CCNA Exploration2: Routing Protocols

and Concepts – Final Exam

01.

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?

• Both routes are installed and load balancing occurs across both paths.
• The route via Path B is installed because the EIGRP route has the best metric to
network 10.2.0.0/16.
• The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the best metric to
network 10.2.0.0/16.
• The route via Path B is installed because the EIGRP route has the lowest
administrative distance to network 10.2.0.0/16.
• The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the lowest administrative
distance to network 10.2.0.0/16.

discarded.

boot system command?

10. 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.
• EIGRP builds one routing table that contains routes for all configured routed
protocols.

the Internet. What step should be taken to remedy the problem?

• A new static route must be configured on R1 with the R3 serial interface as the next
hop.
• A new default route must be configured on R1 with the R3 serial interface as the next
hop.
• The default route on R2 should be configured with the R3 serial interface as the next
hop.
• The default route on R2 must be replaced with a new static route and the next hop
should be the R1 FastEthernet interface.
37. 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.

41.

Refer to the exhibit.

• Router D will be elected DR, and router B will remain the BDR.
• Router C will become the DR, and router B will become the BDR.

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?
