Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 46

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.

Question 451

An IPv6 router cannot reach remote 2001:db8:100::/56 and no OSPFv3 is enabled; a valid reachable next hop is available. Which static route action should target *that exact /56* rather than ::/0 or one /64?

  1. Configure ipv6 route 2001:db8:100::/56 with valid next hop
  2. Use ipv6 route ::/0 via the same next hop as a substitute
  3. Use ipv6 route 2001:db8:100::/64 via the next hop
  4. Use ipv6 route 2001:db8:100::/48 via the next hop

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A static IPv6 route can target a site prefix without enabling a dynamic protocol.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A default route is much broader and would affect unrelated IPv6 destinations, not the required /56 only.

C:

A /64 covers only one portion of the /56 and omits the other /64 networks in the intended block.

D:

A /48 includes many destinations outside the requested /56 and is not the exact remote prefix.

Question 452

A Cisco IOS XE release does not permit a recursive static IPv6 next hop to be resolved through the installed ::/0 route by default. An operator explicitly needs the documented legacy default-route recursion behavior. Which global command enables it?

  1. ipv6 route static resolve default
  2. ipv6 nd ra suppress all
  3. ipv6 route ::/0 Null0
  4. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Null0

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Cisco documents `ipv6 route static resolve default` as the control to allow recursive static IPv6 next hops to resolve using ::/0 when that legacy behavior is deliberately required.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Suppressing router advertisements affects IPv6 host discovery and does not change route-recursion through ::/0.

C:

Installing a Null0 default blackholes unknown IPv6 destinations; it does not enable the recursive next-hop lookup behavior.

D:

The IPv4 default route changes only the IPv4 RIB, not how a recursive IPv6 static route resolves through an IPv6 default.

Question 453

The router currently forwards 2001:db8:50::/64 through ISP A. A maintenance exception requires only host 2001:db8:50::99 to use reachable ISP B next hop 2001:db8:2::2, leaving other hosts on ISP A. What most-specific route should be added?

  1. ipv6 route 2001:db8:50::99/128 2001:db8:2::2
  2. ipv6 route 2001:db8:50::/64 2001:db8:2::2
  3. ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:2::2
  4. ipv6 route 2001:db8:50::99/64 2001:db8:2::2

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A /128 route matches only the one named IPv6 host; longest-prefix matching directs it over ISP B while retaining /64 forwarding for others.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Replacing or competing for the entire /64 would affect all hosts in that subnet, contrary to the single-host exception.

C:

A /0 default changes forwarding for otherwise unmatched IPv6 destinations and is not scoped to this host.

D:

The prefix /64 applied to a non-network host address does not represent a host-specific IPv6 route; /128 is needed.

Question 454

An IPv6 static route to 2001:db8:90::/64 uses next hop fe80::a on GigabitEthernet0/0. The route is configured, but the engineer needs to check whether Neighbor Discovery has an L2 mapping for that scoped peer. Which IOS output is the relevant next check?

  1. show ipv6 neighbors GigabitEthernet0/0
  2. show ip arp GigabitEthernet0/0
  3. show running-config | include ^ip route
  4. show spanning-tree vlan 1

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The IPv6 neighbor cache reports ND reachability and link-layer address information for peers on the selected IPv6 interface, including scoped fe80 neighbors.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The IPv4 ARP table serves IPv4 neighbors, not the ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery resolution required for fe80::a.

C:

An IPv4 static route configuration filter will not reveal IPv6 neighbor-cache reachability or the scoped peer link-layer mapping.

D:

Spanning Tree status shows Layer 2 topology roles, not the IPv6 neighbor binding for a specific link-local next hop.

Question 455

OSPFv3 has a preferred 2001:db8:200::/64 with AD 110. The engineer wants a static IPv6 route for the **same /64** as a standby only. How should its administrative distance be set?

  1. Configure the static IPv6 route with an AD higher than 110 but lower than 255
  2. Assign the IPv6 static an AD 1 and expect OSPF AD 110 to stay primary
  3. Use AD 110 equal to OSPF and assume guaranteed passive standby behavior
  4. Use AD 255 and expect it to install when OSPF fails

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

For an identical prefix, a valid higher AD (for example 200) keeps the static inactive while OSPF AD 110 is installed and allows it to become eligible when the primary is removed and next-hop resolution works.

Incorrect Answers

B:

With both eligible for the same /64, the lower AD 1 static would displace the OSPF primary.

C:

Equal preference does not provide a deliberate higher-distance floating backup hierarchy.

D:

On Cisco, AD 255 is not eligible for route installation, so it cannot be used as a functioning backup.

Question 456

A Cisco IOS router has a configured static IPv4 route to 10.10.0.0/16 with administrative distance 255. Its next hop is otherwise reachable. What should the administrator expect from this route in the normal IPv4 routing table?

  1. It is not installed because administrative distance 255 means the source is treated as unusable
  2. It is installed with the same preference as a directly connected route
  3. It wins over an OSPF route at administrative distance 110 because 255 is larger
  4. It is installed as an automatic default route to 0.0.0.0/0

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Cisco administrative distance 255 is treated as an unreliable route source, so the route is not installed in the IPv4 RIB despite next-hop reachability.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Connected routes normally have administrative distance zero, and 255 does not give static routes the preference of connected routes.

C:

When comparing same-prefix eligible routes, smaller AD is preferred; 255 is not eligible rather than a better preference.

D:

Specifying a /16 static route does not turn it into the IPv4 default prefix; a /0 route is separately required for a default.

Question 457

A router advertises the aggregate 10.88.0.0/16 while more-specific connected and learned routes serve actual customer networks inside it. To prevent traffic for nonexistent /16 subnets from looping outward, which aggregate safety route can be configured with a less specific match than the real routes?

  1. ip route 10.88.0.0 255.255.0.0 Null0
  2. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Null0
  3. ip route 10.88.0.0 255.255.255.0 Null0
  4. ip route 10.88.0.0 255.255.0.0 GigabitEthernet0/0

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A /16 static Null0 discard catches unallocated destinations in the aggregate, while installed longer-prefix routes forward valid subnets ahead of it.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A Null0 default applies to every otherwise unmatched IPv4 destination, far outside the requested customer aggregate.

C:

A /24 discard covers just 10.88.0.0/24 and leaves many unallocated /16 destinations without the intended discard safety net.

D:

An Ethernet interface-only route forwards toward the link and may trigger ARP rather than deliberately discard unknown aggregate destinations.

Question 458

A CE router has a default route to ISP A. It must instead route exactly the customer subnet 10.60.8.0/21 via ISP B next hop 192.0.2.5, without covering adjacent 10.60.16.0/21. Which IPv4 static route is the narrowest correct match?

  1. ip route 10.60.8.0 255.255.248.0 192.0.2.5
  2. ip route 10.60.8.0 255.255.240.0 192.0.2.5
  3. ip route 10.60.8.0 255.255.255.0 192.0.2.5
  4. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.0.2.5

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A /21 mask (255.255.248.0) covers the aligned third octets 8 through 15 and does not include adjacent 16 through 23.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The /20 mask is too broad for this allocation, and 10.60.8.0 is not an aligned /20 prefix boundary.

C:

A /24 includes only third-octet 8 and fails to cover the remainder of the specified /21 subnet.

D:

A default route is not limited to the customer subnet and would alter unrelated Internet forwarding.

Question 459

An IPv6 static route is configured but not installed because the next-hop cannot be resolved by any legitimate connected or recursive path. Which verification addresses the actual cause instead of changing an unrelated ACL?

  1. Change a security ACL that has no relation to the static next-hop recursion failure
  2. Lower the static route administrative distance without checking whether its next hop can resolve
  3. Add a more general default route to mask the failed next hop without validating reachability
  4. Confirm next-hop reachability and route recursion

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Static forwarding still depends on a valid resolved egress adjacency.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Traffic filtering and the route’s eligibility to install are different stages; the indicated failure is unresolved next-hop reachability.

B:

AD only ranks eligible sources; a route whose next hop cannot be resolved still cannot install correctly.

C:

A fallback prefix may change forwarding but does not diagnose the configured route’s recursion failure.

Question 460

A router has a primary route to 10.40.0.0/16 and a separate static backup via ISP B; the backup must become inactive again when the primary recovers. Which relative distance arrangement ensures this preference?

  1. Give the backup static a lower AD than the primary dynamic source
  2. Make the two same-prefix routes the same AD and assume automatic preferred restoration
  3. Configure the fallback with higher AD than primary
  4. Give the backup route AD 255 so it always installs last

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The primary source automatically wins same-prefix selection when available.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The static would win while both are available, contrary to remaining inactive when the primary recovers.

B:

Equal AD does not establish an unambiguous primary/standby preference.

D:

AD 255 is not an eligible installed route and cannot provide the intended failover.
