Q:

To enable OSPFv3, which of the following would you use?

A) Router1 (config - if) # ipv6 ospf 10 area 0.0.0.0 B) Router1 (config - if) # ipv6 router rip 1
C) Router1 (config - if) # ipv6 router eigrp 10 D) Router1 (config - if) # ospf ipv6 10 area 0
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Router1 (config - if) # ipv6 ospf 10 area 0.0.0.0

Explanation:

To enable OSPFv3, you enable the protocol at the interface level as with RIPng. The command string is ipv6 ospf proces-id area area-id.

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:

You get a call from a network administrator who tells you that he typed the following into his router:

Router (config) #router ospf 1

Router (config-router) # network 10.0.0.0. 255. 0.0.0 area 0

He tells you he still can't see any routes in the routing table. What configuration error did the administrator make?

A) The wildcard mask is incorrect B) The OSPF area is wrong
C) The OSPF Process ID is incorrect. D) The AS configuration is wrong
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) The wildcard mask is incorrect

Explanation:

The administrator typed in the wrong wildcard mask configuration. The wildcard should have been 0.0.0.255 or even 0.255.255.255.

Q:

With which network type will OSPF establish router adjacencies but not perform the DR/BDR election process?

A) Point-to-Point B) Backbone area 0
C) Broadcast multi-access D) Non-broadcast multi-access
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Point-to-Point

Explanation:

No DR is assigned on any type of point-to-point link. No DR/BDR is assigned on the NBMA point-to-multipoint due to the hub/spoke  topology. DR and BDR are elected on broadcast and non-broadcast multi-access network. Frame relay is a non-broadcast multiaccess (NBMA) network by default.

Q:

What is the administrative distance of OSPF?

A) 90 B) 100
C) 110 D) 120
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 110

Explanation:

The administrative distance (AD) is a very important parameter in a routing protocol. The lower the AD, the more trusted the route. If you have IGRP and OSPF running , by default IGRP routes would be placed in the routing table because IGRP has a lower AD of 100. OSPF has an AD of 110. RIPv1 and RIPv2 both have an AD of 120, and EIGRP is the lowest, at 90.

Q:

If routers in a single area are configured with the same priority value, what value does a router use for the OSPF Router ID in the absence of a  loopback interface?

A) The Lowest IP address of any physical interface B) The Highest IP address of any physical interface
C) The Lowest IP address of any logical interface D) The Highest IP address of any logical interface
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) The Highest IP address of any physical interface

Explanation:

At the moment of OSPF process startup, the highest IP address on any active interface will be the Router ID (RID) of the router . If you have a loopback interface configured (logical interface), then that will override the interface IP address and become the RID of the router automatically.

Q:

What are the purposes of areas in an OSPF network?

Answer

Areas allow the design of a hierarchical network. Routes can be summarized or blocked in an area to reduce the amount of routing information on internal OSPF routers.
