Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 45

Question 440

A router interface directly owns 10.10.10.0/24 and IOS installs its connected AD 0 route. Why should an engineer avoid relying on an additional higher-distance static duplicate of that same directly connected subnet?

  1. Prefer the duplicate static over the connected prefix merely because static routes are manually configured
  2. Assume the duplicate static will load-balance with a connected route regardless of different AD
  3. Delete the connected interface route while preserving its operational addressing
  4. Do not rely on a higher-distance static duplicate of the connected subnet

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Connected routes normally have AD 0 and are chosen while the interface is up.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Directly connected AD 0 is normally more preferred than static AD 1 or greater for the same prefix.

B:

Installed next-hop load balancing does not automatically combine two different preference sources for the same destination.

C:

A connected route exists by virtue of interface operational/address state and is not removed by a normal no ip route.

Question 441

A dual-stack router has IPv6 connectivity to next hop 2001:db8:1::2. All otherwise-unmatched IPv6 destinations must use that router. Which IOS IPv6 static command creates ::/0?

  1. Use ipv6 route 2001:db8:1::/64 2001:db8:1::2
  2. ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:1::2
  3. Use ip route ::/0 2001:db8:1::2
  4. Use ipv6 route ::/128 2001:db8:1::2

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

An IPv6 ::/0 static route covers destinations lacking a more-specific IPv6 match.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The route specifies only a particular /64; it does not cover all otherwise-unmatched IPv6 destinations.

C:

ip route is the IPv4 command and does not accept an IPv6 destination or next hop.

D:

A /128 matches a single all-zero IPv6 host, not the desired IPv6 default /0.

Question 442

R2 must send packets to remote IPv6 prefix 2001:db8:50::/64 through a neighbor whose only usable next-hop address is fe80::2 on local GigabitEthernet0/0. Which fully specified IPv6 static route identifies the required link scope?

  1. ipv6 route 2001:db8:50::/64 GigabitEthernet0/0 fe80::2
  2. ipv6 route 2001:db8:50::/64 fe80::2
  3. ipv6 route ::/0 fe80::2
  4. ipv6 address 2001:db8:50::1/64

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A link-local next hop is scoped to its local interface, so the interface plus fe80::2 identifies the peer correctly for this /64 route.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A bare link-local address does not identify which link owns fe80::2; it is insufficient for the stated scoped next-hop routing task.

C:

This supplies a default destination instead of 2001:db8:50::/64 and omits the output link required for a link-local next hop.

D:

The ipv6 address command assigns an interface address; it is not a global static route to the remote prefix.

Question 443

An IOS router summarizes internal IPv6 /64s under 2001:db8:60::/48. It should discard unmatched destinations in that /48 locally while allowing more-specific connected /64s to continue forwarding. Which static route provides the discard summary?

  1. ipv6 route 2001:db8:60::/48 Null0
  2. ipv6 route ::/0 Null0
  3. ipv6 route 2001:db8:60::/64 Null0
  4. ipv6 address 2001:db8:60::/48

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The /48 Null0 route provides the aggregate discard safety net, while installed /64s win by longest-prefix matching.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A Null0 default would discard unmatched destinations across all IPv6 space instead of the requested aggregate only.

C:

A /64 discard covers only one portion of the /48 and does not create the intended summary over all contained /64s.

D:

An interface address assignment is not a static discard route and does not install an aggregate route via Null0.

Question 444

A Cisco IOS XE router has `ipv6 route 2001:db8:70::/48 2001:db8:70::2`. The only route that could resolve 2001:db8:70::2 is the very same /48 static route through recursion. What happens to this self-recursive route?

  1. It is not installed as a valid active static route because resolution would loop back through itself
  2. It is automatically converted to a directly connected /48 route
  3. It is installed with administrative distance zero because it is static
  4. It is translated into an IPv4 default route for recursive fallback

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Cisco requires static next-hop recursion to end at a valid output interface without depending on the same route; self-recursive paths are invalid.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Recursive IPv6 route configuration does not convert an unreachable remote prefix into a directly connected IPv6 network.

C:

Default static administrative distance is normally one, and a self-recursive route is not made valid by an altered distance.

D:

IPv6 recursive route validity has no automatic IPv4 default-route conversion; this next hop must have independent valid resolution.

Question 445

An IOS XE router currently learns 2001:db8:80::/64 through OSPFv3 at administrative distance 110. Its independent next hop 2001:db8:1::2 is reachable, and the operator wants a static backup for only that /64 that installs if the OSPFv3 route disappears. Which static command satisfies this floating-route design?

  1. ipv6 route 2001:db8:80::/64 2001:db8:1::2 200
  2. ipv6 route 2001:db8:80::/64 2001:db8:1::2 1
  3. ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:1::2 200
  4. ipv6 route 2001:db8:80::/64 Null0 200

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The trailing administrative distance 200 makes this same-prefix static route less preferred than the valid OSPFv3 route at 110. If OSPF withdraws, the static path can become active with an independently resolvable next hop.

Incorrect Answers

B:

AD 1 is more preferred than OSPFv3 AD 110 for the same /64, so this route would displace the dynamic primary rather than remain floating.

C:

The ::/0 prefix is a default route for unmatched IPv6 destinations and does not provide the requested exact backup to 2001:db8:80::/64.

D:

Null0 is a discard next hop. It could blackhole traffic for the prefix on failover rather than send it to the specified reachable provider router.

Question 446

An IPv6 static route points to an upstream link-local next hop fe80::d on a multiaccess Ethernet segment. Two interfaces have neighbors with the same link-local address. What must the configuration specify to choose the intended neighbor?

  1. The exact outgoing interface together with the fe80::d next hop
  2. Only the fe80::d address with no egress interface
  3. Only the destination prefix and a higher administrative distance
  4. A DNS AAAA record that resolves fe80::d to a global address

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Link-local IPv6 addresses are not unique across links; identifying an outgoing interface disambiguates the local-link next-hop scope.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The identical link-local value may exist on more than one interface, so the next-hop address alone leaves scope ambiguous.

C:

Administrative distance affects candidate preference, not the required scope resolution of an IPv6 next-hop address.

D:

DNS records are unrelated to the static routing syntax for a local-link neighbor, and do not resolve an interface scope.

Question 447

An operator wants to list only installed IPv6 static routes, excluding connected, OSPFv3, and RIPng routes. Which IOS XE operational command best meets that filtered request?

  1. show ipv6 route static
  2. show ipv6 interface brief
  3. show ip route static
  4. show ipv6 neighbors

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The static protocol filter on show ipv6 route returns the IPv6 routes currently installed as static routes.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The interface brief command shows IPv6 interface addressing and status, not the active static-only routing table.

C:

The ip route command displays IPv4 static routes, not the IPv6 routes specified in the request.

D:

IPv6 neighbors lists link-local and other neighbor cache entries, not route installation by protocol source.

Question 448

A Cisco IOS XE router has an IPv6-addressed interface and an intended static route to 2001:db8:60::/64, but the device is not forwarding IPv6 traffic between its interfaces. Which mandatory global feature must be enabled first?

  1. ipv6 unicast-routing
  2. ipv6 nd managed-config-flag
  3. ipv6 route ::/0 Null0
  4. ip routing 2001:db8:60::/64

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The global `ipv6 unicast-routing` command enables IPv6 packet forwarding on the router, a documented prerequisite for IPv6 static routing.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The ND managed flag influences host DHCPv6 behavior in router advertisements; it does not enable the router to forward IPv6 packets.

C:

A Null0 default would discard otherwise unmatched IPv6 traffic and is not the global routing capability prerequisite.

D:

The IPv4 ip routing command is not a valid route statement with an IPv6 prefix, nor the required IPv6 forwarding enablement.

Question 449

An engineer configured a host-specific IPv6 static route to 2001:db8:9::99/128 and needs to verify that precise host prefix is installed, not just a containing /64. Which route-table evidence is needed?

  1. Read the /64 connected route and assume it proves a separately configured /128 exists
  2. Read show ipv6 interface brief only
  3. Look for a /128 entry in show ipv6 route
  4. Check only a ping response to 2001:db8:9::99

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

An IPv6 /128 is a route to a single exact destination.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A covering /64 prefix is distinct from an exact host route to 2001:db8:9::99/128.

B:

Address/interface state does not demonstrate the installed static /128 host-prefix route.

D:

Reachability can arise through a broader route; it does not prove that the explicit /128 route is installed.

Question 450

After removing the remote IPv6 service 2001:db8:90::/64, a router must delete only its configuration `ipv6 route 2001:db8:90::/64 2001:db8:1::2`. Which command performs the exact deletion?

  1. no ipv6 route 2001:db8:90::/64 2001:db8:1::2
  2. clear ipv6 route *
  3. no ipv6 unicast-routing
  4. no ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:1::2

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The no form with the original remote prefix and next hop removes just that route definition from running configuration.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Clearing routing state does not remove the specifically configured static route and can disrupt other learned entries.

C:

Disabling IPv6 routing affects the entire device and is unnecessary to remove a single obsolete static entry.

D:

Deleting a default route is a different operation and would leave the obsolete /64 configured.
