HP HPE7-A08 Practice Test 34

Question 330

A BGP neighbor is established but its expected prefix is absent. Which inspection is most useful?

  1. Redundant BGP transport design
  2. BGP session and received-route verification
  3. Underlay IP reachability prerequisite
  4. Prefix-list and route-map filtering

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Session and received-route policy evidence isolates filtering. Neighbor session and policy output reveal whether intended prefixes were accepted.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Multiple neighbors or paths improve convergence if designed with independent failure domains. But this does not address the case requirement to verify whether BGP learned and installed a route.

C:

Overlay endpoints require working routed connectivity between participating devices. But this does not address the case requirement to verify whether BGP learned and installed a route.

D:

BGP route policies selectively accept, reject or modify route advertisements. But this does not address the case requirement to verify whether BGP learned and installed a route.

Question 331

A cloud edge accidentally exports all private laboratory routes instead of approved aggregates. What BGP tool can constrain it?

  1. BGP session and received-route verification
  2. EVPN-VXLAN control/overlay separation
  3. Underlay IP reachability prerequisite
  4. Prefix-list and route-map filtering

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Prefix lists and route maps enforce advertisement policy. BGP route policies selectively accept, reject or modify route advertisements.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neighbor session and policy output reveal whether intended prefixes were accepted. But this does not address the case requirement to prevent unapproved route leakage.

B:

EVPN can advertise overlay endpoint information while VXLAN carries tenant segments over an IP underlay. But this does not address the case requirement to prevent unapproved route leakage.

C:

Overlay endpoints require working routed connectivity between participating devices. But this does not address the case requirement to prevent unapproved route leakage.

Question 332

Tunnel endpoints are configured on both fabric peers but the underlay lacks routes to their loopbacks. What blocks overlay communication?

  1. Redundant BGP transport design
  2. EVPN-VXLAN control/overlay separation
  3. Prefix-list and route-map filtering
  4. Underlay IP reachability prerequisite

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

VXLAN forwarding relies on underlay IP reachability. Overlay endpoints require working routed connectivity between participating devices.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Multiple neighbors or paths improve convergence if designed with independent failure domains. But this does not address the case requirement to route traffic between overlay endpoints.

B:

EVPN can advertise overlay endpoint information while VXLAN carries tenant segments over an IP underlay. But this does not address the case requirement to route traffic between overlay endpoints.

C:

BGP route policies selectively accept, reject or modify route advertisements. But this does not address the case requirement to route traffic between overlay endpoints.

Question 333

After a restrictive inbound route map was deployed, a BGP neighbor remains Established but its approved 10.6.4.0/24 prefix disappears while other prefixes remain. Which control should be inspected first?

  1. BGP session and received-route verification
  2. Underlay IP reachability prerequisite
  3. EVPN-VXLAN control/overlay separation
  4. Prefix-list and route-map filtering

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Inspect the new prefix-list and route-map entries for an unintended deny of 10.6.4.0/24. BGP route policies selectively accept, reject or modify route advertisements.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neighbor session and policy output reveal whether intended prefixes were accepted. But this does not address the case requirement to resolve a targeted BGP route-policy rejection.

B:

Overlay endpoints require working routed connectivity between participating devices. But this does not address the case requirement to resolve a targeted BGP route-policy rejection.

C:

EVPN can advertise overlay endpoint information while VXLAN carries tenant segments over an IP underlay. But this does not address the case requirement to resolve a targeted BGP route-policy rejection.

Question 334

Clients on VLAN 44 have no local DHCP server and broadcasts must reach a central subnet. What gateway function is needed?

  1. DNS resolver and default gateway option
  2. DHCP relay helper configuration
  3. DHCP scope and gateway accuracy
  4. DHCP relay counters and reachability

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

DHCP relay forwards broadcast requests across routed boundaries. A VLAN gateway can forward client DHCP broadcasts to a remote configured DHCP server.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Valid DHCP options must provide a reachable gateway and useful name resolution. But this does not address the case requirement to reach a remote DHCP service from a client VLAN.

C:

The server must allocate addresses and option values appropriate to the requesting subnet. But this does not address the case requirement to reach a remote DHCP service from a client VLAN.

D:

Relay forwarding state and server reachability identify which step loses a request. But this does not address the case requirement to reach a remote DHCP service from a client VLAN.

Question 335

Clients receive valid IPs but a default gateway in another unrelated subnet. Which configuration is wrong?

  1. Inter-VRF service policy
  2. DHCP relay helper configuration
  3. DNS resolver and default gateway option
  4. DHCP scope and gateway accuracy

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

DHCP scope options must match the client's network. The server must allocate addresses and option values appropriate to the requesting subnet.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Traffic between VRFs requires supported route leaking or a deliberate service and security boundary. But this does not address the case requirement to distribute the correct subnet gateway.

B:

A VLAN gateway can forward client DHCP broadcasts to a remote configured DHCP server. But this does not address the case requirement to distribute the correct subnet gateway.

C:

Valid DHCP options must provide a reachable gateway and useful name resolution. But this does not address the case requirement to distribute the correct subnet gateway.

Question 336

A tenant must retain a separate routing table despite reusing some private network ranges. What construct helps?

  1. VRF route-table isolation
  2. DNS resolver and default gateway option
  3. DHCP relay helper configuration
  4. DHCP scope and gateway accuracy

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

VRFs isolate route tables and forwarding contexts. A VRF creates separate routing context for networks requiring controlled separation.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Valid DHCP options must provide a reachable gateway and useful name resolution. But this does not address the case requirement to maintain tenant routing separation.

C:

A VLAN gateway can forward client DHCP broadcasts to a remote configured DHCP server. But this does not address the case requirement to maintain tenant routing separation.

D:

The server must allocate addresses and option values appropriate to the requesting subnet. But this does not address the case requirement to maintain tenant routing separation.

Question 337

Two VRFs must exchange only specific approved service traffic. What design decision controls it?

  1. Inter-VRF service policy
  2. DNS resolver and default gateway option
  3. VRF route-table isolation
  4. DHCP scope and gateway accuracy

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Inter-VRF exchange needs deliberate routing and access policy. Traffic between VRFs requires supported route leaking or a deliberate service and security boundary.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Valid DHCP options must provide a reachable gateway and useful name resolution. But this does not address the case requirement to allow narrow traffic across VRF boundaries.

C:

A VRF creates separate routing context for networks requiring controlled separation. But this does not address the case requirement to allow narrow traffic across VRF boundaries.

D:

The server must allocate addresses and option values appropriate to the requesting subnet. But this does not address the case requirement to allow narrow traffic across VRF boundaries.

Question 338

Relay is configured but DHCP Discover counts increase while no responses return. What should the engineer check?

  1. DNS resolver and default gateway option
  2. VRF route-table isolation
  3. Inter-VRF service policy
  4. DHCP relay counters and reachability

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Relay state plus server-side reachability localizes failures. Relay forwarding state and server reachability identify which step loses a request.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Valid DHCP options must provide a reachable gateway and useful name resolution. But this does not address the case requirement to diagnose an incomplete DHCP exchange.

B:

A VRF creates separate routing context for networks requiring controlled separation. But this does not address the case requirement to diagnose an incomplete DHCP exchange.

C:

Traffic between VRFs requires supported route leaking or a deliberate service and security boundary. But this does not address the case requirement to diagnose an incomplete DHCP exchange.

Question 339

Laptop users receive addresses but cannot resolve internal hostnames. Which DHCP-provided setting matters?

  1. DHCP relay helper configuration
  2. Inter-VRF service policy
  3. DNS resolver and default gateway option
  4. DHCP relay counters and reachability

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Correct DNS resolver options are required for name lookups. Valid DHCP options must provide a reachable gateway and useful name resolution.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A VLAN gateway can forward client DHCP broadcasts to a remote configured DHCP server. But this does not address the case requirement to supply usable DNS service to clients.

B:

Traffic between VRFs requires supported route leaking or a deliberate service and security boundary. But this does not address the case requirement to supply usable DNS service to clients.

D:

Relay forwarding state and server reachability identify which step loses a request. But this does not address the case requirement to supply usable DNS service to clients.

Question 340

A newly routed office VLAN cannot obtain addresses from the datacenter DHCP server. What SVI function should be reviewed?

  1. DHCP scope and gateway accuracy
  2. DHCP relay helper configuration
  3. DNS resolver and default gateway option
  4. DHCP relay counters and reachability

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The relay helper is required when the server is off-subnet. A VLAN gateway can forward client DHCP broadcasts to a remote configured DHCP server.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The server must allocate addresses and option values appropriate to the requesting subnet. But this does not address the case requirement to forward DHCP discovery to the server.

C:

Valid DHCP options must provide a reachable gateway and useful name resolution. But this does not address the case requirement to forward DHCP discovery to the server.

D:

Relay forwarding state and server reachability identify which step loses a request. But this does not address the case requirement to forward DHCP discovery to the server.
