3. The MPLS Label Switched Paths (LSP) are unidirectional.

Explanation

Eventhough Label Switched Paths (LSP) are unidirectional, since they are constructed from an IGP IP best routes, they are usually symentric. That is, the labels that compose the LSP from A to B is usually the sames that the LSP from B to A.

Submit

4. VRF Lite, also known as Multi-VRF CE, provides multiple instance of IP routing tables in a single router.

Submit

5. In a MPLS header, which field is used for QoS marking?

Explanation

EXP field is used for QoS marking; the field is no longer used for truly experimental purposes.

Submit

6. In a MPLS L3 VPN, the inner label (S-bit = 1) serves to indicate to the egress PE router the VRF that the packet belongs to. The VRF will then uses its FIB to forward the packet the corresponding outgoing interface. The inner label is calles the "VPN Label".

Submit

7. In a MPLS VPN, for a particular IPv4 prefix the RT and RD can have the same value or a different value.

Explanation

In a MPLS VPN, a particular prefix the value of its Route Distinguisher (RD) can be equal or different to its Route Targer (RT) assigned to it.

Submit

8. MPLS belongs to the family of packet-switched networks.

Submit

9. The "ip vrf forwarding" interface subcommand, associates an interface with a VRF. Executing this command on an interface removes the IP address. The IP address should be reconfigured.

Submit

10. Which feature allows a service provider to provide MPLS VPN to multiple customers connected to the same PE router?

Submit

11. The MPLS Label Switched Paths (LSP) process of advertising labels is based (triggered) on the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP).

Submit

12. MPLS includes 2 labeling mode: Frame and Cell modes. With Frame Mode MPLS, the label is inserted between the Layer 2 and Layer 3 header. With Cell Mode MPLS, the fields in the ATM header are used as the label.

Submit

13. In a Layer 3 MPLS VPN (RFC2547) environment, the PE router's data plane has to place 2 labels on incoming packets: - The outer label (S-bit=0), identifying that the packet is destined to the egress PE router at the over end of the Layer 3 MPLS VPN. - The inner label (S-bit=1), identifying which Virtual Routing/Forwarding (VRF) instance to use for the subsequent IP routing lookup at the egress PE router.

Submit

14. The MPLS Label Information Base (LIB) contains all labels known by the LSR, whether the label is currently used for forwarding of not.

Submit

15. In a MPLS VPN, a prefix, of a particular VRF, can have only one RD, but multiple RT assigned to it.

Explanation

In a MPLS VPN, a particular prefix can have only one Route Distinguisher (RD), but multiple Route Targer (RT) assigned to it.

Submit

16. By default, LSR reads the TTL field in the IP header of the incoming packet, decrements it by 1, and copies what is left into the TTL field of the MPLS header. The core LSRs only look at the uppermost label. If the TTL value does not reach 0, the packet is forwarded. The egress edge LSR that pops the label copies what is left in the label TTL field into the TTL field of the IP header and then forwards the IP packet outside the MPLS domain.

Submit

Submit

22. What concept allows MP-BGP to advertise and distinguish between duplicate IPv4 prefixes?

Submit

23. Which statement best define a Forwarding Equivalent Class (FEC)?

Submit

24. By default, the TTL field in an IP header is not decremented when passing throughout a MPLS network.

Explanation

The TTL field in an IP header is decremented at the Ingress E-LSR.
Then its value is copied in the MPLS TTL field, which is decremented along the MPLS path.
Finally the MPLS TTL value (decremented) is copied in the IP TTL field.

Explanation

In a MPLS L3 VPN, the inner label (S-bit = 1) serves to indicate to the egress PE router the VRF that the packet belongs to. The VRF will then uses its FIB to forward the packet the corresponding outgoing interface.

The inner label is calles the "VPN Label".

Submit

27. Which statement defines the MPLS VPN default feature Penultimate Hop Popping (PHP)?

Explanation

Penultimate Hop Popping (PHP) is a function performed by certain routers in an MPLS enabled network. It refers to the process whereby the outermost label of an MPLS tagged packet is removed by a Label Switch Router (LSR) before the packet is passed to an adjacent Label Edge Router (LER).

The process is important in a Layer 3 MPLS VPN (RFC2547) environment as it reduces the load on the LER. If this process didn't happen, the LER would have to perform at least 2 label lookups:

1.The outer label, identifying that the packet was destined to have its label stripped on this router.
2.The inner label, to identify which Virtual Routing/Forwarding (VRF) instance to use for the subsequent IP routing lookup.
In a large network this can result in the CPU load on the LER reaching unacceptable levels. By having PHP for an LER done on the LSRs connected to it, the load is effectively distributed among its neighbour routers.

PHP functionality is achieved by the LER advertising a label with a value of 3 to its neighbours. This label is defined as implicit-null and informs the neighbouring LSR(s) to perform PHP.

Submit

28. The MPLS Forwarding Information Base (FIB) and the Labeled Forwarding Information Base (LFIB) contains ONLY the best Label Switched Path (LSP).

Submit

35. In a Layer 3 MPLS VPN (RFC2547) environment, the PE router's control plane has to place 2 labels on incoming packets: - The outer label (S-bit=1), identifying that the packet is destined to the egress PE router at the over end of the Layer 3 MPLS VPN. - The inner label (S-bit=0), identifying which Virtual Routing/Forwarding (VRF) instance to use for the subsequent IP routing lookup at the egress PE router.

Explanation

- The outer label (S-bit=0), The inner label (S-bit=1).

Submit

36. What behavior can be changed with the no mpls ip propagate-ttl forwarded global configuration command?

Submit

37. The MPLS Forwarding Information Base (FIB) and the Labeled Forwarding Information Base (LFIB) contains ALL the Label Switched Path (LSP) segments.

Submit

38. By default, LSR reads the TTL field in the IP header of the incoming packet, decrements it by 1, and copies what is left into the TTL field of the MPLS header. The core LSRs only look at the uppermost label. The net result is that the IP header TTL does NOT reflect the hops taken across the MPLS core; so when customers perform a traceroute from one side of their network to another side, the routers in the MPLS core network do not appear in the traceroute information.

Explanation

This is not the default behavior, this is done by configuring the command no mpls ip propagate-ttl.

Submit

In a Layer 3 MPLS VPN (RFC2547) environment, the PE router's control plane has to place 2 labels on incoming packets: - The outer label (S-bit=0), identifying which Virtual Routing/Forwarding (VRF) instance to use for the subsequent IP routing lookup at the egress PE router. - The inner label (S-bit=1),  identifying that the packet is destined to the egress PE router at the over end of the Layer 3 MPLS VPN.

Explanation

- The outer label (S-bit=0), identifying that the packet is destined to the egress PE router at the over end of the Layer 3 MPLS VPN.

- The inner label (S-bit=1), identifying which Virtual Routing/Forwarding (VRF) instance to use for the subsequent IP routing lookup at the egress PE router.
