Q:

What multicast addresses does EIGRPv6 use?

A) FF02::A B) FF02::9
C) FF02::5 D) FF02::6
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) FF02::A

Explanation:

EIGRPv6's multicast address stayed very near the same. In IPv4 it was 224.0.0.10; now it is FF02::A (A = 10 in decimal notation)

Q:

When is redistribution required for EIGRP?

Answer

Redistribution is required when more than one EIGRP session or process is running and they are identified with different ASNs. Redistribution shares topology information between EIGRP sessions.

Q:

There are three possible routes for a router to reach a destination network. The first route is from OSPF with a metric of 782. The second route is from RIPv2 with a metric of 4. The third is from EIGRP with a composite metric of 20514560. Which route will be installed by the router in its routing table?

A) RIPv2 B) EIGRP
C) OSPF D) All three
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) EIGRP

Explanation:

Only the EIGRP routes will be placed in the routing table because it has the lowest administrative distance (AD), and that is always used before metrics.

Q:

Where are EIGRP successor routes stored?

A) In the routing table only B) In the neighbor table only
C) In the routing table and neighbor table D) In the routing table and the topology table
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) In the routing table and the topology table

Explanation:

Successor routes are going to be in the routing table since they are the best path to a remote network. However, the topology table has a link to each and every network, so the best answer is topology table and routing table. Any secondary route to a remote network is considered a feasible successor, and those routes are found only in the topology table and used as backup routes in case of primary route failure.

Q:

If your routing table has a static, a RIP, and an EIGRP route to the same network, which route will be used to route packets by default?

A) Any available route B) RIP route
C) Static route D) EIGRP route
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Static route

Explanation:

Static routes have an administrative distance of 1 by default. Unless you change this, a static route will always be used over any other dynamically learned route. EIGRP has an administrative distance of 90, and RIP has an administrative distance of 120, by default

Q:

A network administrator views the output from the show ip route command. A network that is advertised by both RIP and EIGRP appears in the routing table flagged as an EIGRP route. why is the RIP route to this network not used in the routing table?

A) EIGRP has a faster update timer B) EIGRP has a lower administrative distance
C) RIP has a higher metric for that route D) The RIP path has a routing loop
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) EIGRP has a lower administrative distance

Explanation:

RIP has an administrative distance (AD) of 120, while EIGRP has an administrative distance of 90, so the router will discard any route with a higher AD than 90 to that same network.

Q:

A router has learned three possible routes that could be used to reach a destination network. One route is from EIGRP and has a composite metric of 20684570. Another route is from OSPF with a metric of 852. The last is from RIPv2 and has a metric of 4. Which route or routes will the router install in the routing table?

A. the OSPF route
B. the EIGRP route
C. the RIPv2 route
D. all three routes
E. the OSPF and RIPv2 routes

Answer

Answer : B


Explanation :


This is one of those tricky questions just to test your knowledge of routing protocols and their administrative distance. Let’s look at the AD of popular routing protocols below:
 Routing Protocol (Source)                           AdministrativeDistance(AD)                                                             


  Directly connected                                        0


  Static Route                                                  1


  EIGRP                                                           90


  Summary Route(EIGRP)                              5


  OSPF                                                           110


  RIP                                                              120


Fom the above table, you can see that EIGRP has the lowest AD from all of the above mentioned routing protocols. So, the router will choose to use the routing protocol which has lowest Administrative Distance which in this case is B. EIGRP
