Q 
1. Which of the following protocols support VLSM, summarization, and discontiguous networking? (Choose three.)
A. RIPv1
B. IGRP
C. EIGRP
D. OSPF
E. BGP
F. RIPv2
A
  1. C, D, F. RIPv1 and IGRP are true distance vector routing protocols and can’t do much, really—except build and maintain routing tables and use a lot of bandwidth! RIPv2, EIGRP, and OSPF build and maintain routing tables, but they also provide classless routing, which allows for VLSM, summarization, and discontiguous networking.

A. OSPF
B. BGP
C. RIPv2
D. IS-IS
E. EIGRP

Q
  1. Why would you want to use a dynamic routing protocol instead of using static routes?
    A. There is less overhead on the router.
    B. Dynamic routing is more secure.
    C. Dynamic routing scales to larger networks.
    D. The network runs faster.
A
  1. C. Dynamic routing is typically used in today’s networks because it scales to larger networks and takes less administrative work.

6. Which of the following is a vendor-specific routing protocol?
A. STP
B. OSPF
C. RIPv1
D. EIGRP
E. IS-IS
A
  1. D. EIGRP is called a hybrid routing protocol because it uses the characteristics of both distance vector and link state routing protocols. However, EIGRP can be run only on Cisco routers and is not vendor neutral.

Q
  1. RIP has a long convergence time and users have been complaining of response time when a router goes down and RIP has to reconverge. Which can you implement to improve convergence time on the network?
    A. Replace RIP with static routes.
    B. Update RIP to RIPv2.
    C. Update RIP to OSPF using link state.
    D. Replace RIP with BGP as an exterior gateway protocol.
A
  1. C. Static routes may be a good solution, but remember that they are not dynamic and if a piece of equipment goes down, new routes to remote networks will not automatically update, so OSPF is the best answer. It dynamically will update the routing tables with faster convergence then RIP.

Q 
8. What is the administrative distance of OSPF?
A. 90
B. 100
C. 110
D. 120
A
  1. C. The administrative distance (AD) is a very important parameter in a routing protocol. The lower the AD, the more trusted the route. If you have IGRP and OSPF running, by default IGRP routes would be placed in the routing table because IGRP has a lower AD of 100. OSPF has an AD of 110. RIPv1 and RIPv2 both have an AD of 120, and EIGRP is the lowest at 9.

9. Which of the following protocols will advertise routed IPv6 networks?
A. RIP
B. RIPng
C. OSPFv2
D. EIGRPv3
A
  1. B. The routing protocols that have been upgraded to advertise IPv6 routes are RIPng, OSPFv3, and EIGRPv6. IS-IS can advertise IPv6 routes as well, but no upgrade was needed for IS-IS.

Q
  1. What is the difference between static and dynamic routing?
    A. You use static routing in large, scalable networks.
    B. Dynamic routing is used by a DNS server.
    C. Dynamic routes are added automatically.
    D. Static routes are added automatically.
A
  1. C. Dynamic routing protocols, like RIP, EIGRP and OSPF, automatically add route updates to the routing table. Static routes must be added by hand.

Q 
11. Which routing protocol has a maximum hop count of 15?
A. RIPv1
B. IGRP
C. EIGRP
D. OSPF
A
  1. A. The distance vector protocols RIPv1 and RIPv2 both have a maximum hop count of 15 (remember, 16 is unreachable). IGRP and EIGRP have a hop count of 255, and OSPF doesn’t have a maximum hop count.

Q
  1. Which of the following describes routing convergence time?
    A. The time it takes for your VPN to connect
    B. The time required by protocols to update their forwarding tables after changes have occurred
    C. The time required for IDS to detect an attack
    D. The time required by switches to update their link status and go into forwarding state
A
  1. B. Routing convergence time happens in many protocols, for many devices, but routing convergence time is the time for all routers to update their routing tables (forwarding tables).

Q 
13. What routing protocol is typically used to connect ASs on the Internet?
A. IGRP
B. RIPv2
C. BGP
D. OSPF
A
  1. C. BGP is used to connect autonomous systems together on the Internet for its ability to make classless routing and summarization possible. These capabilities help to keep routing tables smaller and more efficient at the ISP core.

Q 
14. RIPv2 sends out its routing table every 30 seconds just like RIPv1, but it does so more efficiently. What type of transmission does RIPv2 use to accomplish this task?
A. Broadcasts
B. Multicasts
C. Telecast
D. None of the above
A
  1. B. RIPv1 sends broadcasts every 30 seconds and has an AD of 120. RIPv2 sends multicasts (224.0.0.9) every 30 seconds and also has an AD of 120. RIPv2 sends subnet-mask information with the route updates, which allows it to support classless networks and discontiguous networks. RIPv2 also supports authentication between routers; RIPv1 does not.

A. RIPv1
B. RIPv2
C. EIGRP
D. OSPF
A
  1. A, B. Both RIPv1 and RIPv2 have an AD of 120. EIGRP has an AD of 90.

Q 
16. Which of the following routing protocols uses AS-Path as one of the methods to build the routing tables?
A. OSPF
B. IS-IS
C. BGP
D. RIP
E. EIGRP
A
  1. C. Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) attributes include the IP address to get to the next AS (the next-hop attribute) as well as an indication of how the networks at the end of the path were introduced into BGP (the origin code attribute). The AS path information is useful to construct a graph of loop-free autonomous systems and is used to identify routing policies so that restrictions on routing behavior can be enforced based on the AS path.
17
Q 
17. Which IPv6 routing protocol uses UDP port 521?
A. RIPng
B. EIGRPv6
C. OSPFv3
D. IS-IS
A
  1. A. RIPng has many of the same features as RIPv2: It’s a distance vector protocol; it has a max hop count of 15; and it uses split horizon, poison reverse, and other loop-avoidance mechanisms. And it still uses multicast to send its updates too, but in IPv6, it uses FF02::9 for the transport address. For RIPv2, the multicast address was 224.0.0.9, so the address still has a 9 at the end in the new IPv6 multicast range.
18
Q 
18. What EIGRP information is held in RAM and maintained through the usage of hello and update packets? (Select all that apply.)
A. DUAL table
B. Neighbor table
C. Topology table
D. Successor route
A
  1. B, C. EIGRP holds three tables in RAM: neighbor, topology, and routing. The neighbor and topology tables are built and also maintained with the use of hello packets.
19
Q
  1. Which is true regarding EIGRP successor routes?
    A. Successor routes are saved in the neighbor table.
    B. Successor routes are stored in the DUAL table.
    C. Successor routes are used only if the primary route fails.
    D. A successor route is used by EIGRP to forward traffic to a destination.
A
  1. D. A successor route is used by EIGRP to forward traffic to a destination and is stored in the routing table. It is backed up by a feasible successor route that is stored in the topology table—if one is available. Remember that all routes are in the topology table.
20
Q 
20. Which of the following uses only hop count as a metric to find the best path to a remote network?
A. RIP
B. EIGRP
C. OSPF
D. BGP
A
  1. A. RIP and RIPv2 use only hop count as a metric, with a maximum of 15 hops, to find the best path to a remote network.
