will be out of scope for this project. The customer is underserved by its existing L2- based network infrastructure and would like to take advantage of modem best practices in the new design. The network should be fully resilient and fault-tolerant, with dynamic segmentation at the edge.
The retail space will include public guest Wi-Fi access. Retail associates will have corporate tablets for customer service, and there will be a mix of wired and wireless devices throughout the retail floors. The corporate users will primarily use wireless for connectivity, but several wired clients, printers, and hard VoIP phones will be in use.
The customer is also planning on renovating the corporate office space in order to take advantage of 'smart office' technology. These improvements will drive blue-dot wayfinding, presence analytics, and other location-based services.
The client is looking to utilize lower-cost OS-CX switches in their wiring closets. They calculate that each closet will need a stack of qty 6 PoE (AT) and qty 4 Gigabit Ethernet switches stacked with low-cost DACs.
Which series switch should you recommend?

• A. CX 6000
• B. CX 6200M
• C. CX 6100
• D. CX 6300F

Manufacturing A.B.C. is an international, mid-sized company specializing in producing industrial equipment. They have been in the market for over two decades and have established themselves as a reputable player in their industry. However, due to rapid technological advancements, their current network infrastructure is outdated and struggling to keep up with the demands of modern manufacturing processes.
Manufacturing A.B.C.'s network is a mix of multi-vendor legacy wired and wireless components, causing frequent downtime and hampering their production efficiency. The aging equipment leads to slow data transfer rates, unreliable connectivity, and increased vulnerability to cyber threats.
Fiber Cabling should be also upgraded as mostly OM2 is being used.
Compounding the network issues, the recent departure of the CTO has left the company without a clear direction for the network refresh project. There is a lack of consensus among the management team regarding the scope, budget, and timeline for the upgrade.
The primary objectives of the manufacturing customer are as follows:
- Improve network performance and reliability to enhance production processes and minimize downtime
- Enhance network security to protect sensitive data and intellectual property
- Streamline communication and collaboration among different departments within the organization
- Ensure scalability to accommodate future growth and technology advancements Manufacturing A.B.C. seeks a comprehensive network refresh that includes the following components:
- Upgrading the wired infrastructure to high-speed Ethernet switches to support increased data transfer rates and reduce latency
- Implementing a robust wireless solution with enterprise-grade access points to provide seamless connectivity across the manufacturing facility
- Centralized network management tools to simplify administration and monitoring of the network Expectations:
The customer expects the network refresh project to be handled efficiently, with minimal disruption to their ongoing operations. They are looking for a reliable and experienced network solutions provider who can understand their unique manufacturing requirements and deliver a customized solution that aligns with their budget constraints. The manufacturing customer is keen on receiving clear project proposals and support in decision-making, given the recent change of the CTO.
Your role as a network solutions provider is to address their concerns, offer expert guidance, and present a well-defined plan to meet their objectives effectively.
Manufacturing A.B.C. needs to regulate various traffic types with QoS and the architect decided to use DWRR instead of SP queuing. Which switches support DWRR? (Choose two.)

• A. CX 8360
• B. CX 6100
• C. CX 6200
• D. CX 4100

The client would like to ensure redundant RADIUS resources in each of their three geographical regions (AMER, EMEA, and APAC). A large office location is available in each region with sufficient VMware resources available.
- Each region has 5,000 clients, all of which will need to do either 802.1x wired or wireless authentications as well as 802.1x authentication for a single personal device on Wi-Fi.
- All of the non-personal devices will also need to validate health with a local agent.
- A total of 500 guests are expected to be connected on average with a maximum of 700 simultaneous connections making use of Guest Portal for access to the Internet.
- TACACS authentication will also be configured for a total of 1,200 evenly dispersed NADs.
In order to support virtual IPs and server redundancy in each region how many Virtual Policy Manager Licenses will be needed?

• A. three licenses, C2000V
• B. six licenses, C2000V
• C. three licenses, C3000V
• D. six licenses, C3000V
