A

Connectionless Network Service

59
Q

What is CLNS used for

A

In IS-IS to provide connectionless delivery of data packets between routers (OSPF uses IP)

60
Q

Why do ISPs prefer IS-IS over OSPF?

A

It can run IP and IPv6 without creating a separate database for each protocol like OSPF does.

61
Q

FHRP

A

First Hop Redundancy Protocol

62
Q

HSRP

A

Hot Standby Routing Protocol

63
Q

How can you achieve load balancing with HSRP?

A

Set up different VLANs and designating different routers as active for that VLAN

64
Q

VRRP

A

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol

65
Q

What routers are defined in an HSRP group?

A

Active router
Standby router
Virtual router
any other routers that may be connected to the subnet.

66
Q

What is the drawback with HSRP?

A

Only one router is active, the others do nothing.

67
Q

What happens if the HSRP standby router does not receive Hello packets from the active router?

A

It takes over the active router role.

68
Q

What is the makeup of the HSRP virtual MAC address:
0000.0c07.ac.0a

A

0000.0c - Vendor ID (Cisco)
07.ac - The well-known HSRP ID
0a - the HSRP group number

69
Q

What are the 4 HSRP timers?

A
  1. Hello
  2. Hold
  3. Active
  4. Standby
70
Q

What is the HSRP hello timer, and what is its default interval?

A

71
Q

Roughly what sort of time can the HSRP hello timer be set to?

A

milliseconds

72
Q

What is the HSRP hold timer, and what is the default setting? What is the recommended setting if the hello timer is changed?

A

It is the interval the standby router uses to determine whether the active router is offline. The default is 10 seconds. The recommendation is to set it 3 times the hello timer.

73
Q

What is an HSRP active timer?

A

It monitors the state of the active router, it resets each time a router in the standby group gets a hello packet from the active router.

74
Q

What is an HSRP standby timer?

A

It monitors the state of the standby router, it resets each time a router in the standby group gets a hello packet from the standby router,

Q

What are the standby routers in a VRRP group called?

A

Backup routers

79
Q

In IPv6, what is the purpose of router advertisement?

A

To send a network ID (called a prefix in IPv6) to a host, so it can generate its own IPv6 address.

91
Q

What does Teredo do essentially?

A

Encapsulates IPv6 packets inside UDPv4 datagrams

92
Q

What is a Teredo client?

A

A host with IPv4 connectivity that uses Teredo to access the IPv6 internet

93
Q

What is a Teredo server?

A

The host used for initial configuration of a Teredo

94
Q

What is a Teredo relay?

A

The remote end of a Teredo tunnel.

95
Q

What is a Teredo Host-Specific Relay?

A

A relay whose range is limited to the host it runs on.

Q

What is the multicast address that RIPng uses?

97
Q
