A

Default Route

62
Q

This is defined as a network that is not listed in the router’s routing table.

A

Non routable

63

This is a network layer protocol that exchanges information packets with other internetwork routers in order to build and maintain a routing table

A

Routing protocol

64
Q

This is the most common routing metric

A

Path length

65
Q

This is another routing metric but refers to the dependability of each network link

A

Reliability

66
Q

This refers to the length of time required to move a packet from source to destination through the internetwork.

A

Delay

67
Q

This refers to the available traffic capacity of a link

A

Bandwidth

68
Q

This refers to the degree to which a network resource, such as a router,is busy

Algorithms

70
Q

This type of algorithm supports multiple paths to the same destination by load balancing or load sharing

A

A

Intramural-Domain algorithm

75
Q

This algorithm is used between autonomous systems and is used with exterior gateway protocols

A

Inter-domain algorithms

76
Q

This algorithm calls for each router to send all of its routing table, but only to neighbors by way of Limited broadcast -255.2.55.255.255 that routers are designed not to pass

A

Distance vector

77
Q

Is distance vector classful or classless ?

A

Classful

78
