Developing Applications and Automating Workflows Using Cisco Platforms (DEVASC) — Question 139

What are two benefits of using VLANs? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. limits the devices that can join the network
• B. enables the logical grouping of devices that belong to different Layer 2 devices
• C. segments the broadcast domain
• D. allows all network devices to be accessible from any host on the network
• E. extends the broadcast domain

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because VLANs allow for the logical grouping of devices that can be on different Layer 2 networks and effectively segment the broadcast domain, reducing unnecessary traffic. Options A and D are incorrect as VLANs do not limit device access in a restrictive manner and do not allow all devices to be accessible from any host. Option E is also incorrect since VLANs actually reduce the broadcast domain rather than extend it.
