Welcome to the Saturday, October 11 edition of The Mastermind!
I've actually heard from students who have already passed the CCNA Security exam just by using my Preview Edition, which you download just minutes after you lock in the lowest price you'll ever see on any of my Study Packages!
I do recommend you wait for the full release before taking the exam - but don't wait for a lower price, because there isn't going to be one!

Even if you're not working on a home lab right now, I strongly recommend these videos for all CCENT and CCNA candidates, as these videos also review some important Frame Relay concepts:
CCNA / CCNP Home Lab Video: Frame Relay Switch Theory
The second video shows you how to configure a Frame Relay switch, along with verification and troubleshooting procedures:
CCNA / CCNP Home Lab Video: Frame Relay Switch Configuration
I'm often asked whether I recommend the one-exam or two-exam path to the CCNA. Here's a video to help you decide:
The Path(s) To CCNA And CCENT Success
And if you'd like to take a video tour of my CCNA / CCENT Study Package, I have that ready for you as well!

Identify the true statements.
A. The address table on a Cisco 2950 switch is built by reading source IP addresses.
B. Crossover cables are typically used to connect switches to allow trunks to form.
C. Frame map statements map a remote IP address to a remote DLCI.
D. Reverse ARP dynamically creates IP address-DLCI mappings.
Answers: B. A is false because switches build MAC address tables by reading source MAC addresses, not IP addresses. Frame map statements map local DLCIs to remote IP addresses. It's Inverse ARP that performs that mapping dynamically, not Reverse ARP.

A port configured as untrusted by DHCP Snooping receives a DHCP Offer packet. What, if anything, will happen to the port as a result?
