Answers:

1. "A, D". If the DCE is not supplying clockrate and/or the LMI is not being received correctly in a Frame Relay configuration, the line protocol will go down.

 

2. "C". The running config is found in RAM.

 

3. "D". A Cisco router will first look for its IOS image in Flash.

 

4. Only the contents of RAM are lost on a reload.

 

5. "A". The Power-On Self-Test programs are in ROM.

 

6. We care because the POSTs run important tests to determine if there's a critical error in the router before the boot process goes into full swing - and if there is, you get a nasty little message on the screen that the POST has failed and the router shuts down.

 

7. "C". The startup config file is kept in Non-Volatile RAM. The "non-volatile" refers to the non-loss of its contents on a reload.
