Premium Member: You can test your knowledge with these questions first via this link (via HTML).

Question 1

Refer to the exhibit. A router reserved these five routes from different routing information sources. Which two
routes does the router install in its routing table? (Choose two)

IBGP route 10.0.0.0/30

RIP route 10.0.0.0/30
OSPF route 10.0.0.0/16
OSPF route 10.0.0.0/30
EIGRP route 10.0.0.1/32

A. RIP route 10.0.0.0/30

B. iBGP route 10.0.0.0/30
C. OSPF route 10.0.0.0/30
D. EIGRP route 10.0.0.1/32
E. OSPF route 10.0.0.0/16

Answer: C D

Explanation

In the five above routes, there are only three different routes which are 10.0.0.0/30 and 10.0.0.0/16 and
10.0.0.1/32. Since each of these routes has a different prefix length (subnet mask), they’re considered different
destinations, and they will all be installed in the routing table.

The prefix 10.0.0.0/30 was learned from three different routing protocols IBGP, RIP and OSPF so the route with
lowest AD would be chosen. The AD of IBGP is 200 and the AD of RIP is 120 so for the prefix 10.0.0.0/30,
only the OSPF route has the lowest AD (110) and it would be chosen to install into the routing table.

eigrp/8651-21.html

In fact this question should have three answers (including answer E), not sure why it only allows to choose two.

Question 2

A packet is destined for 10.10.1.22. Which static route does the router choose to forward the packet?
https://www.9tut.com/ip-routing-questions-2 1/12
11:02, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions 2

A. ip route 10.10.1.0 255.255.255.240 10.10.255.1

B. ip route 10.10.1.16 255.255.255.252 10.10.255.1
C. ip route 10.10.1.20 255.255.255.252 10.10.255.1
D. ip route 10.10.1.20 255.255.255.254 10.10.255.1

Answer: C

Explanation

The subnet 10.10.1.20/30 covers the destination 10.10.1.22 as this subnet ranges from 10.10.1.20 to 10.10.1.23
so it is the correct answer.

Question 3

11:02, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions 2

Refer to the exhibit. Router R1 is running three different routing protocols. Which route characteristic is used by
the router to forward the packet that it receives for destination IP 172.16.32.1?

A. longest prefix
B. metric
C. cost
D. administrative distance

Answer: A

Explanation

A router evaluates routes in the following order.

1. Prefix Length – The longest-matching route is preferred first. Prefix length trumps all other route attributes.
2. Administrative Distance – In the event there are multiple routes to a destination with the same prefix length,
the route learned by the protocol with the lowest administrative distance is preferred.
3. Metric – In the event there are multiple routes learned by the same protocol with same prefix length, the route
with the lowest metric is preferred. (If two or more of these routes have equal metrics, load balancing across
them may occur.)

Question 5

Router R1 must send all traffic without a matching routing-table entry to 192.168.1.1. Which configuration
accomplishes this task?

A.
R1#config t
R1(config)#ip routing
R1(config)#ip route default-route 192.168.1.1

B.
R1#config t
R1(config)#ip routing
R1(config)#ip route 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

C.
R1#config t
R1(config)#ip routing
R1(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1

D.
R1#config t
R1(config)#ip routing
R1(config)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1

Question 6

Refer to the exhibit. How does router R1 handle traffic to 192.168.12.16?

EIGRP: 192.168.12.0/24
RIP: 192.168.12.0/27
OSPF: 192.168.12.0/26

A. It selects the IS-IS route because it has the shortest prefix inclusive of the destination address
B. It selects the EIGRP route because it has the lowest administrative distance
C. It selects the OSPF route because it has the lowest cost
D. It selects the RIP route because it has the longest prefix inclusive of the destination address

Answer: D

Question 7

R1 has learned route 10.10.10.0/24 via numerous routing protocols. Which route is installed?

A. route with the lowest cost

B. route with the next hop that has the highest IP
C. route with the shortest prefix length
D. route with the lowest administrative distance

Answer: D

Question 8

What are two reasons for an engineer to configure a floating static route? (Choose two)

A. to automatically route traffic on a secondary path when the primary path goes down
B. to route traffic differently based on the source IP of the packet
C. to enable fallback static routing when the dynamic routing protocol fails
D. to support load balancing via static routing
E. to control the return path of traffic that is sent from the router

Answer: A C

Explanation

Floating static routes are static routes that have an administrative distance greater than the administrative
distance (AD) of another static route or dynamic routes. By default a static route has an AD of 1 then floating
static route must have the AD greater than 1. Floating static route has a manually configured administrative
distance greater than that of the primary route and therefore would not be in the routing table until the primary
route fails.

Question 9

Refer to the exhibit. A packet is being sent across router R1 to host 172.16.3.14. To which destination does the
router send the packet?

11:02, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions 2

A. 207.165.200.246 via Serial0/1/0

B. 207.165.200.254 via Serial0/0/0
C. 207.165.200.254 via Serial0/0/1
D. 207.165.200.250 via Serial0/0/0

Answer: C

Question 10

Refer to the exhibit. Which route type is configured to reach the internet?

R1#show ip route
Gateway of last resort is 10.10.10.18 to network 0.0.0.0

10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 4 subnets. 3 Masks

C 10.10.10.0/30 is directly connected. FastEthernet0/1
O 10.10.13.0/25 [110/4576] via 10.10.10.1, 02:53:11, FastEthernet0/1
C 10.10.10.16/30 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/24
0 10.10.13.144/28 [110/110] via 10.10.10.1, 03:51:21, FastEthernet0/1
B* 0.0.0.0/0 [20/0] via 10.10.10.18, 02:17:53

11:02, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions 2

A. host route
B. default route
C. floating static route
D. network route

Answer: B

Explanation

R1 uses the last entry (B* 0.0.0.0/0 …) to reach the Internet. The symbol * means this is a default route.

Question 11

Refer to the exhibit. Router R2 is configured with multiple routes to reach network 10 1.1 0/24 from router R1.
What protocol is chosen by router R2 to reach the destination network 10.1 1 0/24?

A. OSPF
B. static
C. EIGRP
D. eBGP

Answer: B

Explanation

The static route has the Administrative Distance of 1 so it is preferred over other popular routing protocols.

Question 12

Refer to the exhibit.

https://www.9tut.com/ip-routing-questions-2 6/12
11:02, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions 2

Which command configures a floating static route to provide a backup to the primary link?

A. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 209.165.202.131

B. ip route 209.165.201.0 255.255.255.224 209.165.202.130
C. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 209.165.200.224
D. ip route 209.165.200.224 255.255.255.224 209.165.202.129 254

Answer: D

Explanation

Floating static routes are static routes that have an administrative distance greater than the administrative
distance (AD) of another static route or dynamic routes. By default a static route has an AD of 1 then floating
static route must have the AD greater than 1. Floating static route has a manually configured administrative
distance greater than that of the primary route and therefore would not be in the routing table until the primary
route fails.

In this question, the floating static route to subnet 209.165.200.224/27 is manually assigned the AD of 254.

@Haji gu: The subnet 10.10.1.20/30 covers the destination 10.10.1.22 as this subnet ranges from
10.10.1.20 to 10.10.1.24 so it is the correct answer.

slight typo on question 2 explanation that may cause confusion

10.10.1.24 would be the subnet ID for the following subnet, so the subnet range would be 10.10.1.20 –
10.10.1.23, and NOT 10.10.1.20 – 10.10.1.24. See below..
