An OSPF neighbor adjacency is not formed between R3 in the main office and R5 in the Branch2 office. What is causing the problem?
A. There is an area ID mismatch.
B. There is a PPP authentication issue; a password mismatch.
C. There is an OSPF hello and dead interval mismatch.
D. There is a missing network command in the OSPF process on R5. C

A

The only difference we can see here is the line “ip ospf hello-interval 50″ on R3. This command sets the number of seconds R3 waits before sending the next hello packet out this interface. In this case after configuring this command, R3 will send hello packets to R5 every 50 seconds. But the default value of hello-interval is
10 seconds and R5 is using it. Therefore we can think of a hello interval mismatch problem here. You can verify with the “show ip ospf interface <interface>" command on each router.</interface>

Use appropriate show commands to troubleshoot the issues and answer all four questions.
An OSPF neighbor adjacency is not formed between R3 in the main office and R6 in the Branch3 office. What is causing the problem?
A. There is an area ID mismatch.
B. There is a PPP authentication issue; the username is not configured on R3 and R6.
C. There is an OSPF hello and dead interval mismatch.
D. The R3 router ID is configured on R6. D

A

We are not sure about the configuration of ppp authentication in this case. Some reports said that only one router has the “ppp authentication chap” command but it is just a trick and is not the problem here. The real problem here is R6 uses the same router-id of R3 (192.168.3.3) so OSPF neighborship cannot be established. In real life, such configuration error will be shown in the command line interface (CLI). So please check carefully for this question.

Q

You work as a network engineer for SASCOM Network Ltd company. On router HQ, a provider link has been enabled and you must configure an IPv6 default route on HQ and make sure that this route is advertised in IPv6 OSPF process. Also, you must troubleshoot another issue. The router HQ is not forming an IPv6
OSPF neighbor relationship with router BR.

Topology Details -
Two routers HQ and BR are connected via serial links.
Router HQ has interface Ethernet0/1 connected to the provider cloud and interface Ethernet0/0 connected to RA1.
Router BR has interface Ethernet0/0 connected to another router RA2.

IPv6 Routing Details -
All routers are running IPv6 OSPF routing with process ID number 100. Refer to the topology diagram for information about the OSPF areas. The Loopback 0 IPv4 access is the OSPF router ID on each router.

Configuration requirements -
✑ Configure IPv6 default route on router HQ with default gateway as 2001:DB8:B:B1B2::1
✑ Verify by pinging provider test IPv6 address 2001:DB8:0:1111::1 after configuring default route on HQ.
✑ Make sure that the default route is advertised in IPv6 OSPF on router HQ. This default route should be advertised only when HQ has a default route in its routing table.

Why is the Branch2 network 10.1 0.20.0/24 unable to communicate with the Server farm1 network 10.1 0.10.0/24 over the GRE tunnel?
A. The GRE tunnel destination is not configured on the R2 router
B. The GRE tunnel destination is not configured on the Branch2 router
C. The static route points to the tunnel0 interface that is misconfigured on the Branch2 router
D. The static route points to the tunnel0 interface that is misconfigured on the R2 router.

A

Correct Answer: C 🗳️
The Branch2 network is communicating to the Server farm, which is connected to R2, via GRE Tunnel so we should check the GRE tunnel first to see if it is in “up/ up” state with the “show ip interface brief” command on the two routers.
On Branch2:

On R2:

We see interfaces Tunnel0 at two ends are “up/up” which are good so we should check for the routing part on two routers with the “show running-config” command and pay attention to the static routing of each router. On Branch2 we see:

The destination IP address for this static route is not correct. It should be 192.168.24.1 (Tunnel0s IP address of R2), not 192.168.24.10 -> Answer C is correct.
Note: You can use the “show ip route” command to check the routing configuration on each router but if the destination is not reachable (for example: we configure
“ip route 10.10.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.24.10” on Branch2, but if 192.168.24.10 is unknown then Branch2 router will not display this routing entry in its routing table.
Note: The IP address or configuration may be different in the exam.

Q

Why has the Branch3 router lost connectivity with R1? Use only show commands to troubleshoot because usage of the debug command is restricted on the
Branch3 and R1 routers.
A. A PPP chap hostname mismatch is noticed between Branch3 and R1
B. A PPP chap password mismatch is noticed between Branch3 and R1
C. PPP encapsulation is not configured on Branch3
D. The PPP chap hostname and PPP chap password commands are missing on the Branch3 router

A

Correct Answer: A 🗳️
First we should check Branch3 (and R1) with the “show ip interface brief” command to find any Layer1/Layer2 issue.

We see interfaces connecting between them are in “up/down” states which indicates a Layer 2 issue so we should check the configuration of these interfaces carefully witch the “show running-config” command and pay attention to these interfaces.
and on Branch3:

We learn from above config is R1 is using CHAP to authenticate Branch3 router (via the “ppp authentication chap” command on R1). Branch3 router is sending
CHAP hostname “Branch_3” and CHAP password “Branch3_Secret!” to R1 to be authenticated. Therefore, we should check if R1 has already been configured with such username and password or not with the “show running-config” command on R1:

On R1 we see the configured username is “Branch3”, not “Branch_3” so the usernames here are mismatched and this is the problem -> Answer A is correct.

61
Q

Which statement about the router configurations is correct?
A. PPP PAP is authentication configured between Branch2 and R1
B. Tunnel keepalives are not configured for the tunnel0 interface on Branch2 and R2
C. The Branch 2 LAN network 192.168.11 0/24 is not advertised into the EIGRP network
D. The Branch3 LAN network 192.168.11 0/24 is not advertised into the EIGRP network
E. PPP CHAP is authentication configured between Branch1 and R1

A

Correct Answer: D 🗳️
In this question we have to check each option to see if it is correct. When we check Branch3 router we notice that “network 192.168.10.0” command is missing under “router eigrp 100” - > Answer D is correct.

62
Q

Why did Branch1 router lose WAN connectivity with R1 router?
A. The IP address is misconfigured on PPP multilink interface on the Branch1 router
B. The PPP multilink group is misconfigured on the Branch1 serial interfaces
C. The PPP multilink group is misconfigured on the R1 serial interfaces
D. The Branch1 serial interfaces are placed in a shutdown condition

A

Correct Answer: A 🗳️
This question clearly stated there is a WAN connectivity issue between R1 and Branch1 so we should check both of them with the “show ip interface brief” command. On R1:

On Branch1:

We can see that although the Multilink1 interfaces are in “up/up” state but they are not in the same subnet. According to the IP address scheme shown on the topology we can deduce the Multilink interface on Branch1 has been misconfigured, it should be 192.168.14.2 instead.

Server1 and Server2 are unable to communicate with the rest of the network. Your initial check with system administrators shows that IP address settings are correctly configured on the server side. What could be an issue?
A. The VLAN encapsulation is misconfigured on the router subinterfaces.
B. The IP address is misconfigured on the primary router interface.
C. The Router is missing subinterface configuration.
D. The Trunk is not configured on the L2SW1 switch.

A

Correct Answer: A 🗳️
Explanation -
Check the configuration of the interface that is connected to Server1 and Server2 on R2 with “show running-config” command.

We see that subinterface E0/1.100 has been configured with VLAN 200 (via “encapsulation dot1Q 200” command) while Server1 belongs to VLAN 100. Therefore this configuration is not correct. It should be “encapsulation dot1Q 100” instead. The same thing for interface E0/1.200, it should be “encapsulation dot1Q 200” instead.

A. The next hop router address for the default route is incorrectly configured.
B. Default route pointing to ISP router is configured with AD of 255.
C. Default route pointing to ISP router is not configured on Router R1.
D. Router R1 configured as DHCP client is not receiving default route via DHCP from ISP router.

A

Correct Answer: B 🗳️
When all the users cannot reach internet sites we should check on the router connecting to the ISP to see if it has a default route pointing to the ISP or not. Use the “show ip route” command on R1:

We cannot find a default route on R1 (something like this: S* 0.0.0.0/0 [1/0] via 209.165.201.2) so maybe R1 was not configured with a default route. We can check with the “show running-config” on R1:

We need a configure a default route ( “ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 209.165.201.2”) but we cannot find here so we can conclude R1 was not be configured with a default route pointing to the ISP router.

A. RIPv2 routing updates are suppressed between R2 and R3 using passive interface feature.
B. RIPv2 enabled on R3, but R3 LAN network that is not advertised into RIPv2 domain.
C. No issue that is identified; this behavior is normal since default route propagated into RIPv2 domain by Router R1.
D. RIPv2 not enabled on R3.

A

Correct Answer: D 🗳️
First we should check the routing table of R2 with the “show ip route” command.

In this table we cannot find the subnet “10.10.12.0/24” (R3 LAN network) so R2 will use the default route advertised from R1 (with the command “default- information originate” on R1) to reach unknown destination, in this case subnet 10.10.12.0/24 -> R2 will send traffic to 10.10.12.0/24 to R1.
Next we need to find out why R3 did not advertise this subnet to R2. A quick check with the “show running-config” on R3 we will see that R3 was not configured with RIP ( no “router rip” section). Therefore, we can conclude RIPv2 was not enabled on R3.

What is the correct statement below after examining the R1 routing table?
A. Traffic that is destined to 10.10.10.0/24 from the R1 LAN network uses static route instead of RIPv2, because the static route AD that is configured is less than the AD of RIPv2.
B. Traffic that is destined to 10.10.10.0/24 from the R1 LAN network uses RIPv2 instead of static route, because the static route AD that is configured is higher than the AD of RIPv2.
C. Traffic that is destined to 10.10.10.0/24 from the R1 LAN network uses static route instead of RIPv2, but the traffic is forwarded to the ISP instead of the internal network.
D. Traffic that is destined to 10.10.10.0/24 from the R1 LAN network uses RIPv2 instead of static route, because the static route AD that is configured is 255.

A

Correct Answer: B 🗳️
First use the “show ip route” command to check the R1 routing table:

As we see here, 10.10.10/24 is learned from RIP. Notice that although there is a static route on R1 to this destination (you can check with the “show running- config” on R1 to see the line “ip route 10.10.10.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.14.2 200”), this static route is not installed to the routing table because it is not the best path because the Administrative Distance (AD) of this static route is 200 while the AD of RIP is 120 so R1 chose the path with lowest AD so it chose path advertised via RIP.

Q

SIMULATION -
A corporation want to add security to its network. The requirements are:
- Host C should be able to use a web browser (HTTP) to access the Finance Web Server.
- Other types of access from host C to the Finance Web Server should be blocked.
- All access from hosts in the Core or local LAN to the Finance Web Server should be blocked.
- All hosts in the Core and on local LAN should be able to access the Public Web Server.
You have been tasked to create and apply a numbered access list to a single outbound interface. This access list can contain no more than three statements that meets these requirements.
Access to the router CLI can be gained by clicking on the appropriate host.
1. All passwords have been temporarily set to “cisco”.
2. The core connection uses an IP address of 192.168.228.65.
3. The computers in the hosts LAN been assigned addresses of 192.168.40.1 192.168.40.254.
- host A 192.168.40.1
- host B 192.168.40.2
- host C 192.168.40.3
- host D 192.168.40.4
4. The Finance Web Server has been assigned an addresses of 172.22.135.17.

A

Correct Answer: See the solution below
(you may enter “cisco” as it passwords here)

Corp1>enable -
We should create an access-list and apply it to the interface which is connected to the Server LAN because it can filter out traffic from both Sw-2 and Core networks. The Server LAN network has been assigned addresses of 172.22.242.17 172.22.242.30 so we can guess the interface connected to them has an IP address of 172.22.242.30 (.30 is the number shown in the figure). Use the “show running-config” command to check which interface has the IP address of
172.22.242.30.

Corp1#show running-config -

We learn that interface FastEthernet0/1 is the interface connected to Server LAN network. It is the interface we will apply our access-list (for outbound direction).

Corp1#configure terminal -
Our access-list needs to allow host C 192.168.33.3 to the Finance Web Server 172.22.242.23 via web (port 80)
Corp1(config)#access-list 100 permit tcp host 192.168.33.3 host 172.22.242.23 eq 80
Deny other hosts access to the Finance Web Server via web
Corp1(config)#access-list 100 deny tcp any host 172.22.242.23 eq 80

All other traffic is permitted -
Corp1(config)#access-list 100 permit ip any any
Apply this access-list to Fa0/1 interface (outbound direction)

Corp1(config)#interface fa0/1 -
Corp1(config-if)#ip access-group 100 out
Notice: We have to apply the access-list to Fa0/1 interface (not Fa0/0 interface) so that the access-list can filter traffic coming from both the LAN and the Core networks. If we apply access list to the inbound interface we can only filter traffic from the LAN network.
In the exam, just click on host C to open its web browser. In the address box type http://172.22.242.23 to check if you are allowed to access Finance Web Server via HTTP or not. If your configuration is correct then you can access it.
Click on other hosts (A, B and D) and check to make sure you cant access Finance Web Server from these hosts.

Finally, save the configuration -

Corp1(config-if)#end -
Corp1#copy running-config startup-config
(This configuration only prevents hosts from accessing Finance Web Server via web but if this server supports other traffic like FTP, SMTP then other hosts can access it, too.)
Notice: You might be asked to allow other host (A, B or D) to access the Finance Web Server so please read the requirement carefully.
Some modifications (mods):
Modification 1 (Mod 1):

Modification 2 (Mod 2):

Modification 3 (Mod 3):2 -

Modification 4 (Mod 4):

  • There are some reports about the command of “All hosts in the core and on the local LAN should be able to access the Public web server” saying that the correct command should be “access-list 100 permit ip any any”, not “access-list 100 permit ip any host (IP of Public Web Server)”. Although I believe the second command is better but maybe you should use the first command “access-list 100 permit ip any any” instead as some reports said they got 100% when using this command (even if the question gives you the IP address of Public Web Server). It is a bug in this sim.
    (Note: Dont forget to apply this access list to the suitable interface or you will lose points interface fa0/1 ip access-group 100 out
    And in the exam, they may slightly change the requirements, for example host A, host B instead of host C so make sure you read the requirement carefully and use the access-list correctly)

Q

You are a junior network engineer for a financial company, and the main office network is experiencing network issues. Troubleshoot the network issues.
Router R1 connects the main office to the Internet, and routers R2 and R3 are internal routers.
NAT is enabled on router R1.
The routing protocol that is enabled between routers R1, R2 and R3 is RIPv2.
R1 sends the default route into RIPv2 for the internal routers to forward Internet traffic to R1.
You have console access on R1, R2 and R3 devices. Use only show commands to troubleshoot the issues.
Examine the DCHP configuration between R2 and R3, R2 is configured as the DHCP server and R3 as the client. What is the reason R3 is not receiving the IP address via DHCP?
A. On R2, the network statement in the DHCP pool configuration is incorrectly configured.
B. On R3, DHCP is not enabled on the interface that is connected to R2.
C. On R2, the interface that is connected to R3 is in shutdown condition.
D. On R3, the interface that is connected to R2 is in shutdown condition.

A

Correct Answer: B 🗳️
First we should check which interface on R3 that is connected to R2 via the “show run” command.

From the description we learn interface E0/1 is connected to R2. Use the “show ip interface brief” command to verify the IP address of this interface.

Therefore we can conclude this interface does not have any IP address and there is no configuration on this interface (except the “description Link to R2” line).
If R3 wants to receive an IP address from R2 via DHCP, interface E0/1 should be configured with the command “ip address dhcp” so the answer “DHCP is not enabled on this interface” is correct.

R1 router clock is synchronized with ISP router. R2 is supposed to receive NTP updates from R1. But you observe that R2 clock is not synchronized with R1. What is the reason R2 is not receiving NTP updates from R1?
A. The IP address that is used in the NTP configuration on R2 router is incorrect.
B. The NTP server command not configured on R2 router.
C. R2 router Ethernet interface that is connected to R1 is placed in shutdown condition.
D. R1 router Ethernet interface that is connected to R2 is placed in shutdown condition.

A

Correct Answer: A 🗳️
First we should verify if the ports connected between R1 and R2 is in “up/up” state with the “show ip interface brief” command on R1 & R2.

Note: We learn R1 & R2 connect to each other via E0/2 interface because the IP addresses of these interfaces belong to 192.168.10.0/30 subnet. Both of them are “up/up” so the link connecting between R1 & R2 is good.
Next we need to verify the ntp configuration on R2 with the “show running-config” command.

So there is only one command related to NTP configuration on R2 so we need to check if the IP address of 192.168.100.1 is correct or not. But from the “show ip interface brief” command on R1 we don’t see this IP -> This IP address is not correct. It should be 192.168.10.1 (IP address of interface E0/2 of R1), not
192.168.100.1.

C. A standard ACL statement that is configured on R2 is blocking the traffic sourced from R2 network.
D. A standard ACL statement that is configured on R1 is blocking traffic sourced from R2 LAN network.

A

Correct Answer: B 🗳️
We should check if we can ping from R1 to Server 1 or not:

The ping worked well so maybe R1 is good so we should check R2 first. We notice on R2 there is an access-list:

This access-list is applied to E0/2 interface with inbound direction. The purpose of this access-list is to block traffic with source IP address of 172.16.200.0/24 so it will block all traffic sent from Server 1 to us.

D. Only static NAT transaction configured for the server, missing Dynamic NAT or Dynamic NAT overloading for Internet networks.

A

Correct Answer: B 🗳️
If all users cannot access internet, then R1 is most likely to cause the problem so we should check it first. From the “show running-config” command we will see:

We notice that interface E0/0 (connected to ISP) has been configured as “nat inside” while interfaces E0/1 & E0/2 (connected to our company) have been configured as “nat outside”. This is not correct because “nat inside” should be configured with interfaces connected to our company while “nat outside” should be configured with interfaces connected to the internet. Therefore, we can conclude the NAT configuration on these interfaces is not correct.
