12
Q

A static IP route that uses a higher administrative distance than other routes, typically routes learned by a routing protocol. As a result, the router will not use the static route if the routing protocol route has been learned, but will use the static route if the routing protocol fails to learn the route

A

Q

In Cisco routers, a means for one router to choose between multiple routes to reach the same subnet when those routes are learned by different routing protocols. A measure of the “trustworthiness” of learned routes. The lower its value, the better the source of the routing information

23
Q

Command reference:

Lists a subset of the routing table

26
Q

Command reference:

Lists the routers IPv4 ARP cache

A

show ip arp

show arp

27
Q

Command reference:

Removes all dynamically learned ARP table entries, or if the command lists an IP address, removes the entry for that address only

A

clear ip arp [ip-addr]

28
Q

Which command produced the following output?

A

show ip route

29
Q

Which commands would have produced the following output?

A

show arp / show ip arp

30
Q

Consider a host attempting to send a packet to a destination on its local subnet. The host will perform two actions prior to sending that packet. What will those two actions be?

A
  1. Determine host destination MAC address (check its ARP table and ARP if necessary)
  2. Encapsulate packet in a frame with the destination MAC address of the destination host.
31
Q

Consider a host attempting to send a packet to a destination that is not on its local subnet. The host will perform two actions prior to sending that packet. What will those two actions be?

A
  1. Determine the default gateway destination MAC address (ARP table, ARP if necessary).
  2. Encapsulate the packet in a frame with the default gateway’s MAC address as the destination MAC address.
32
Q

A router has just received a frame with a packet destined for a device on another subnet. The router must now decide to foward or filter that frame. As part of the decision proces, what two actions will the router take?

A
  1. Examine the frame for errors (inspect FCS).
  2. Ensure the destination MAC address is, in fact, the router’s MAC address (or a multicast or broadcast address).

If the frame has no errors, and the destination MAC address belongs to the router, the frame will be processed. Otherwise, it will be filtered.

33
Q

A router has received a frame with a packet destined for another subnet. The router has processed the frame and de-encapsulated the packet. What is the router’s next step?

A

Examine the destination IP address of the packet, and attempt to find a suitable match for that destination in the routing table.

34
Q

A router has matched the destination IP address of an incoming packet with a suitable entry in its routing table. What information is supplied by that routing table entry?

A

The exit interface (and possibly the next-hop router) that will be used to transmit the packet toward its destination.

35
Q

A router is prepared to send a packet out a specific exit interface. What steps will the router take to accomplish this?

A
  1. If the exit interface is a LAN interface, the router must look to its ARP table (or ARP) to determine the destination’s MAC address.
  2. Encapsulate the packet in a frame appropriate for the exit interface
36
Q

A router interface was configured with the intention of creating a connected route. What conditons must be satisfied in order for the router to add this route to its routing table?

A

The interface must be in an “up/up” state, and the interface must have an assigned IP address.

37
Q

Multiple VLANs are in use within an organization. What options exist for routing between those VLANs?

A
  1. A router with a physical interface for each and every VLAN.
  2. A router with VLAN trunking enabled, connected to a trunking port on a switch (ROAS)
  3. Use of a Layer 3 switch
38
Q

Consider a design which uses a router-on-a-stick topolgy using multiple subinterfaces. What configuration possibilities are available on the router to account for the native VLAN?

A
  1. Configure an additional subinterface with an IP address and an encapsulation command noting that VLAN as native:
int g0/0.99 encapsulation dot1q 99 native IP address 10.1.99.1 255.255.255.0
  1. Configure the physical interface with an IP address, but without an encapsulation command. The router will assume the physical address is using the native VLAN.
39
Q

An expected route does not appear in the routing table. What possible conditions would cause this?

A
  1. Is the outgoing interface up/up?
  2. Is the next-hop router not reachable
  3. Does a better route with lower administrative distance exist?
40
Q

An incorrect static route appears in the routing table. What conditions could cause this?

A
  1. Is there a subnetting math error in the configuration of the route?
  2. Is the next-hop IP correct, and does it reference an IP address on the neighbor router?
  3. Is the outgoing interface correct?
