Refer to the exhibit. All routers are running RIPv1. The two networks 10.1.1.0/29 and 10.1.1.16/29 are unable to access eachother. What can be the cause of this problem?Because RIPv1 is a classless protocol, it does not support this access.*RIPv1 does not support discontiguous networks.RIPv1 does not support load balancing.RIPv1 does not support automatic summarization.

3Which two statements are correct about the split horizon with poison reverse method of routing loop prevention? (Choosetwo.)It is enabled by default on all Cisco IOS implementations.*It assigns a value that represents an infinite metric to the poisoned route.It sends back the poisoned route update to the same interface from where it was received.It instructs routers to hold all changes that might affect routes, for a specified period of time.*It limits the number of hops a packet can traverse through the network before it is discarded.

Holddown timers are used to prevent regular update messages from inappropriately reinstating a route that may have gone bad. The split horizon rule says that a router should not advertise a network through the interface from which the update came. Route poisoning is used to mark the route as unreachable in a routing update that is sent to other routers. The rule for split horizon with poison reverse states when sending updates out a specific interface, designate any networks that were learned on that interface as unreachable.

4What are two reasons for the occurrence of a routing loop? (Choose two.)slow convergence*incorrectly configured static routesroutes that are learned via two routing protocols*static and dynamic routing being used on the same routerlack of a default route on the router that connects to the Internet

The loop may be a result of: Incorrectly configured static routes Incorrectly configured route redistribution (redistribution is a process of handing the routing information from one routing protocol to another routing protocol and is discussed in CCNP-level courses) Inconsistent routing tables not being updated due to slow convergence in a changing network Incorrectly configured or installed discard routes

5All routers in a network are configured in a single OSPF area with the same priority value. No loopback interface has beenset on any of the routers. Which secondary value will the routers use to determine the router ID?The highest MAC address among the active interfaces of the network will be used.There will be no router ID until a loopback interface is configured.The highest IP address among the active FastEthernet interfaces that are running OSPF will be used.*The highest IP address among the active interfaces will be used.

Determining the Router ID The OSPF router ID is used to uniquely identify each router in the OSPF routing domain. A router ID is simply an IP address. Cisco routers derive the router ID based on three criteria and with the following precedence: 1. Use the IP address configured with the OSPF router-id command. 2. If the router-id is not configured, the router chooses highest IP address of any of its loopback interfaces. 3. If no loopback interfaces are configured, the router chooses highest active IP address of any of its physical interfaces.

Refer to the exhibit. Although R2 is configured correctly, host A is unable to access the Internet. What are two staticroutes that can be configured on R1, either of which would enable Internet connectivity for host A? (Choose two.)

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Fa0/0*ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Fa0/1ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.1.1*ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.1.2ip route 209.165.202.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.1.1

7What is the function of the OSPF LSR packet?It is used to confirm the receipt of LSUs.It is used to establish and maintain adjacency with other OSPF routers.*It is used by the receiving routers to request more information about any entry in the DBD.It is used to check the database synchronization between routers

1. Hello - Hello packets are used to establish and maintain adjacency with other OSPF routers. 2. DBD - The Database Description (DBD) packet contains an abbreviated list of the sending router's link-state database and is used by receiving routers to check against the local link-state database. 3. LSR - Receiving routers can then request more information about any entry in the DBD by sending a Link-State Request (LSR). 4. LSU - Link-State Update (LSU) packets are used to reply to LSRs as well as to announce new information. LSUs contain seven different types of Link-State Advertisements (LSAs). LSUs and LSAs are briefly discussed in a later topic. 5. LSAck - When an LSU is received, the router sends a Link-State Acknowledgement (LSAck) to confirm receipt of the LSU.

9Which two technologies can be used in distance vector routing protocols to prevent routing loops? (Choose two.)authenticationlink-state advertisements*hold-down timersSpanning Tree Protocol*split horizon

Page 3: CCNA2 - Rounting Protocols and Concepts

Holddown timers are used to prevent regular update messages from inappropriately reinstating a route that may have gone bad. The split horizon rule says that a router should not advertise a network through the interface from which the update came. Route poisoning is used to mark the route as unreachable in a routing update that is sent to other routers. The rule for split horizon with poison reverse states when sending updates out a specific interface, designate any networks that were learned on that interface as unreachable.

Page 45: CCNA2 - Rounting Protocols and Concepts

29. Which network design feature requires the deployment of a classless routing protocol? private IP addressing advertising default routes variable length subnet masks summarization on major network boundaries

30. 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? 172.16.128.154/18 172.16.255.254/18 172.24.64.254/18 172.24.127.254/18

31. Refer to the exhibit. All routers are running RIPv1. The two networks 10.1.1.0/29 and 10.1.1.16/29 are unable to access each other. What can be the cause of this problem?

Because RIPv1 is a classless protocol, it does not support this access. RIPv1 does not support discontiguous networks. RIPv1 does not support load balancing. RIPv1 does not support automatic summarization.

32. Refer to the exhibit. What information can be determined from the highlighted output?

R1 is originating the route 172.30.200.32/28. Automatic summarization is disabled. The 172.30.200.16/28 network is one hop away from R1. A classful routing protocol is being used

33. What does RIP use to reduce convergence time in a larger network? It uses multicast instead of broadcast to send routing updates. It reduces the update timer to 15 seconds if there are more than 10 routes. It uses triggered updates to announce network changes if they happen in between the periodic updates. It uses random pings to detect if a pathway is down and therefore is preemptive on finding networks that are down

Page 46: CCNA2 - Rounting Protocols and Concepts

34. 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(config)# router rip A(config-router)# passive-interface S0/0 B(config)# router rip B(config-router)# network 192.168.25.48 B(config-router)# network 192.168.25.64 A(config)# router rip A(config-router)# no network 192.168.25.32 B(config)# router rip B(config-router)# passive-interface S0/0 A(config)# no router rip

35. 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? The routers are configured with different versions of RIP. R2 is not forwarding the routing updates. The R1 configuration should include the no auto-summary command. The maximum path number has been exceeded.

36. Which two statements are correct about the split horizon with poison reverse method of routing loop prevention? (Choose two.) It is enabled by default on all Cisco IOS implementations. It assigns a value that represents an infinite metric to the poisoned route. It sends back the poisoned route update to the same interface from where it was received. It instructs routers to hold all changes that might affect routes, for a specified period of time. It limits the number of hops a packet can traverse through the network before it is discarded

Page 47: CCNA2 - Rounting Protocols and Concepts

37. Refer to exhibit. Given the topology shown in the exhibit, what three commands are needed to configure EIGRP on the Paris router? (Choose three.)

38. A router has EIGRP configured as the only routing protocol. In what way might EIGRP respond if there is no feasible successor route to a destination network and the successor route fails? It broadcasts hello packets to all routers in the network to re-establish neighbor adjacencies. It sends queries to adjacent neighbors until a new successor route is found. It immediately sends its entire routing table to its neighbors. It will set the metric for the failed route to infinity.

39. Refer to the exhibit. Hosts on the BOS Fa0/0 LAN are able to ping the Fa0/1 interface on the JAX router and all interfaces on the BOS and ORL routers. Why would hosts from the 10.0.0.0/24 network not be able to ping hosts on the Fa0/0 LAN of the JAX router?

The JAX router has the wrong process ID. The JAX router needs the network 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 command. The JAX router needs the network 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 command. The BOS router needs the network 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 command

40. Which three statements describe the operation of routing with EIGRP? (Choose three.) As new neighbors are discovered, entries are placed in a neighbor table. If the feasible successor has a higher advertised cost than the current successor route, then it becomes the primary route. If hello packets are not received within the hold time, DUAL must recalculate the topology. The reported distance is the distance to a destination as advertised by a neighbor. EIGRP maintains full knowledge of the network topology in the topology table and exchanges full routing information with neighboring routers in every update.

Page 48: CCNA2 - Rounting Protocols and Concepts

EIGRP builds one routing table that contains routes for all configured routed protocols.

41. 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?

43. Refer to the exhibit. Which two statements are true based on the exhibited output? (Choose two.)

Automatic summarization is disabled. The EIGRP routing protocol is being used. There is one feasible successor in the routing table. The serial interface S0/0/0 is administratively down. The router is originating the route to 172.16.1.0/24 via the S0/0/0 interface

44. Refer to the exhibit. Two routers are unable to establish an adjacency. What is the possible cause for this?

The two routers are connected on a multiaccess network.

Page 49: CCNA2 - Rounting Protocols and Concepts

The hello and dead intervals are different on the two routers. They have different OSPF router IDs. They have different process IDs

45. What command would the network administrator apply to a router that is running OSPF to advertise the entire range of addresses included in 172.16.0.0/19 in area 0? R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.3.255 area 0 R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.15.255 area 0 R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.31.255 area 0

46. What should be considered when troubleshooting a problem with the establishment of neighbor relationships between OSPF routers? (Choose two.) OSPF interval timers mismatch administrative distance mismatch interface network type mismatch no loopback interface configured gateway of last resort not redistributed

47. Which two components are used to determine the router ID in the configuration of the OSPF routing process? (Choose two.) the IP address of the first FastEthernet interface the highest IP address of any logical interface the highest IP address of any physical interface the default gateway IP address the priority value of 1 on any physical interface

48. What is the function of the OSPF LSR packet? It is used to confirm the receipt of LSUs. It is used to establish and maintain adjacency with other OSPF routers. It is used by the receiving routers to request more information about any entry in the DBD. It is used to check the database synchronization between routers.

49. 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?

Routers R1 and R2 have incorrect router IDs configured. Router R1 is unable to form a neighbor relationship with router R2. Routers R1 and R2 have been configured in different OSPF areas. The configuration of router R1 fails to include network A in the OSPF routing process

Page 50: CCNA2 - Rounting Protocols and Concepts

50. Refer to the exhibit. The interface addresses and OSPF priorities are configured as shown. Because of the boot order of the routers, router A is currently the DR and router B is the BDR.
