Assessment ERouting Final – CCNA 2 Exploration: Routing Protocols and Concepts (Version 4.0)

1. Refer to the exhibit. The network consists of hundreds of routers branched from connected regional distribution sites using single area OSPF. Recent network failures caused packet flooding and route recalculations in all branch networks. What should the engineer do to minimize the effect of the routing instabilities?

CCNA Exploration 2: ERouting Final Exam Answers (v4.0) 1

  • Adopt RIPv2 which is not subject to packet flooding.
  • Implement static routing.
  • Implement a mix of routing protocols to contain the instabilities.
  • Change the topology to a heirarchical design which puts each branch network in its own area.

2. Refer to the routing table shown in the exhibit. What is the meaning of the highlighted value 192?

CCNA Exploration 2: ERouting Final Exam Answers (v4.0) 2

  • It is the value assigned by the Dijkstra algorithm that designates the number of hops in the network.
  • It is the value used by the DUAL algorithm to determine the bandwidth for the link.
  • It is the metric, which is cost.
  • It is the administrative distance.

3. Which three statements are true regarding the encapsulation and de-encapsulation of packets when traveling through a router? (Choose three.)

  • The router modifies the TTL field, decrementing it by one.
  • The router changes the source IP to the IP of the exit interface.
  • The router maintains the same source and destination IP.
  • The router changes the source physical address to the physical address of the exit interface.
  • The router changes the destination IP to the IP of the exit interface.
  • The router sends the packet out all other interfaces, besides the one it entered the router on.

4. Which of the following are required when adding a network to the OSPF routing process configuration? (Choose three.)

  • network address
  • loopback address
  • autonomous system number
  • subnet mask
  • wildcard mask
  • area ID

5. The command ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.2.2 was entered into the router. After network changes were made, the new next hop for the 192.168.2.0/24 network is 172.16.5.1. What should an administrator do so that the router will use the new next hop to reach the 192.168.2.0 network?

  • Enter the command clear ip route *.
  • Lower the administrative distance for the new path to ensure that it is used first.
  • Negate the original command and enter a new static route with the new next hop.
  • Nothing. The router will learn of the new next hop and automatically update the route table.

6. When would the network administrator use the ip bandwidth-percent eigrp as-number percent command?

  • when there is a low bandwidth connection
  • when the connection is on a shared medium
  • when the connection is serial instead of Ethernet
  • when the link is always busy

Explanation: By default, EIGRP will use only up to 50 percent of an interface’s bandwidth for EIGRP information. This prevents the EIGRP process from over-utilizing a link and not allowing enough bandwidth for the routing of normal traffic. However, if a connection is in low bandwidth, the up to 50 percent bandwidth may not be able to keep up the EIGRP information exchange. The ip bandwidth-percent eigrp command can be used to configure the percentage of bandwidth that may be used by EIGRP on an interface in such a scenario.

7. A router in an EIGRP enterprise network has a default route configured via the interface that connects to the ISP. Which command would the network administrator apply on this router so that other routers in the EIGRP AS 100 network will use this default route?

  • redistribute static
  • redistribute eigrp 100
  • redistribute connected
  • default-information originate

8. What is the purpose of the TTL field within an IP packet header?

  • clears an unreachable route from the routing table after the invalid timer expires
  • prevents regular update messages from inappropriately reinstating a route that may have gone bad
  • removes an unreachable route from the routing table after the flush timer expires
  • limits the period of time or number of hops a packet can traverse through the network before it should be discarded
  • used to mark the route as unreachable in a routing update that is sent to other routers

9. Refer to the exhibit. How many routes are both level 1 and qualify for use as an ultimate route?

226. 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?

CCNA Exploration 2: ERouting Final Exam Answers (v4.0) 124

  • 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.

Explanation: The reason why hosts from the 10.0.0.0/24 network would not be able to ping hosts on the Fa0/0 LAN of the JAX router is because the JAX router does not have the network 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 command configured. This command is necessary to advertise the 192.168.3.0 network to other routers in the OSPF area. Without this command, the JAX router will not include the Fa0/0 interface in its OSPF advertisements, preventing hosts from the 10.0.0.0/24 network from reaching the Fa0/0 LAN.

227. 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.

Explanation: RIP uses triggered updates to announce network changes if they happen in between the periodic updates. This helps to reduce convergence time in a larger network by quickly informing routers about any changes in the network topology. Instead of waiting for the next periodic update, routers immediately send triggered updates to inform other routers about the changes. This allows for faster convergence and ensures that all routers have the most up-to-date information about the network

228. If a router is booting with its default configuration register setting and its NVRAM lacks boot system commands, from where will the router try to load the IOS image first?

  • ROM
  • RAM
  • NVRAM
  • flash
  • TFTP server

229. On a router, which actions can be performed in user mode?

  • perform password recovery
  • make global configuration changes
  • view current router configuration
  • make changes to a specified interface

230. Refer to the exhibit. What are the effects of the exhibited commands on the router?

CCNA Exploration 2: ERouting Final Exam Answers (v4.0) 125

  • All passwords are encrypted.
  • Only Telnet sessions are encrypted.
  • Only the enable password is encrypted.
  • Only the enable password and Telnet session are encrypted.
  • Enable and console passwords are encrypted.

Explanation: The exhibited commands have the effect of encrypting only the enable password on the router. This means that the enable password, which is used to gain privileged access to the router, is protected and cannot be easily deciphered if intercepted. However, the other passwords, such as the console password and Telnet session password, are not encrypted and remain vulnerable to potential security breaches.

231. A network administrator has configured a default route on Router_A but it is not being shared with adjacent Router_B and the other routers in the OSPF area. Which command will save the administrator the time and trouble of configuring this default route on Router_B and all of the other routers in the OSPF area?

  • Router_A(config-router)# ospf redistribute default-route
  • Router_B(config-router)# ospf redistribute default-route
  • Router_A(config-router)# default-information originate
  • Router_B(config-router)# default-information originate
  • Router_A(config-router)# ip ospf update-default
  • Router_B(config-router)# ip ospf update-default

Explanation: The correct answer is Router_A(config-router)# default-information originate. This command will advertise the default route from Router_A to Router_B and all other routers in the OSPF area. It saves the administrator the time and trouble of manually configuring the default route on each router separately.

232. Refer to the exhibit. The hosts that are connected to RTRB are not able to reach hosts connected to RTRA. Based on the configuration, what could be the problem?

CCNA Exploration 2: ERouting Final Exam Answers (v4.0) 126

  • The OSPF process IDs do not match.
  • The command network 10.10.10.0 0.0.0.3 area 0 on RTRA is incorrect.
  • The command network 10.10.10.0 0.0.0.0 area 0 on RTRB is incorrect.
  • The command network 172.16.7.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 on RTRB is incorrect.
