- Question
Which is true regarding EIGRP successor routes?
- A successor route is used by EIGRP to forward traffic to a destination.
- Successor routes are saved in the topology table to be used if the primary route fails.
- Successor routes are flagged as "active" in the routing table.
- A successor route may be backed up by a feasible successor route.
- Successor routes are stored in the neighbor table following the discovery process.
Options- A. 1 and 3
- B. 2 and 3
- C. 1 and 4
- D. 3, 4 and 5
- Correct Answer
- 1 and 4
ExplanationSuccessor routes are the routes picked from the topology table as the best route to a remote network, so these are the routes that IP uses in the routing table to forward traffic to a remote destination. The topology table contains any route that is not as good as the successor route and is considered a feasible successor, or backup route. Remember that all routes are in the topology table, even successor routes. - 1. What are reasons for creating OSPF in a hierarchical design?

Correct Answer: 1, 2 and 3
Explanation:
OSPF is created in a hierarchical design, not a flat design like RIP. This decreases routing overhead, speeds up convergence, and confines network instability to a single area of the network.
Correct Answer: In the routing table and the topology table
Explanation:
Successor routes are going to be in the routing table since they are the best path to a remote network. However, the topology table has a link to each and every network, so the best answer is topology table and routing table. Any secondary route to a remote network is considered a feasible successor, and those routes are only found in the topology table and used as backup routes in case of primary route failure.
Correct Answer: 1 and 2
Explanation:
DR and BDR are elected on broadcast and non-broadcast multi-access networks. Frame Relay is a non-broadcast multi-access (NBMA) network by default. No DR is assigned on any type of point-to-point link. No DR/BDR is assigned on the NBMA point-to-multipoint due to the hub/spoke topology.
Correct Answer: 1 and 3
Explanation:
The Process ID for OSPF on a router is only locally significant and you can use the same number on each router, or each router can have a different number-it just doesn't matter. The numbers you can use are from 1 to 65,535. Don't get this confused with area numbers, which can be from 0 to 4.2 billion.
Correct Answer: 3, 4 and 5
Explanation:
Loopback interfaces are created on a router, and the highest IP address on a loopback (logical) interface becomes the RID of the router but has nothing to do with areas and is optional, so (1) is wrong. The numbers you can create an area with are from 0 to 4,294,967,295 option (2) is wrong. The backbone area is called area 0, so option (3) is correct. All areas must connect to area 0, so option (5) is correct. If you have only one area, it must be called area 0. This leaves option (4), which must be correct; it doesn't make much sense, but it is the best answer.
Correct Answer: Point-to-point
Explanation:
No DR is assigned on any type of point-to-point link. No DR/BDR is assigned on the NBMA point-to-multipoint due to the hub/spoke topology. DR and BDR are elected on broadcast and non-broadcast multi-access networks. Frame Relay is a non-broadcast multi-access (NBMA) network by default.
Correct Answer: show ip eigrp neighbors
Explanation:
The
show ip eigrp neighbors command allows you to check the IP addresses as well as the retransmit interval and queue counts for the neighbors that have established an adjacency.
Correct Answer: The wildcard mask is incorrect.
Explanation:
The administrator typed in the wrong wildcard mask configuration. The wildcard should have been 0.0.0.255.
Correct Answer: show ip eigrp topology
Explanation:
Any secondary route to a remote network is considered a feasible successor, and those routes are only found in the topology table and used as backup routes in case of primary route failure. You can see the topology table with the
show ip eigrp topology command.
Correct Answer: 1 and 3
Explanation:
ISL is a Cisco-proprietary frame-tagging method. IEEE 802.1Q is the nonproprietary version of frame tagging.
