Which of the following are required when adding a network to the OSPF routing process configuration? (Choose three)
- A.
Network address
- B.
Loopback address
- C.
Autonomous system number
- D.
Subnet mask
- E.
Wildcard mask
- F.
Area ID
Correct Answer(s)
A. Network address
E. Wildcard mask
F. Area IDExplanation
When adding a network to the OSPF routing process configuration, three things are required: network address, wildcard mask, and area ID. The network address is the IP address of the network being added, the wildcard mask is used to specify which hosts or subnets within the network are included, and the area ID is used to identify the OSPF area that the network belongs to. The loopback address, autonomous system number, and subnet mask are not required for adding a network to the OSPF routing process configuration.Rate this question:

Which of the following are primary functions of a router? (Choose two.)
- A.
Packet switching
- B.
Microsegmentation
- C.
Domain name resolution
- D.
Path selection
- E.
Flow control
Correct Answer(s)
A. Packet switching
D. Path selectionExplanation
Routers are networking devices that operate at the network layer of the OSI model. They primarily perform two functions: packet switching and path selection. Packet switching involves receiving data packets from one network and forwarding them to the appropriate network based on the destination IP address. Path selection refers to the process of determining the best path for data packets to reach their destination, considering factors such as network congestion and link availability. Microsegmentation, domain name resolution, and flow control are not primary functions of a router.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Packets destined to which two networks will require the router to perform a recursive lookup? (Choose two.)
- A.
10.0.0.0/8
- B.
64.100.0.0/16
- C.
128.107.0.0/16

172.16.40.0/24
- E.
192.168.1.0/24
- F.
192.168.2.0/24
Correct Answer(s)
A. 10.0.0.0/8
F. 192.168.2.0/24Explanation
The router will need to perform a recursive lookup for packets destined to the networks 10.0.0.0/8 and 192.168.2.0/24. This means that the router will need to consult its routing table and potentially query other routers to determine the next hop for these packets. The other networks listed in the exhibit do not require a recursive lookup as their routes are directly connected or more specific routes are available.Rate this question:

When would the network administrator use the ip bandwidth-percent eigrp as-number percent command?
- A.
When there is a low bandwidth connection
- B.
When the connection is on a shared medium
- C.
When the connection is serial instead of Ethernet
- D.
When the link is always busy
Correct Answer
A. When there is a low bandwidth connectionExplanation
The network administrator would use the "ip bandwidth-percent eigrp as-number percent" command when there is a low bandwidth connection. This command is used in EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) to specify the percentage of bandwidth that can be used for EIGRP routing updates on a particular interface. By setting a lower percentage, the administrator can ensure that EIGRP does not consume too much of the limited bandwidth available on the low bandwidth connection.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. The hosts on the R1 LAN are unable to access the Internet. What is incorrectly configured?
- A.
The IP address of the Fa0/0 interface at R1
- B.
The IP address of the S0/0/1 interface at R2
- C.
The IP address of the S0/0/0 interface at R1
- D.
The subnet mask of the S0/0/1 interface at R2
Correct Answer
C. The IP address of the S0/0/0 interface at R1Explanation
The incorrect configuration in this scenario is the IP address of the S0/0/0 interface at R1. Since the hosts on the R1 LAN are unable to access the Internet, it suggests that there is an issue with the connectivity between R1 and the Internet. The IP address of the S0/0/0 interface at R1 is responsible for connecting R1 to the Internet. Therefore, if this IP address is incorrectly configured, it would result in a lack of connectivity for the hosts on the R1 LAN.Rate this question:

- C.
192.168.0.0/22
- D.
192.168.1.0/22
Correct Answer
C. 192.168.0.0/22Explanation
R1 should use the summarization 192.168.0.0/22 to advertise its networks to R2. This is because the /22 prefix length includes both the 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.0.0/24 networks, as well as the two networks in between them. By using this summarization, R1 can advertise a single route to R2, reducing the routing table size and improving efficiency.Rate this question:

D. R 192.168.100.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.1.1, 00:00:24, Serial0/0/0Explanation
Two of the routes added to the routing table of R1 are R 192.168.1.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.2.1, 00:00:24, Serial0/0/1 and R 192.168.100.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.1.1, 00:00:24, Serial0/0/0. These routes indicate that R1 has learned about networks 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.100.0/24 through the specified next-hop routers 172.16.2.1 and 172.16.1.1 respectively. The administrative distance (AD) of 120 and metric of 1 indicate that these routes are learned through an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) and have the same level of preference.Rate this question:

A router boots and enters setup mode. What is the reason for this?
- A.
The IOS image is corrupt.
- B.
Cisco IOS is missing from flash memory.
- C.
The configuration file is missing from NVRAM.
- D.
The POST process has detected hardware failure.
Correct Answer
C. The configuration file is missing from NVRAM.Explanation
The reason for the router booting and entering setup mode is that the configuration file is missing from NVRAM. NVRAM (Non-Volatile Random Access Memory) is a type of memory that stores the router's startup configuration. If the configuration file is missing from NVRAM, the router will enter setup mode, allowing the user to manually configure the router. This could happen due to various reasons such as accidental deletion of the configuration file or a failure in saving the configuration to NVRAM.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. A router learns a route to the 192.168.6.0 network, as shown in the output of the show ip rip database command. However, upon running the show ip route command, the network administrator sees that the router has installed a different route to the 192.168.6.0 network learned via EIGRP. What could be the reason for the missing RIP route?
- A.
Compared to RIP, EIGRP has a lower administrative distance.
- B.
Compared to EIGRP, RIP has a higher metric value for the route.
- C.
Compared to RIP, the EIGRP route has fewer hops.
- D.
Compared to RIP, EIGRP has a faster update timer.
Correct Answer
A. Compared to RIP, EIGRP has a lower administrative distance.Explanation
The reason for the missing RIP route could be that EIGRP has a lower administrative distance compared to RIP. Administrative distance is a metric used by routers to determine the trustworthiness of a routing protocol. When multiple routing protocols learn the same route, the router will choose the one with the lowest administrative distance. In this case, EIGRP has a lower administrative distance than RIP, so the router prefers the EIGRP route over the RIP route.Rate this question:

All routers in a network are configured in a single OSPF area with the same priority value. No loopback interface has been set on any of the routers. Which secondary value will the routers use to determine the router ID?
- A.
The highest MAC address among the active interfaces of the network will be used.
- B.
There will be no router ID until a loopback interface is configured.
- C.
The highest IP address among the active FastEthernet interfaces that are running OSPF will be used.
- D.
The highest IP address among the active interfaces will be used.
Correct Answer
D. The highest IP address among the active interfaces will be used.Explanation
In OSPF, each router is assigned a unique Router ID (RID) to identify itself within the network. The RID is used for various purposes, including neighbor adjacency formation and OSPF database synchronization. In the given scenario, where all routers have the same priority value and no loopback interface is set, the routers will determine their RID based on the highest IP address among their active interfaces. This means that the router with the highest IP address among its active interfaces will be selected as the RID for that router.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Routers R1 and R2 are directly connected via their serial interfaces and are both running the EIGRP routing protocol. R1 and R2 can ping the directly connected serial interface of their neighbor, but they cannot form an EIGRP neighbor adjacency. What action should be taken to solve this problem?
- A.
Enable the serial interfaces of both routers.
- B.
Configure EIGRP to send periodic updates.
- C.
Configure the same hello interval between the routers.
- D.
Configure both routers with the same EIGRP process ID.
Correct Answer
D. Configure both routers with the same EIGRP process ID.Explanation
To solve the problem of R1 and R2 being unable to form an EIGRP neighbor adjacency, both routers should be configured with the same EIGRP process ID. The EIGRP process ID is used to identify the EIGRP routing process and allows routers to form neighbor relationships. By configuring both routers with the same process ID, they will be able to recognize each other as neighbors and form the EIGRP adjacency. This will enable the exchange of routing information between the routers and resolve the issue.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. The interfaces of all routers are configured for OSPF area 0. R3 can ping R1, but the two routers are unable to establish a neighbor adjacency. What should the network administrator do to troubleshoot this problem?
- A.
Check if the interfaces of the routers are enabled.
- B.
Check the hello and dead intervals between the routers.
- C.
Check the process ID of both routers.
- D.
Check if CDP is enabled on all the routers.
Correct Answer
B. Check the hello and dead intervals between the routers.Explanation
To troubleshoot the issue of R3 and R1 not being able to establish a neighbor adjacency, the network administrator should check the hello and dead intervals between the routers. OSPF routers use hello packets to discover and form neighbor adjacencies. If the hello or dead intervals are misconfigured, it can prevent the routers from establishing a neighbor adjacency. By checking and correcting the hello and dead intervals, the network administrator can resolve the problem and allow R3 and R1 to establish a neighbor adjacency.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. The hosts that are connected to R2 are unable to ping the hosts that are connected to R1. How can this problem be resolved?
- A.
Configure the router ID on both routers.
- B.
Configure the R2 router interfaces for area 0.
- C.
Configure a loopback interface on both routers.
- D.
Configure the proper subnet masks on the router interfaces.
Correct Answer
B. Configure the R2 router interfaces for area 0.Explanation
The problem can be resolved by configuring the R2 router interfaces for area 0. This is because in a OSPF network, routers in the same area must have the same area ID in order to establish adjacency and exchange routing information. By configuring the R2 router interfaces for area 0, it ensures that R2 is in the same area as R1, allowing them to communicate with each other and resolve the ping issue.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. The command ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 S0/0/0 is run on router R2. What are the two results of this command? (Choose two.)
- A.
A static route will be updated in the routing table.
- B.
The traffic from the Internet will be directed to R2.
- C.
The traffic from the source network 172.16.0.0/22 will be blocked.
- D.
The route will be specified as the default route for all networks not defined in the routing table.
- E.
All the broadcasts will be forwarded via the S0/0/0 interface of R2.
Correct Answer(s)
A. A static route will be updated in the routing table.
D. The route will be specified as the default route for all networks not defined in the routing table.Explanation
The command "ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 S0/0/0" is used to configure a static default route on router R2. This means that any traffic that does not have a specific route in the routing table will be directed to the S0/0/0 interface of R2. This command does not block any traffic from the source network 172.16.0.0/22, but rather provides a default route for all networks not defined in the routing table. Therefore, the two results of this command are that a static route will be updated in the routing table and the route will be specified as the default route for all networks not defined in the routing table.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. All routers are properly configured with default configurations and are running the OSPF routing protocol. The network is fully converged. A host on the 192.168.3.0/24 network is communicating with a host on the 192.168.2.0/24 network.Which path will be used to transmit the data?
- A.
The data will be transmitted via R3-R2.
- B.
The data will be transmitted via R3-R1-R2.
- C.
The traffic will be load-balanced between two paths — one via R3-R2, and the other via R3-R1-R2.
- D.
The data will be transmitted via R3-R2, and the other path via R3-R1-R2 will be retained as the backup path.
Correct Answer
B. The data will be transmitted via R3-R1-R2.Explanation
The correct answer is that the data will be transmitted via R3-R1-R2. This is because in OSPF, the path with the lowest cost (or metric) is chosen as the best path. In this case, R3-R1-R2 has a lower cost than R3-R2, so it will be used to transmit the data.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. What is the meaning of the highlighted value 120?
- A.
It is the metric that is calculated by the routing protocol.
- B.
It is the value that is used by the DUAL algorithm to determine the bandwidth for the link.
- C.
It is the administrative distance of the routing protocol.
- D.
It is the hold-down time, measured in seconds, before the next update.
Correct Answer
C. It is the administrative distance of the routing protocol.Explanation
The highlighted value of 120 represents the administrative distance of the routing protocol. Administrative distance is used by routers to determine the reliability or trustworthiness of a particular routing protocol. It is a numerical value assigned to each routing protocol, with lower values indicating higher priority. In this case, a value of 120 suggests that the routing protocol associated with this metric is considered less reliable or less trustworthy compared to other routing protocols with lower administrative distances.Rate this question:

R 192.168.1.0/24 [120/4] via 192.168.101.1, 00:00:17, Serial0/1/1
Correct Answer
C. R 192.168.1.0/24 [120/1] via 192.168.100.1, 00:00:17, Serial0/0/1Explanation
The route with the lowest administrative distance will be installed in the routing table. In this case, all the routes have the same administrative distance of 120. Therefore, the route with the lowest metric will be installed. The metric is represented by the number after the administrative distance in brackets. The route with the lowest metric is R 192.168.1.0/24 [120/1] via 192.168.100.1.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. PC1 is unable to access the Internet. What is the cause of the problem?
- A.
An incorrect IP address is configured between the two routers.
- B.
No static route is configured on Router2.
- C.
A routing loop has occurred.
- D.
No routing protocol is configured on either of the two routers.
Correct Answer
C. A routing loop has occurred.Explanation
A routing loop occurs when packets are continuously forwarded between routers in a network, unable to reach their destination. This can happen due to incorrect routing configurations, such as incorrect routing table entries or misconfigured routing protocols. In this case, PC1 is unable to access the Internet, indicating a problem with the routing. Since the correct answer is "A routing loop has occurred," it suggests that the routers are stuck in a loop, causing the network traffic to circulate indefinitely without reaching its intended destination.Rate this question:

How does route poisoning prevent routing loops?
- A.
New routing updates are ignored until the network has converged.
- B.
Failed routes are advertised with a metric of infinity.
- C.
A route is marked as unavailable when its Time to Live is exceeded.
- D.
The unreachable route is cleared from the routing table after the invalid timer expires.
Correct Answer
B. Failed routes are advertised with a metric of infinity.Explanation
Route poisoning prevents routing loops by advertising failed routes with a metric of infinity. This means that when a route fails, it is marked as unreachable and assigned a metric value that is considered infinitely high. By doing so, routers in the network will know that the route is not available and will not attempt to use it, thereby preventing routing loops from occurring.Rate this question:

Which statement is true about the metrics used by routing protocols?
- A.
A metric is a value used by a particular routing protocol to compare paths to remote networks.
- B.
A common metric is used by all routing protocols.
- C.
The metric with the highest value is installed in the routing table.
- D.
The router may use only one parameter at a time to calculate the metric.
Correct Answer
A. A metric is a value used by a particular routing protocol to compare paths to remote networks.Explanation
Routing protocols use metrics to compare different paths to remote networks. A metric is a value assigned by a routing protocol to each path, indicating its desirability or cost. By comparing metrics, a router can determine the best path to a destination network. Each routing protocol may use its own specific metric calculation, such as hop count, bandwidth, delay, or load. Therefore, the statement that "a metric is a value used by a particular routing protocol to compare paths to remote networks" is true.Rate this question:

Which statement correctly describes a feature of RIP?
- A.
RIP is a link-state routing protocol.
- B.
RIP uses only one metric—hop count— for path selection.
- C.
Advertised routes with hop counts greater than 10 are unreachable.
- D.
Messages are broadcast every 10 seconds.
Correct Answer
B. RIP uses only one metric—hop count— for path selection.Explanation
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a distance vector routing protocol that uses the hop count as its only metric for path selection. Hop count refers to the number of routers a packet must pass through to reach its destination. RIP calculates the shortest path based on the number of hops, making it a simple and easy-to-implement routing protocol. Other routing protocols may consider additional metrics such as bandwidth or delay, but RIP solely relies on hop count.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. OSPF is used for the routing protocol and all interfaces are configured with the correct IP addresses and subnet masks. During testing, it is found that router R1 is unable to form an adjacency with R2. What is the cause of this problem?
- A.
Both routers have been configured with incorrect router IDs.
- B.
Both routers have been configured in different OSPF areas.
- C.
Both routers have been configured with an incorrect network type.
- D.
Both routers have been configured with different hello and dead intervals.
Correct Answer
D. Both routers have been configured with different hello and dead intervals.Explanation
The hello and dead intervals determine how often OSPF routers send hello packets to each other to establish and maintain neighbor adjacencies. If the hello and dead intervals are not configured the same on both routers, they will not be able to form an adjacency. This is likely the cause of the problem in this scenario.Rate this question:

A network administrator is in charge of two separate networks that share a single building. What device will be required to connect the two networks and add a common connection to the Internet that can be shared?
- A.
Hub
- B.
Router
- C.

Correct Answer
B. RouterExplanation
A router is the correct answer because it is a networking device that connects multiple networks together and allows them to communicate with each other. In this scenario, the network administrator needs to connect the two separate networks in the building and also provide them with a common connection to the internet. A router can accomplish both of these tasks by routing data packets between the networks and also connecting them to the internet through its WAN (Wide Area Network) port.Rate this question:

- C.
192.168.0.0/24
- D.
192.168.128.32/27
Correct Answer
B. 172.16.0.0/12Explanation
The network and mask combination 172.16.0.0/12 requires the use of a classless addressing solution because the given subnet mask (/12) does not align with the default classful boundaries. In classful addressing, the default subnet mask for a Class B network is /16, but in this case, the subnet mask is /12, indicating that the network is being divided into smaller subnets. This is an example of classless addressing, where the network boundaries are not restricted to the default classful boundaries.Rate this question:

A company is using static routes that are configured with an administrative distance of “1” on all routers in the network. The network administrator decides to introduce a dynamic routing protocol to reduce the manual configurations for the static routes. Which option identifies the correct procedure for the dynamic routing to take place in the network?
- A.
The static routes and the dynamic routes will have the traffic alternate between them.
- B.
The static routes will be automatically removed once the dynamic routing is configured.
- C.
The static routes will be automatically updated with the next hop IP address once the dynamic routing is configured.
- D.
The static routes must be manually removed from all routers in order for the dynamic routes to be installed in the routing table.
Correct Answer
D. The static routes must be manually removed from all routers in order for the dynamic routes to be installed in the routing table.Explanation
When a dynamic routing protocol is introduced, the static routes need to be manually removed from all routers in order for the dynamic routes to be installed in the routing table. This is because static routes have a lower administrative distance (AD) of "1" compared to the dynamic routes. The AD determines the trustworthiness of a route, and a lower AD means a higher priority. So, as long as the static routes exist, the routers will prefer them over the dynamic routes. Hence, the static routes must be removed manually to allow the dynamic routes to take effect and be installed in the routing table.Rate this question:

Which candidate route has the longest match for a packet with a destination address of 10.30.16.48?
- A.
10.30.0.0/16
- B.
10.30.15.0/23
- C.
10.30.16.0/24
- D.
10.30.16.32/27
- E.
10.30.16.32/30
Correct Answer
D. 10.30.16.32/27Explanation
The candidate route with the longest match for a packet with a destination address of 10.30.16.48 is 10.30.16.32/27. This is because the subnet mask of /27 allows for a larger range of IP addresses to be matched compared to the other candidate routes. The subnet mask of /27 means that the first 27 bits of the IP address must match, which includes the 10.30.16.32 portion. Therefore, this route has the longest match and is the correct answer.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. The network is configured with RIPv2. However, network administrators notice that communication cannot be successfully completed from one LAN to another. A network administrator issues the show ip route command on the HQ router. Based on the output, what should be done to correct the problem?
- A.
Disable the load balancing feature of RIPv2.
- B.
Issue the no auto-summary command for RIPv2.
- C.
Replace RIPv2 with EIGRP which supports VLSM.
- D.
Make sure that the network statements include the correct subnet mask.
Correct Answer
B. Issue the no auto-summary command for RIPv2.Explanation
Based on the output of the "show ip route" command, it can be observed that the network statements in the RIPv2 configuration are summarizing the routes. This can cause communication issues between LANs as the specific subnets are not being advertised. To correct this problem, the network administrator should issue the "no auto-summary" command for RIPv2. This command will disable the automatic summarization of routes and ensure that the correct subnet information is included in the routing updates.Rate this question:

Which multicast address does EIGRP use to send hello and updates packets?
- A.
224.0.0.5
- B.
224.0.0.6
- C.
224.0.0.9
- D.
224.0.0.10
Correct Answer
D. 224.0.0.10Explanation
EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) uses multicast address 224.0.0.10 to send hello and update packets. Multicast addresses are used to send packets to a group of devices instead of sending them individually. In this case, EIGRP routers use the multicast address 224.0.0.10 to send hello and update packets to all other EIGRP routers in the network. This allows for efficient communication and exchange of routing information between EIGRP routers.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Why is the state of the serial0/0/0 interface administratively down?
- A.
An IP address has not been configured on the interface.
- B.
The WIC was installed into the incorrect slot on the router.
- C.
The default encapsulation on the interface has been modified.
- D.
The no shutdown command has not been executed on the interface.
Correct Answer
D. The no shutdown command has not been executed on the interface.Explanation
The state of the serial0/0/0 interface is administratively down because the "no shutdown" command has not been executed on the interface. This command is used to enable the interface and bring it up. Without executing this command, the interface remains administratively down and cannot transmit or receive data.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. How was the OSPF default gateway entry for R2 determined?
- A.
Default routes are automatically injected by OSPF into all advertisements.
- B.
A static default gateway route is defined in the configuration of R2.
- C.
The default-information originate command is applied on R1.
- D.
The ISP defines the gateway of last resort and automatically passes it to R1 and R2.
- E.
The ip default-gateway command is applied on R2.
Correct Answer
C. The default-information originate command is applied on R1.Explanation
The OSPF default gateway entry for R2 was determined by applying the default-information originate command on R1. This command allows R1 to inject a default route into the OSPF routing domain, which is then propagated to R2. This means that R2 will use this default route as its gateway for any destinations not found in its routing table.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. RIPv1 has been properly configured on all routers in the network. However, users on LAN2 have intermittent connectivity with the users on LAN1 and LAN3. What is the cause of the problem?
- A.
Both LAN networks are separated from router R2 with a variably subnetted Class C network 209.165.200.0/30.
- B.
Neither router R1 nor router R3 has a static route configured that points to the variably subnetted 172.16.0.0/24 networks.
- C.
Both routers R1 and R3 are sending the summarized 172.16.0.0/16 network to R2 in their RIPv1 routing updates.
- D.
Both networks 172.16.1.0/24 and 172.16.100.0/24 are configured with a subnet mask different from the default classful mask.
Correct Answer
C. Both routers R1 and R3 are sending the summarized 172.16.0.0/16 network to R2 in their RIPv1 routing updates.Explanation
The cause of the problem is that both routers R1 and R3 are sending the summarized 172.16.0.0/16 network to R2 in their RIPv1 routing updates. This means that R2 is receiving two different routing updates for the same network, leading to confusion and intermittent connectivity issues for the users on LAN2. To resolve the problem, either R1 or R3 should be reconfigured to send more specific routes for the individual LAN networks instead of summarizing them into a single network.Rate this question:

Which default EIGRP configuration must be modified to allow an EIGRP router to advertise subnets that are configured with VLSM?
- A.
Split horizon
- B.
Metric K values
- C.
Autosummarization
- D.
Hello and dead intervals
Correct Answer
C. AutosummarizationExplanation
Autosummarization is the default EIGRP configuration that needs to be modified in order to allow an EIGRP router to advertise subnets that are configured with VLSM. Autosummarization is a feature that automatically summarizes routes at network boundaries, which can cause issues when using VLSM because it can result in incorrect routing information being advertised. By disabling autosummarization, the EIGRP router will be able to advertise the specific subnets configured with VLSM accurately.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Which route will be removed from the routing table if manual EIGRP summarization is disabled on the Serial0/0/0 interface of Router3?
- A.
0.0.0.0/0
- B.
172.16.0.0/16
- C.
172.16.1.0/24
- D.
172.16.3.0/30
Correct Answer
B. 172.16.0.0/16Explanation
If manual EIGRP summarization is disabled on the Serial0/0/0 interface of Router3, the route 172.16.0.0/16 will be removed from the routing table. This is because manual summarization combines multiple routes into a single summary route, and when it is disabled, the individual routes within the summary will be advertised instead. Therefore, the specific route 172.16.0.0/16 will no longer be necessary in the routing table.Rate this question:

Which two link-state routing protocol challenges does OSPF resolve through the election of a DR? (Choose two.)
- A.
The extensive flooding of LSAs throughout the OSPF area
- B.
The excessive adjacencies when the number of routers increases
- C.
The requirement for link-state database updates to be propagated between OSPF areas
- D.
The heavy CPU load that is imposed because each router must compute shortest paths by using the SPF algorithm
- E.
The requirement for each router to build a topological database of the internetwork to determine the shortest paths between networks
Correct Answer(s)
A. The extensive flooding of LSAs throughout the OSPF area
B. The excessive adjacencies when the number of routers increasesExplanation
OSPF resolves the challenge of the extensive flooding of LSAs throughout the OSPF area by electing a designated router (DR). The DR is responsible for receiving LSAs from other routers and flooding them to the rest of the OSPF area, reducing the amount of flooding required by each individual router. Additionally, OSPF resolves the challenge of excessive adjacencies when the number of routers increases by electing a backup designated router (BDR). The BDR takes over the responsibilities of the DR if it fails, reducing the number of adjacencies that each router needs to maintain.Rate this question:

A routing table shows an EIGRP route to 192.168.1.0/24 with a metric of 301440. What other term also describes this EIGRP metric value?
- A.
Feasible distance
- B.
Reported distance
- C.
Feasible successor
- D.
Feasibility condition
Correct Answer
A. Feasible distanceExplanation
The term that also describes the EIGRP metric value of 301440 is "feasible distance". In EIGRP, the feasible distance represents the total metric or cost to reach a specific network, and it is calculated based on various factors such as bandwidth, delay, reliability, and load. The feasible distance is used to determine the best path to a network in EIGRP routing. Therefore, in this scenario, the EIGRP metric value of 301440 represents the feasible distance to reach the 192.168.1.0/24 network.Rate this question:

- A.
Traffic for network 192.168.2.0 is forwarded to 172.16.1.2.
- B.
This route is automatically propagated throughout the entire network.
- C.
Traffic for all networks is forwarded to 172.16.1.2.
- D.
The command invokes a dynamic routing protocol for 192.168.2.0.
Correct Answer
A. Traffic for network 192.168.2.0 is forwarded to 172.16.1.2.Explanation
The command "ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.1.2" configures a static route on R1. This means that any traffic destined for the network 192.168.2.0 will be forwarded to the next hop IP address 172.16.1.2. This allows R1 to know how to reach the 192.168.2.0 network and send traffic towards it.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. What will happen if interface Serial0/0/1 goes down on Router1?
- A.
The Dijkstra algorithm will calculate the feasible successor.
- B.
DUAL will query neighbors for a route to network 192.168.1.0.
- C.
Neighbor 172.16.3.2 will be promoted to the feasible successor.
- D.
Traffic destined to the 192.168.1.0 network will be dropped immediately due to lack of a feasible successor.
Correct Answer
B. DUAL will query neighbors for a route to network 192.168.1.0.Explanation
If interface Serial0/0/1 goes down on Router1, DUAL (Diffusing Update Algorithm) will query its neighbors for an alternative route to the network 192.168.1.0. This is because DUAL is the algorithm used by Cisco routers to calculate the best path to a destination network. When a link failure occurs, DUAL will search for a feasible successor, which is a backup route that meets certain criteria. In this case, DUAL will query the neighbors to find a new path to the network 192.168.1.0.Rate this question:

- A.
With static routes
- B.
With a routed protocol
- C.
With a routing protocol
- D.
With directly connected routes
Correct Answer
C. With a routing protocolExplanation
The correct answer is "with a routing protocol". A routing protocol is needed for router R1 to dynamically learn routes to the specified subnetworks. Static routes require manual configuration and do not dynamically update, while a routed protocol is used for data transmission, not for route learning. Directly connected routes only apply to networks directly connected to the router. Therefore, the most appropriate option is to use a routing protocol for dynamic route learning.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. What will happen when the router reloads?
- A.
It will boot into ROMMON mode.
- B.
It will ignore the start-up configuration file.
- C.
It will look for the start-up configuration file on the TFTP server.
- D.
It will attempt to load the start-up configuration file that is stored in NVRAM.
Correct Answer
D. It will attempt to load the start-up configuration file that is stored in NVRAM.Explanation
When the router reloads, it will attempt to load the start-up configuration file that is stored in NVRAM. This is because the start-up configuration file contains the configuration settings that were saved to NVRAM. By loading this file, the router can restore its previous configuration and continue operating as before the reload.Rate this question:
