17
Q

What command allows you to view the entire BGP table?

A

show ip bgp

18
Q

What symbol does the router use to show the best path towards the destination if alternative paths exist?

A

>

19
Q

When BGP runs between two peers in the same AS, what is it referred to as?

A

IBGP

20
Q

What command can you use to know the hold time on the two BGP peers?

A

show ip bgp neighbors

21
Q

What does a next hop of 0.0.0.0 mean in the show ip bgp command output?

A

The network is locally originated via the network command in BGP

22
Q

Because BGP does not use a neighbor discovery process like many other routing protocols, it is essential that every peer is manually configured and reachable through what protocol and port number?

A

TCP port 179

23
Q

Once a peer has been configured with the “neighbor remote-as” command, the local BGP speaker will attempt to transmit an _____ message to the remote peer.

A

OPEN

24
Q

If the OPEN message is not blocked by existing firewall rules or other security mechanisms, the remote peer will respond with a _____ message and will continue to periodically exchange these messages with the local peer.

A

KEEPALIVE

25
Q

A BGP speaker will consider a peer dead if what kind of messages are not received within a period of time specified by a hold timer?

A

KEEPALIVE

26
Q

What type of messages are used by BGP to exchange routing information between peers?

A

UPDATE

27
Q

What kind of routes do UPDATE messages contain?

A

advertised and withdrawn

28
Q

_____ routes are those which are no longer considered feasible.

A

Withdrawn

29
Q

What command allows you to view statistics regarding the number of BGP messages, such as UPDATE messages, in the output?

A

show ip bgp neighbors

30
Q

Router 1 has an AS number of 101. In the output of the “show ip bgp summary” command, the peer lists an AS number of 201. What does this signify in regards to what protocol is being used?

A

eBGP Different AS numbers = eBGP peers

31
Q

Which two components are used to identify a neighbor in a BGP configuration?

  • autonomous system number
  • version number
  • router ID
  • subnet mask
  • IP address
A

autonomous system number

IP address
