CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 714

What are two behaviors of a point-to-point WAN topology? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. It leverages a dedicated connection.
• B. It provides direct connections betwaen each router in the topology.
• C. It delivers redundancy between the central office and branch offices.
• D. It uses a single router to route traffic between sites.
• E. It connects remote networks through a single line.

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

The correct answers are A and E because a point-to-point WAN topology indeed utilizes a dedicated connection to ensure stable communication and connects remote networks through a single line. Options B and C are incorrect as they describe characteristics of more complex topologies, while D misrepresents the routing method, as point-to-point typically involves direct connections rather than a single routing device.
