R1 is configured with the ip route 10.1.0.0 255.255.0.0 g0/0/0 command. What happens if the G0/0/0 interface goes down?

  • The manually configured route remains in the routing table.
  • The router polls neighbors for a replacement route.
  • The router redirects the static route to a backup interface.
  • The static route is removed from the routing table.

Explanation: When the interface associated with a static route goes down, the router will remove the route because it is no longer valid.
