8
A company informs the account manager that the installation of a new
edge router at the customer remote branch location cannot be done at the scheduled time
because of a large order that the branch office needs to complete. As a result, the end date of the
project must be adjusted to accommodate the additional time. What is the action should the
account manager take?

Cancel the order for the new edge router.

Work with designer to redesign the branch network.

Instruct the technician to complete the install of the router at on the date in the contract.

project completion date.


9
NetworkingCompany completes the installation of a network upgrade for
a retail customer. All of the onsite tests complete successfully and the customer IT staff approves
the results of the tests. The manager of the retail store contacts NetworkingCompany to inform
the company that the store will not pay for the upgrade until a recently purchased software
package is installed and tested on the network. Which two items that are contained in the
proposal can the account manager refer to when discussing this issue with the store manager?(Choose two.)

the project scope

the bill-of-material

the project timeline

the terms and conditions

the business goals of the customer

the evaluation of the current network


10
The operation of a new branch location network is delayed because a
VPN cannot be configured and established between the branch location and the main office. It is
determined that the router at the main office does not have enough memory and does not have
the correct Cisco IOS version image to support the VPN features. To prevent this delay, this
problem should have been identified and corrected during which part of the design project?

the preparation of the business case

the prioritizing of the technical goals

the characterization of the existing network

the implementation of the approved design


11
The NetworkingCompany team is tasked to prepare an implementation
schedule for a customer. It is determined that the new firewalls and wireless controllers that are
specified in the design cannot be delivered and installed within the agreed upon time frame. The
NetworkingCompany informs the customer of the problem. What two options can the
NetworkingCompany team take to ensure the success of the project? (Choose two.)

plan to add additional staff and resources to shorten the installation time after the new
equipment is delivered

eliminate redundancy in the design to reduce the amount of equipment that is needed

renegotiate a new time frame with the customer to accommodate the delay

delay the installation of the security devices and controllers until a later time

redesign the network to use only readily available equipment and software


12
AAA Financial Services Company is performing implementation planning
for a core switch upgrade. The company has 200 financial software programmers that work
billable hours during the week. They have critical, scheduled money transfer transmissions that
occur at hourly intervals every night. There are two, two-hour long IT maintenance windows
scheduled for software upgrades, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. The bank advertises
online banking as available 24 hours on business days and 21 hours on the weekends. However,
a network upgrade that is necessary to replace some switches is expected to take four hours.
Because of rack constraints, this time includes three hours to remove the old switches before the
new switches can be installed and one hour to test the logical configuration. How should the
implementation scheduling be handled

Defer the software upgrades. Use the Saturday window to perform the hardware
installation. Use the Sunday window to perform the logical testing.

Coordinate and publish a separate four-hour downtime during Friday to perform the
complete switch installation and testing process. Use the Saturday and Sunday windows to
correct any outage problems after the Friday window.

Coordinate and publish two, four-hour downtimes incorporating the published Saturday
and Sunday windows. Defer any software upgrades until the new network is proven to be working
correctly with the old software. Use the Sunday window as a fallback scheduling period if there
are problems necessitating backing out of the Saturday window.

Coordinate and publish an eight-hour downtime incorporating the Saturday window. This
will allow four hours for installation and logical testing, one hour for troubleshooting and decision,
and three hours to roll back to the previous configuration if the new switching cannot pass the
logical testing. Defer any software upgrades until the new network is proven to be working
correctly with the old software.


13
Included in a Bill of Materials (BOM) for a SOHO wired implementation is

20
Which statement describes a phased installation into an existing network?

A phased installation generally takes less time and expense than a green-field installation.

A phased installation is not suitable for large, multi-site network installations or upgrades.

A phased installation requires detailed planning in order to avoid disruption of user services.
A phased installation involves building an entire replacement network and migrating users
over to it.
