Question 1

Which of the following is a valid alternative representation of the IPv6 address

2001:0da8:0000:0000:0024:0000:4ab9:0300?



Answer : A

In IPv6, consecutive sections of zeros can be abbreviated with a double colon (::) once in an address. Also, leading zeros in each hextet (group of four hexadecimal digits) can be removed.

The original address is 2001:0da8:0000:0000:0024:0000:4ab9:0300.

Removing leading zeros and applying the abbreviation:


Question 2

Which of the following is NOT a required configuration step to successfully run IS-IS on a router?



Answer : C

While configuring a reference bandwidth (which is used to calculate link costs) can be useful, it is not strictly required for IS-IS to run. IS-IS uses default bandwidth values to calculate costs, and it can function without explicitly configuring a reference bandwidth.


Question 3

Refer to the exhibit.

In the diagram, all routers are using IS-IS as their routing protocol. The number next to each link is its metric value.

What path will traffic follow from router R6 to router R3, and from router R3 to router R6?



Answer : A

The metric values between the routers dictate the routing paths, and IS-IS will calculate the shortest path based on these values.

R6 to R3: The path from R6 to R3 will go through R5 and R2, as this route has the least cumulative metric (10 + 10 + 15 = 35).

R3 to R6: The reverse path from R3 to R6 will follow R3 R2 R5 R6 because this route is also the shortest with a total metric of 10 + 10 + 10 = 30.


Question 4

Which of the following statements about router interfaces on a Nokia 7750 SR is FALSE?



Answer : A

Typically, interfaces on a Nokia 7750 SR router are not configured in pairs on the same subnet for redundancy. Instead, redundancy is achieved through mechanisms like Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) or other high availability protocols, not by simply using interfaces in pairs on the same subnet.


Question 5

Which of the following statements about the IP forwarding process on a router is TRUE?



Answer : B

During the IP forwarding process, routers use the routing table to determine the next hop based on the destination IP address. The source IP address is not directly involved in the lookup process for forwarding.

The ARP table is used to map IP addresses to MAC addresses, specifically for resolving the MAC address of the next hop (destination MAC address) for forwarding packets within the local network.


Question 6

Consider the exhibit.

All routers are running IS-IS with IPv6 support enabled. Based on the topology shown, and the route tables of routers R3 and R4, which of the following statements is TRUE?



Answer : D

Based on the IPv6 route table output for R3 and R4, we can see that the routers have remote routes listed as 'Remote ISIS', indicating that the route is being advertised from a different area (area 49.01 or 49.02). This is a sign of route leaking, where routes from one area are being shared across areas.

The routes from R3 (level-1 router) are being advertised to R4 (level-1 router), and vice versa, with ISIS as the protocol. This implies that there is route leaking configured to allow information to pass between areas.


Question 7

Refer to the exhibit.

Routers R1 through R4 in the diagram have established IS-IS adjacencies. Router R1 is L1/L2 and is the DIS of its two broadcast interfaces. How many LSPs will it generate?



Answer : B

Router R1 is configured as L1/L2, meaning it is part of both Level 1 and Level 2 IS-IS routing areas. This means R1 will generate two types of LSPs:

Level 1 LSP (for the local area 49.0001) to advertise its local topology to other Level 1 routers.

Level 2 LSP (for the backbone area 49.0002) to advertise the global network topology to Level 2 routers.

R1 also has two broadcast interfaces, and as the Designated Intermediate System (DIS) on these interfaces, it will generate an LSP for each interface (one per broadcast link).

This results in three total LSPs:

A Level 1 LSP for the local area (49.0001).

A Level 2 LSP for the backbone area (49.0002).

An LSP for each of the two broadcast interfaces, which may include interface-related topology information.
