What is the main difference between RIP and RIPv2?
answer
RIP is a classful protocol, while RIPv2 is a classless protocol.
question
You have a private network connected to the Internet. Your routers will not share routing information about your private networkwith Internet routers. Which of the following best describes the type of routing protocol you would use?
answer
IGP
question
Which of the following protocosl has a limit of 15 hops between any two networks?
answer
RIP
question
Which of the following is a characteristic of static routing when compared to dynamic routing?
answer
All routes must be manually updated on the router.
question
A router is connected to network 192.168.1.0/24 and network 192.168.2.0/24. The router is configured to use RIP and has learned of networks 192.168.3.0/24 and 192.168.4.0/24. There is no default route configured on the router. The router receives a packet addressed to network 10.1.0.0/16. What will the router do with the packet?
answer
Drop the packet.
question
A router is connected to network 192.168.1.0/24 and network 192.168.2.0/24. The router is configure dto use RIP and has learned of networks 192.168.3.0/24 and 192.168.4.0/24. The next hop router for network 192.168.3.0 has changed. You need to make the change with the least amount of effort possible. What should you do?
answer
Wait for convergence to take place/
question
You have a network configured to use the OSPF routing protocol. Which of the following describes the state when OSPF routers have learned about all other routes in the network?
answer
Convergence.
question
Which of the following routing protocols divides the network into areas, with all networks required to have an area of 0 (area 0 identifying the backbone area)?
answer
OSPF
question
What are the main differences between the OSPF and IS-IS routing protocols?
answer
OSPF requires an area 0, while IS-IS does not.
question
A router is connected to network 192.168.1.0/24 and network 192.168.2.0/24. The router is configured to use RIP and has learned of networks 192.168.3.0/24 and 192.168.4.0/24. The router is also configured with a static route of 0.0.0.0 with a mask of 0.0.0.0. The router receives a packet addressed to network 10.1.0.0/16. What will the router do with the packet?
answer
Forward the packet to the next hop router specified by the route to network 0.0.0.0
question
Which of the following routing protocols are classified as link state routing protocols?
answer
OSPF IS-IS
question
What information does the next hop entry in the routing table indentify?
answer
The first router in the path to the destination network.
question
Which of the following are often synonymous with or made possible by CIDR?
answer
Classless VLSM
question
You have a router configured to share routing information using RIP. In addition, you have a single static route that identifies a default route for all other networks. The next hop router for the default route has changed. You need to make changes with the least amount of effort possible. What should you do?
answer
Manually configure the default route to point to the next hop router.
question
Which of the following routing protocols is used by routers on the Internet for learning and sharing routes?
answer
BGP
question
Which of the following statements about RIP is true?
answer
RIP uses hop counts as the cost metric.
question
Which of the following best describes OSPF?
answer
OSPF is a classless link-state routing protocol.
question
Which of the following routing protocols is classified as a balanced hybrid routing protocol?
answer
EIGRP
question
Under which of the following circumstances might you implement BGP on your company network and share routes with Internet routers?
answer
If the network is connected to the Internet using multiple ISPs.
question
You manage a server that uses an IP address of 192.168.255.188 with a mask of 255.255.0.0. Which of the following describes the address type?
answer
Classless.
