1.

Refer to the exhibit. Which statement correctly describes the path traffic would take from the 10.0.0.0/24 network to the 192.168.1.0/24 network if a link-state routing protocol was in use?

BOS -> ATL because this path is the least hops

BOS -> ATL because this path is highest cost

BOS -> ORL -> JAX -> ATL because this path is the lowest cost

Traffic would load balance across all links

2.

Submit

5. When are link-state packets sent to neighbors?

6. Which algorithm is run by link-state routing protocols to calculate the shortest path to destination networks?

Moores Law

7. A new network administrator is given the task of selecting an appropriate dynamic routing protocol for a software development company. The company has over 100 routers, uses CIDR and VLSM, requires fast convergence, and uses both Cisco and non-Cisco equipment. Which routing protocol is appropriate for this company?

RIP version 2

IGRP

EIGRP

OSPF

BGP

8. Why is it difficult for routing loops to occur in networks that use link-state routing?

Each router builds a simple view of the network based on hop count.

Routers flood the network with LSAs to discover routing loops.

Each router builds a complete and synchronized view of the network.

Routers use hold-down timers to prevent routing loops.

9. What two events will cause a link state router to send LSPs to all neighbors? (Choose two.)

30 second timer expires

Whenever the network topology changes

Immediately after the Bellman-Ford algorithm has run

Immediately after the DUAL FSM has built the topology database

Upon initial startup of router or routing protocol

Submit

10.

Refer to the exhibit. What does JAX do with link-state packets from ORL?

Sends out its updated routing table to both ORL and BOS routers

Sends out the individual link-state packets out the interface connected to BOS

Queries BOS to see if it has a better route

Only adds it to the local routing table and performs no other actions

11.

Refer to the exhibit. When Router D is configured to use a link-state routing protocol and is added to the network, what is the first thing that it does to begin learning the network topology?

It sends LSP packets to Routers B and C.

It sends LSP packets to all routers in the network.

It sends information about its directly connected neighbors to Routers A and E.

It sends information about its directly connected neighbors to all routers in the network.

It learns about its directly connected networks when its interfaces reach the up state.

12. What feature do modern link-state protocols provide to minimize processing and memory requirements?

Splitting routing topologies into smaller areas

Assigning lower process priorities to route calculations

Using update timers to restrict routing updates

Strict split horizon rules to reduce routing table entries

13. What speeds up convergence in a network using link-state routing?

Updates triggered by network changes

Updates sent at regular intervals

Updates sent only to directly connected neighbors

Updates that include complete routing tables

14. Which database or table must be identical on all link-state routers within an area in order to construct an accurate SPF tree?

Routing table

Adjacency table

Link-state database

Neighbor table

Topology database

15. What is the final step in the link state routing process?

Successors are placed into the routing table

SPF computes best path to each destination network

LSPs are flooded to all neighbors to converge the network

DUAL algorithm is run to find best path to destination networks

16. What action does a link-state router take immediately upon receipt of an LSP from a neighboring router?

Floods the LSP to neighbors

Calculates the SPF algorithm

Runs the Bellman-Ford algorithm

Computes the best path to the destination network

17. What two statements correctly describe the link state routing process? (Choose two.)

Each router in the area floods LSPs to all neighbors

All routers in the area have identical link state databases

LSPs use the reserved multicast address of 224.0.0.10 to reach neighbors

Routing loops are prevented by running the Diffusing Update Algorithm (DUAL)

Reliable Transport Protocol (RTP) is the protocol used by for the delivery and reception of LSPs

Submit

18. What are some of the advantages of using a link-state routing protocol instead of a distance vector routing protocol? (Choose two.)

The topology database eliminates the need for a routing table.

Frequent periodic updates are sent to minimize the number of incorrect routes in the topological database.

Routers have direct knowledge of all links in the network and how they are connected.

After the inital LSA flooding, they generally require less bandwidth to communicate changes in a topology.

Link-state protocols require less router processor power than distance vector protocols.

Submit

19. To achieve network convergence, what three steps does each link state router take? (Choose three.)

Use automatic summarization to reduce the size of routing tables

Build a Link State Packet (LSP) containing the state of each directly connected link

Flood the LSP to all neighbors, who then store all LSPs received in a database

Discover neighbors and establish adjacencies using the hello packet sent at regular intervals

Construct a complete map of the topology and compute the best path to each destination network
