7. Which of the following conditions must be met in order for a network to have converged?

The routers in the network are operating with dynamic routing protocols.

The routers in the network are operating with compatible versions of IOS.

The routers in the network are operating with the same routing tables.

The routers in the network are operating with consistent routing knowledge.

8. Why is fast convergence desirable in networks that use dynamic routing protocols?

Routers will not allow packets to be forwarded until the network has converged.

Host are unable to access their gateway until the network has converged.

Routers may make incorrect forwarding decisions until the network has converged.

Routers will not allow configuration changes to be made until the network has converged.

9. How does a router learn about routes to a network? (Choose three.)

Information is gathered from its own configuration regarding directly connected networks.

Switches forward destination address information to each router.

Other routers forward information about known networks.

Routes are entered manually by a network administrator.

Routes are learned from information gathered from ARP tables

11. Which of the following statements are true regarding the command ip route 172.16.1.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.2.1? (Choose three.)

This command is used to set up a static route.

This command is used to set up a default route.

This command is entered from global configuration mode.

All packets intended for network 172.16.1.0 will be sent to gateway 172.16.2.1.

All packets intended for network 172.16.2.1 will be sent to gateway 172.16.1.0.

Submit

12. What can be concluded about the routing process on a router if the commands 'router rip and network 192.5.5.0 have been issued? (Choose three.)

A distance vector routing protocol was used.

A link state routing protocol was used.

Routing updates will broadcast every 30 seconds.

Routing updates will broadcast every 90 seconds.

Hop count is the only metric used for route selection.

Submit

13. What is the purpose of a routing protocol?

It is used to build and maintain ARP tables.

It provides a method for segmenting and reassembling data packets.

It allows an administrator to devise an addressing scheme for the network.

It allows a router to share information about known networks with other routers.

It provides a procedure for encoding and decoding data into bits for packet forwarding.

14. 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

15. Describe the switching function that occurs in a router.

Allows the router to make forwarding decisions based on Layer 2 addressing

Uses network addressing to select the best route and interface to forward data

Accepts a packet on one interface and forwards it to a second interface

Enables the router to select the most appropriate interface for forwarding a packet

16. Assuming that the network shown in the graphic is converged and dynamic routing is enabled, which of the following conditions will cause a modification to the Orlando routing table? (Choose two.)

The device connecting the S0 interface of the Tampa router to the serial link loses power.

A network administrator shuts down the Orlando router E0 interface.

A DCHP server connected to the Tampa E1 network loses power.

Submit

17. Select the statements that describe link-state routing processes? (Choose three.)

Each router develops its own map of the entire network.

Routers send triggered updates when changes in the network occur.

Link-state routing protocols place a higher load on router resources during the routing protocol initialization.

Link-state protocols are more prone to routing loops than distance vector routing protocols.

Networks using link-state routing protocols are slower to reach convergence after changes have occurred than those using distance vector protocols.
