What are two functions of a router? (Choose two.)
- A.
It connects multiple IP networks.
- B.
It controls the flow of data via the use of Layer 2 addresses.
- C.
It determines the best path to send packets.
- D.
It manages the VLAN database.
- E.
It increases the size of the broadcast domain
Correct Answer(s)
A. It connects multiple IP networks.
C. It determines the best path to send packets.Explanation
A router is a networking device that connects multiple IP networks, allowing them to communicate with each other. It does this by forwarding packets between networks based on the destination IP address. This function enables different devices on different networks to exchange data. Additionally, routers determine the best path for packets to travel from the source to the destination network. By analyzing network conditions and using routing protocols, routers ensure efficient and reliable data transmission by choosing the optimal path for each packet.Rate this question:

2. When a router boots, what is the default order to locate the Cisco IOS if there is no boot system command?
- A.
ROM, TFTP server, flash
- B.
Flash, TFTP server, ROM
- C.
Flash, NVRAM, TFTP server
- D.
NVRAM, TFTP server, flash
Correct Answer
B. Flash, TFTP server, ROMExplanation
When a router boots, it first checks the flash memory for the Cisco IOS. If it is not found in the flash memory, the router then attempts to locate the IOS image from a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server. If the IOS image is still not found, the router will finally look for it in the ROM (Read-Only Memory). Therefore, the default order to locate the Cisco IOS if there is no boot system command is flash, TFTP server, ROM.Rate this question:

3. Which router component is used to store the routing table?
- A.
Flash
- B.
NVRAM
- C.
ROM
- D.
SDRAM
Correct Answer
D. SDRAMExplanation
SDRAM stands for Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory. It is a type of computer memory that is used to store data and instructions temporarily while the router is operating. In the case of storing the routing table, SDRAM is used to hold the information about the available routes and their associated metrics. This allows the router to make informed decisions about how to forward packets based on the routing table stored in SDRAM.Rate this question:

5. Refer to the exhibit. Which statement is true concerning the routing configuration?
- A.
Using dynamic routing instead of static routing would have required fewer configuration steps.
- B.
The 10.1.1.0/24 and 10.1.2.0/24 routes have adjacent boundaries and should be summarized.
- C.
Packets routed to the R2 Fast Ethernet interface require two routing table lookups.
- D.
The static route will not work correctly
Correct Answer
C. Packets routed to the R2 Fast Ethernet interface require two routing table lookups.Explanation
The correct answer is "Packets routed to the R2 Fast Ethernet interface require two routing table lookups." This means that when packets are sent to the R2 Fast Ethernet interface, the router needs to perform two lookups in the routing table to determine the appropriate path for forwarding the packets. This could potentially slow down the routing process compared to other options, such as using dynamic routing protocols, which may require fewer steps and provide more efficient routing.Rate this question:

6. Refer to the exhibit. The network administrator issues the command no ip classless on Router1. What forwarding action will take place on a packet that is received by Router1 and is destined for host 192.168.0.26?
- A.
The packet will be dropped.
- B.
The packet will be forwarded to the gateway of last resort.
- C.
The packet will match the 192.168.0.0 network and be forwarded out Serial 0/0.
- D.
The packet will most closely match the 192.168.0.8 subnet and be forwarded out Serial 0/1
Correct Answer
A. The packet will be dropped.Explanation
When the command "no ip classless" is issued on Router1, it means that the router will not perform classless routing. In this scenario, the packet received by Router1 and destined for host 192.168.0.26 will not be forwarded to any specific network or interface. Instead, it will be dropped, as the router does not have the capability to determine the appropriate forwarding action for the packet.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Router R1 is configured as shown in the exhibit. PC1 on 172.16.1.0/24 network can reach the default gateway on R1. The rest of the routers are configured with the correct IP addresses on the interfaces. Routers R2 and R3 do not have static or dynamic routing enabled. How far will PC1 be able to successfully ping?
- A.
Router R1 Fa0/0 interface
- B.
Router R1 S0/0/0 interface
- C.
Router R2 S0/0/0 interface
- D.
Router R2 Fa0/0 and S0/0/1 interfaces
- E.
Router R3 Fa0/0 and S0/0/0 interfaces
Correct Answer
B. Router R1 S0/0/0 interfaceExplanation
PC1 will be able to successfully ping up to the interface connected to router R1 S0/0/0. Since routers R2 and R3 do not have static or dynamic routing enabled, they will not be able to forward the ping packets beyond their own interfaces. Therefore, PC1 will not be able to reach any devices connected to routers R2 and R3.Rate this question:

- B.
It will use the path A-D, and the paths A-C-D and A-B-D will be retained as the backup paths.
- C.
It will use all the paths equally in a round-robin fashion.
- D.
The traffic will be load-balanced between A-B-D and A-C-D.
Correct Answer
D. The traffic will be load-balanced between A-B-D and A-C-D.Explanation
The correct answer is that the traffic will be load-balanced between paths A-B-D and A-C-D. This means that the traffic will be divided between these two paths, allowing for better utilization of network resources and potentially improving overall network performance.Rate this question:

Which two statements are true regarding link-state routing protocols? (Choose two.)
- A.
They are aware of the complete network topology.
- B.
They offer rapid convergence times in large networks.
- C.
They do not include subnet masks in their routing updates.
- D.
They rely on decreasing hop counts to determine the best path.
- E.
They do not work well in networks that require special hierarchical designs.
Correct Answer(s)
A. They are aware of the complete network topology.
B. They offer rapid convergence times in large networks.Explanation
Link-state routing protocols, such as OSPF and IS-IS, maintain a complete view of the network topology by exchanging link-state advertisements (LSAs) with neighboring routers. This allows them to have accurate and up-to-date information about the network, including the state of each link and the shortest path to each destination. As a result, they can make more informed routing decisions. Additionally, link-state protocols have faster convergence times compared to distance-vector protocols, as they only need to update the affected routers with the changes in the network rather than propagating the entire routing table.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. R1 knows two routes, Path A and Path B, to the Ethernet network attached to R3. R1 learned Path A to network 10.2.0.0/16 from a static route and Path B to network 10.2.0.0/16 from EIGRP. Which route will R1 install in its routing table?
- A.
Both routes are installed and load balancing occurs across both paths.
- B.
The route via Path B is installed because the EIGRP route has the best metric to network 10.2.0.0/16.
- C.
The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the best metric to network 10.2.0.0/16.
- D.
The route via Path B is installed because the EIGRP route has the lowest administrative distance to network 10.2.0.0/16.
- E.
The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the lowest administrative distance to network 10.2.0.0/16.
Correct Answer
E. The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the lowest administrative distance to network 10.2.0.0/16.Explanation
The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the lowest administrative distance to network 10.2.0.0/16. Administrative distance is a value assigned to different routing protocols to determine their reliability or trustworthiness. In this case, the static route has a lower administrative distance than the EIGRP route, so it is considered more reliable and is chosen as the preferred route.Rate this question:

12. What two routing protocols use a hierarchal network topology? (Choose two.)
- A.
IS-IS
- B.
EIGRP
- C.
OSPF
- D.
RIPv1
- E.
RIPv2
Correct Answer(s)
A. IS-IS
C. OSPFExplanation
IS-IS and OSPF are both routing protocols that use a hierarchical network topology. This means that they organize the network into different levels or areas, with each level having its own routing table. This hierarchy helps to improve scalability and efficiency in large networks. IS-IS and OSPF both use a link-state routing algorithm, which allows for the exchange of routing information between routers in the network. This information is used to build a complete picture of the network topology and determine the best path for forwarding packets.Rate this question:

R 192.168.9.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.2.1, 00:00:24, Serial0/0/0
- E.
R 192.168.2.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.1.2, 00:00:24, Serial0/0/0
Correct Answer(s)
B. R 192.168.100.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.1.1, 00:00:24, Serial0/0/0
C. S 192.168.1.0/24 [1/0] via FastEthernet0/0Explanation
Based on the output, the two routes that are added to the routing table of R1 are:
1. R 192.168.100.0/24 [120/1] via 172.16.1.1, 00:00:24, Serial0/0/0
2. S 192.168.1.0/24 [1/0] via FastEthernet0/0
The first route is learned through RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and has a metric of 120/1. It is reachable via the next hop 172.16.1.1 and the outgoing interface is Serial0/0/0.
The second route is a static route (indicated by the "S" in the output) and has a metric of 1/0. It is reachable via the next hop FastEthernet0/0.
These routes are added to the routing table of R1 based on the information received from the RIP protocol and the static route configuration.Rate this question:

Routes to networks 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, and 192.168.3.0/24 will be in the routing table.
- C.
The routing table will be empty because routes and dynamic routes have not been configured.
- D.
A default route is automatically installed in the routing table to allow connectivity between the networks.
Correct Answer
B. Routes to networks 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, and 192.168.3.0/24 will be in the routing table.Explanation
The correct answer is that routes to networks 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, and 192.168.3.0/24 will be in the routing table. This is because the router interfaces are configured with IP addresses and are operational, so the router will automatically include these directly connected networks in its routing table. However, since no routing protocols or static routes are configured, there will be no other routes in the routing table.Rate this question:

Which network design feature requires the deployment of a classless routing protocol?
- A.
Private IP addressing
- B.
Advertising default routes
- C.
Variable length subnet masks
- D.
Summarization on major network boundaries
Correct Answer
C. Variable length subnet masksExplanation
Variable length subnet masks (VLSM) is a network design feature that allows for the creation of subnets with different subnet mask lengths within a single network. This enables more efficient allocation of IP addresses and allows for better utilization of available address space. Classless routing protocols, such as OSPF and EIGRP, support VLSM by allowing routers to advertise subnets with different subnet mask lengths. Therefore, the deployment of a classless routing protocol is required to implement VLSM in a network design.Rate this question:

A network administrator needs to assign the very last usable IP address in the 172.24.64.0/18 network range to the router interface that serves this LAN. Which IP address should the administrator configure on the interface?
- A.
172.16.128.154/18
- B.
172.16.255.254/18
- C.
172.24.64.254/18
- D.
172.24.127.254/18
Correct Answer
D. 172.24.127.254/18Explanation
The given IP address 172.24.127.254/18 falls within the 172.24.64.0/18 network range. The /18 subnet mask indicates that the first 18 bits of the IP address are used to identify the network, leaving the remaining 14 bits for host addresses. Since the network administrator needs to assign the last usable IP address, the host portion should be set to its maximum value, which is 11111111 in binary or 127 in decimal. Therefore, the correct IP address for the router interface is 172.24.127.254.Rate this question:

- B.
It reduces the update timer to 15 seconds if there are more than 10 routes.
- C.
It uses triggered updates to announce network changes if they happen in between the periodic updates.
- D.
It uses random pings to detect if a pathway is down and therefore is preemptive on finding networks that are down
Correct Answer
C. It uses triggered updates to announce network changes if they happen in between the periodic updates.Explanation
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) uses triggered updates to announce network changes if they happen in between the periodic updates. This means that when a network change occurs, such as a link failure or a new route becoming available, RIP immediately sends an update to inform other routers about the change. This helps to reduce the convergence time in a larger network, as routers can quickly adjust their routing tables based on the updated information.Rate this question:

A network administrator has enabled RIP on routers B and C in the network diagram. Which of the following commands will prevent RIP updates from being sent to Router A?
- A.
A(config)# router rip A(config-router)# passive-interface S0/0
- B.
B(config)# router rip B(config-router)# network 192.168.25.48 B(config-router)# network 192.168.25.64

- D.
B(config)# router rip B(config-router)# passive-interface S0/0
- E.
A(config)# no router rip
Correct Answer
D. B(config)# router rip B(config-router)# passive-interface S0/0Explanation
The command "B(config)# router rip B(config-router)# passive-interface S0/0" will prevent RIP updates from being sent to Router A. By configuring the interface S0/0 as passive, Router B will not send RIP updates out of that interface, effectively preventing Router A from receiving any RIP updates.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Both routers are using the RIP protocol. Devices on the 192.168.1.1 network can ping the S0/0/0 interface on R2 but cannot ping devices on the 192.168.2.1 network. What is a possible cause of this problem?
- A.
The routers are configured with different versions of RIP.
- B.
R2 is not forwarding the routing updates.
- C.
The R1 configuration should include the no auto-summary command.
- D.
The maximum path number has been exceeded.
Correct Answer
A. The routers are configured with different versions of RIP.Explanation
The possible cause of the problem is that the routers are configured with different versions of RIP. This can lead to incompatibility between the routers, causing devices on the 192.168.1.1 network to be able to ping the S0/0/0 interface on R2 but not devices on the 192.168.2.1 network.Rate this question:

Which two statements are correct about the split horizon with poison reverse method of routing loop prevention? (Choose two.)
- A.
It is enabled by default on all Cisco IOS implementations
- B.
It assigns a value that represents an infinite metric to the poisoned route.
- C.
It instructs routers to hold all changes that might affect routes, for a specified period of time.
- D.
It sends back the poisoned route update to the same interface from where it was received.
- E.
It limits the number of hops a packet can traverse through the network before it is discarded
Correct Answer(s)
B. It assigns a value that represents an infinite metric to the poisoned route.
D. It sends back the poisoned route update to the same interface from where it was received.Explanation
The split horizon with poison reverse method of routing loop prevention assigns an infinite metric to the poisoned route, indicating that the route is unreachable. This helps prevent routing loops by making the route undesirable for selection. Additionally, this method sends back the poisoned route update to the same interface from where it was received. This ensures that the routers are aware of the poisoned route and can update their routing tables accordingly.Rate this question:

Paris(config)# router eigrp Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.6.0
- C.
Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.7.0
- D.
Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.8.0
- E.
Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.9.0
Correct Answer(s)
A. Paris(config)# router eigrp 100
C. Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.7.0
D. Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.8.0Explanation
The three commands needed to configure EIGRP on the Paris router are "Paris(config)# router eigrp 100", "Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.7.0", and "Paris(config-router)# network 192.168.8.0". The first command enables EIGRP routing protocol on the router with an autonomous system number of 100. The second and third commands advertise the network 192.168.7.0 and 192.168.8.0 respectively, allowing EIGRP to form neighbor relationships and exchange routing information with other routers in those networks.Rate this question:

Which three statements describe the operation of routing with EIGRP? (Choose three.)
- A.
As new neighbors are discovered, entries are placed in a neighbor table.
- B.
If the feasible successor has a higher advertised cost than the current successor route, then it becomes the primary route.
- C.
If hello packets are not received within the hold time, DUAL must recalculate the topology.
- D.
The reported distance is the distance to a destination as advertised by a neighbor.
- E.
EIGRP maintains full knowledge of the network topology in the topology table and exchanges full routing information with neighboring routers in every update.
Correct Answer(s)
A. As new neighbors are discovered, entries are placed in a neighbor table.
C. If hello packets are not received within the hold time, DUAL must recalculate the topology.
D. The reported distance is the distance to a destination as advertised by a neighbor.Explanation
EIGRP uses a neighbor table to keep track of newly discovered neighbors. If hello packets are not received within the hold time, the DUAL (Diffusing Update Algorithm) must recalculate the network topology. The reported distance is the distance to a destination as advertised by a neighboring router.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. What happens to a packet that has 172.16.0.0/16 as the best match in the routing table that is shown? .
- A.
The packet is discarded.
- B.
The packet is flooded out all interfaces
- C.
The packet is forwarded via Serial0/0/0.
- D.
The packet is forwarded via FastEthernet0/0.
Correct Answer
A. The packet is discarded.Explanation
When a packet has 172.16.0.0/16 as the best match in the routing table, it means that this is the most specific match for the destination IP address of the packet. However, the exhibit does not show any corresponding interface or next hop for this route. In such cases, the router does not know how to forward the packet and it is therefore discarded.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Two routers are unable to establish an adjacency. What is the possible cause for this?
- A.
The two routers are connected on a multiaccess network.
- B.
The hello and dead intervals are different on the two routers.
- C.
They have different OSPF router IDs.
- D.
They have different process IDs
Correct Answer
B. The hello and dead intervals are different on the two routers.Explanation
The possible cause for the two routers being unable to establish an adjacency is that the hello and dead intervals are different on the two routers. The hello interval is the time interval between the transmission of hello packets, which are used to discover and maintain OSPF neighbor relationships. The dead interval is the time interval after which a neighbor is considered unreachable if no hello packets are received. If the hello and dead intervals are different on the two routers, they will not be able to synchronize their timing for neighbor discovery and maintenance, leading to the failure of adjacency establishment.Rate this question:

R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.15.255 area 0
- D.
R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.31.255 area 0
Correct Answer
D. R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.31.255 area 0Explanation
The correct answer is R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.31.255 area 0. This command is used to advertise the entire range of addresses included in the 172.16.0.0/19 network in area 0 of the OSPF routing protocol. The 0.0.31.255 subnet mask is used to include all addresses from 172.16.0.0 to 172.16.31.255.Rate this question:

What should be considered when troubleshooting a problem with the establishment of neighbor relationships between OSPF routers? (Choose two.)
- A.
OSPF interval timers mismatch
- B.
Administrative distance mismatch
- C.
Interface network type mismatch
- D.
No loopback interface configured
- E.
Gateway of last resort not redistributed
Correct Answer(s)
A. OSPF interval timers mismatch
C. Interface network type mismatchExplanation
When troubleshooting a problem with the establishment of neighbor relationships between OSPF routers, two factors should be considered. First, OSPF interval timers mismatch can cause issues as the routers may not be able to synchronize their timing, leading to failed neighbor relationships. Second, interface network type mismatch can also cause problems as OSPF requires that all routers on a network segment have the same network type configured. If there is a mismatch, the routers may not be able to form neighbor relationships.Rate this question:

Which two components are used to determine the router ID in the configuration of the OSPF routing process? (Choose two.)
- A.
The IP address of the first FastEthernet interface
- B.
The highest IP address of any logical interface
- C.
The highest IP address of any physical interface
- D.
The default gateway IP address
- E.
The priority value of 1 on any physical interface
Correct Answer(s)
B. The highest IP address of any logical interface
C. The highest IP address of any pHysical interfaceExplanation
The router ID in the configuration of the OSPF routing process is determined by the highest IP address of any logical interface and the highest IP address of any physical interface. These two components are used to uniquely identify the router within the OSPF network. The router ID is important for OSPF to establish adjacencies and calculate the shortest path to destination networks. The highest IP address of any logical interface and physical interface are used to ensure that the router ID remains stable even if interface configurations change.Rate this question:

What is the function of the OSPF LSR packet? .
- A.
It is used to confirm the receipt of LSUs.
- B.
It is used to establish and maintain adjacency with other OSPF routers.
- C.
It is used by the receiving routers to request more information about any entry in the DBD.
- D.
It is used to check the database synchronization between routers
Correct Answer
C. It is used by the receiving routers to request more information about any entry in the DBD.Explanation
The OSPF LSR packet is used by the receiving routers to request more information about any entry in the DBD (Database Description). This packet allows the receiving router to obtain additional details or updates from the sending router regarding the entries in the database. It helps in ensuring that the routers have the most up-to-date information about the network topology and can make informed routing decisions.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. All interfaces are configured with the correct IP addresses and subnet masks. OSPF has been configured as the routing protocol. During troubleshooting, it is determined that hosts on network B can ping the Lo0 interface on R1 but are unable to reach hosts on network A. What is the cause of the problem?
- A.
Routers R1 and R2 have incorrect router IDs configured.
- B.
Router R1 is unable to form a neighbor relationship with router R2.
- C.
Routers R1 and R2 have been configured in different OSPF areas.
- D.
The configuration of router R1 fails to include network A in the OSPF routing process
Correct Answer
D. The configuration of router R1 fails to include network A in the OSPF routing processExplanation
The cause of the problem is that the configuration of router R1 fails to include network A in the OSPF routing process. This means that router R1 is not advertising network A to the OSPF neighbors, including router R2. As a result, hosts on network B can ping the Lo0 interface on R1 because it is directly connected, but they cannot reach hosts on network A because the OSPF routing table does not have the necessary information to route traffic to that network.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Router D will be elected DR, and router C will become the BDR.Explanation
In OSPF, the DR (Designated Router) is responsible for maintaining neighbor relationships with all routers on a multiaccess network, while the BDR (Backup Designated Router) acts as a backup in case the DR fails. When router A fails and is replaced by router D, the election process for the DR and BDR will occur. Since router D has the highest OSPF priority among the routers, it will be elected as the new DR. Router C, which has the second-highest OSPF priority, will become the new BDR. Therefore, the correct answer is "Router D will be elected DR, and router C will become the BDR."Rate this question:
