Free Practice Questions for Cisco 300-720 Exam

The safelist is a list of email addresses or domains that are considered legitimate and trustworthy by Cisco ESA. When an email is received from a sender on the safelist, Cisco ESA skips antispam scanning for that message and delivers it to the recipient without any spam filtering.

Serial connection is a method that should be used to determine the configuration issue when there is a loss of connectivity to the neighboring switch. Serial connection allows the engineer to access the Cisco ESA console port using a serial cable and a terminal emulator, such as PuTTY or HyperTerminal, without relying on the network connectivity.

The other options are not valid methods to determine the configuration issue when there is a loss of connectivity to the neighboring switch, because they require network connectivity to work.

When DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) signing is configured on Cisco ESA, the DNS record that must be updated to load the DKIM public signing key is the TXT record. The TXT record is used to store arbitrary text information in the DNS, such as the DKIM public key, which can be retrieved by the recipients to verify the DKIM signature in the message header.

The maximum message size that can be configured for encryption on the Cisco ESA is 25 MB. This is the default value for the Maximum Message Size for Encryption setting in the Encryption Profile. Messages that exceed this size will not be encrypted and will be delivered as normal.

When CRES (Cisco Registered Envelope Service) is unavailable, Cisco ESA will requeue the message and attempt to resend it later, until the maximum number of retries or the maximum age of the message is reached. The message will not be sent in clear text, dropped, or encrypted by another appliance.

Accept is the action that must be set for messages that result in temporary failure to prevent these emails from being rejected. Accept allows Cisco ESA to deliver the messages without applying any DMARC actions or modifications.

To configure the accept action for messages that result in temporary failure on Cisco ESA, the administrator can follow these steps:

Select Mail Policies > DMARC Verification Profile and click Edit Settings for the DMARC verification profile that applies to the messages.

Under DMARC Actions, select Accept from the drop-down menu for Messages That Result in Temporary Failure.

Click Submit.

The other options are not valid actions for messages that result in temporary failure to prevent these emails from being rejected, because they either apply DMARC actions or modifications or do nothing.
