A Network Engineer was asked 4mo ago
Q. What is a HSRP, and how does it work?
Ans. 

HSRP stands for Hot Standby Router Protocol, used for providing high availability in a network by allowing two or more routers to work together in a group.

  • HSRP is a Cisco proprietary protocol used for redundancy in a network.

  • It allows multiple routers to work together in a group, with one router being the active router and the others as standby routers.

  • If the active router fails, one of the standby routers takes o...

Q. What is a VLAN, and how does it function?
Ans. 

A VLAN is a virtual LAN that allows for the segmentation of network traffic to improve performance, security, and manageability.

  • VLANs divide a physical network into multiple logical networks, each with its own broadcast domain.

  • Devices within the same VLAN can communicate with each other as if they were connected to the same physical network.

  • VLANs can be configured to isolate sensitive data or specific types of tra...

A Network Engineer was asked
Q. How does BGP work?
Ans. 

BGP is a routing protocol used to exchange routing information between different autonomous systems.

  • BGP uses TCP as its transport protocol.

  • It operates on a hop-by-hop basis, meaning that it only exchanges routing information with its directly connected neighbors.

  • BGP uses path attributes to determine the best path for a given destination.

  • BGP can be used for both IPv4 and IPv6 routing.

  • BGP is commonly used by Interne...

A Network Engineer was asked
Q. How does OSPF work?
Ans. 

OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that uses Dijkstra's algorithm to calculate the shortest path to a destination network.

  • OSPF routers exchange link-state advertisements (LSAs) to build a complete topology of the network.

  • Each router calculates the shortest path to every network using Dijkstra's algorithm.

  • OSPF uses cost as its metric, which is based on the bandwidth of the link.

  • OSPF supports multiple areas, whic...

A Network Engineer was asked
Q. How do you determine the reliability of a link on Cisco routers?
Ans. 

To find the reliability of a link on Cisco routers, use the show interface command.

  • Log in to the Cisco router using the console or Telnet/SSH.

  • Enter the command 'show interface' to display the status of all interfaces on the router.

  • Look for the 'input errors' and 'output errors' fields to determine the reliability of the link.

  • If there are a high number of errors, the link may be unreliable and require troubleshooti...

A Network Engineer was asked
Q. How do you identify a leased line modem fault?
Ans. 

Identifying leased line modem fault

  • Check if the modem is powered on and all cables are properly connected

  • Check the modem's status lights for any abnormalities

  • Perform loopback tests to check for connectivity issues

  • Check the modem's configuration settings

  • Replace the modem if all other troubleshooting steps fail

A Network Engineer was asked
Q. How do you check a copper twisted pair cable?
Ans. 

Copper twisted pair can be checked using a cable tester to ensure proper connectivity and identify any faults.

  • Use a cable tester to check for continuity and proper wiring

  • Check for any faults such as shorts, opens, or miswires

  • Verify that the cable meets the required specifications for the network

  • Perform a loopback test to ensure that data can be transmitted and received properly

Interview Tips & Stories
1w (edited)
a team lead
Why are women still asked such personal questions in interview?
I recently went for an interview… and honestly, m still trying to process what just happened. Instead of being asked about my skills, experience, or how I could add value to the company… the questions took a totally unexpected turn. The interviewer started asking things like When are you getting married? Are you engaged? And m sure, if I had said I was married, the next question would’ve been How long have you been married? What does my personal life have to do with the job m applying for? This is where I felt the gender discrimination hit hard. These types of questions are so casually thrown at women during interviews but are they ever asked to men? No one asks male candidates if they’re planning a wedding or how old their kids are. So why is it okay to ask women? Can we please stop normalising this kind of behaviour in interviews? Our careers shouldn’t be judged by our relationship status. Period.
