9.3.2 Module Quiz – FHRP Concepts Answers
1. What is the purpose of HSRP?
- It prevents a rogue switch from becoming the STP root.
- It provides a continuous network connection when a router fails.
- It enables an access port to immediately transition to the forwarding state.
- It prevents malicious hosts from connecting to trunk ports.
2. Which nonproprietary protocol provides router redundancy for a group of routers which support IPv4 LANs?
- SLB
- HSRP
- VRRPv2
- GLBP
3. A network administrator is analyzing first-hop router redundancy protocols. What is a characteristic of VRRPv3?
- It works together with HSRP.
- It allows load balancing between routers.
- VRRPv3 is Cisco proprietary.
- It supports IPv6 and IPv4 addressing.
4. What is a potential disadvantage when implementing HSRP as compared to GLBP?
- HSRP provides default gateway failover only when the active router fails.
- HSRP does not function in a multivendor environment.
- HSRP does not provide load balancing with multiple active routers.
- HSRP does not have the capability to support IPv6 addresses.
5. A network engineer is configuring a LAN with a redundant first hop to make better use of the available network resources. Which protocol should the engineer implement?
- HSRP
- GLBP
- FHRP
- VRRP
6. When first hop redundancy protocols are used, which two items will be shared by a set of routers that are presenting the illusion of being a single router? (Choose two.)
- IP address
- BID
- hostname
- MAC address
- static route
7. In FHRP terminology, what represents a set of routers that present the illusion of a single router to hosts?
- virtual router
- default gateway
- forwarding router
- standby router
8. A user needs to add redundancy to the routers in a company. What are the three options the user can use? (Choose three.)
- HSRP
- VRRP
- RAID
- STP
- GLBP
- IPFIX
9. Which two protocols provide gateway redundancy at Layer 3? (Choose two.)
- HSRP
- PVST
- STP
- VRRP
- RSTP
10. A network administrator is overseeing the implementation of first hop redundancy protocols. Which two protocols are Cisco proprietary? (Choose two.)
- IRDP
- GLBP
- VRRP
- VRRPv2
- HSRP
11. Which statement describes a characteristic of GLBP?
- It provides automatic rerouting if any router in the group fails.
- It does not provide support for IPv6.
- It provides multiple virtual IP addresses and multiple virtual MAC addresses.
- It provides load balancing for a maximum of four gateways.
12. A network administrator is analyzing the features that are supported by different first-hop router redundancy protocols. Which statement is a feature that is associated with GLBP?
- GLBP allows load balancing between routers.
- It is nonproprietary.
- It uses a virtual router master.
- It works together with VRRP.
13. Which statement about HSRP operation is true?
- HSRP supports only clear-text authentication.
- The active router responds to requests for the virtual MAC and virtual IP address.
- The AVF responds to default gateway ARP requests.
- The HSRP virtual IP address must be the same as one of the router’s interface addresses on the LAN.
14. Which HSRP preemption statement is true?
- It enables a router that boots first to become the active router.
- It is enabled by default.
- It is enabled using the standby preempt interface command.
- It is enabled using the standby priority interface command.
15. Which statement regarding VRRP is true?
- VRRP elects a master router and one or more other routers as backup routers.
- VRRP elects a master router, one backup router, and all other routers are standby routers.
- VRRP elects an active router and a standby router, and all other routers are backup routers.
- VRRP is a Cisco proprietary protocol.
16. A network administrator is overseeing the implementation of first hop redundancy protocols. Which protocol is a Cisco proprietary protocol?
- HSRP
- IRDP
- Proxy ARP
- VRRP
17. Which is a characteristic of the HSRP Learn state?
- The router actively participates in the active/standby election process.
- The router has not determined the virtual IP address.
- The router knows the virtual IP address.
- The router sends periodic hello messages.
18. A network administrator is analyzing the features that are supported by different first-hop router redundancy protocols. Which statement describes a feature that is associated with VRRP?
- VRRP assigns active and standby routers.
- VRRP assigns an IP address and default gateway to hosts.
- VRRP enables load balancing between a group of redundant routers.
- VRRP is a non-proprietary protocol.
19. When HSRP is used in a network, what destination MAC address is used in frames that are sent from the workstation to the default gateway?
- MAC address of the forwarding router
- MAC addresses of both the forwarding and standby routers
- MAC address of the standby router
- MAC address of the virtual router
20. What happens to a host in an HSRP network when the active router fails?
- The host initiates a new ARP request.
- The host stops seeing hello messages from the active router.
- The host uses the standby router IP and MAC addresses.
- The host will notice little or no disruption of service.
21. Which of the following correctly describes GLBP?
- It is a Cisco proprietary FHRP and provides redundancy and load sharing.
- It is an open standard FHRP.
- It uses virtual master routers and one or more backup routers.
- It is a legacy open standard FHRP that allows IPv4 hosts to discover gateway routers.
