A network engineer has manually configured the hello interval to 15
seconds on an interface of a router that is running OSPFv2. By
default, how will the dead interval on the interface be affected?

The dead interval will not change from the default value.

The dead interval will now be 30 seconds.

The dead interval will now be 15 seconds.

The dead interval will now be 60 seconds.*

Refer to the exhibit. An administrator is trying to configure R1 to run


OSPFv3 but the neighbor adjacency is not forming with the router
connected to Fa0/0. What is the cause of the problem?
FastEthernet0/0 has been configured as a passive interface.

No router ID has been configured.*

A link-local address has not been configured on interface FastEthernet0/0.

The OSPF process ID and area values are backwards in the interface
configuration.

Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator has configured the


OSPF timers to the values that are shown in the graphic. What is the
result of having those manually configured timers?

The R1 dead timer expires between hello packets from R2.*

The neighbor adjacency has formed.

R1 automatically adjusts its own timers to match the R2 timers.

The hello timer on R2 expires every ten seconds.


8
When OSPFv2 neighbors are establishing adjacencies, in which state
do they elect a DR and BDR router?

Two-Way state*

Loading state

Init state

Exchange state

9
Refer to the exhibit. R1 and R2 are connected to the same LAN
segment and are configured to run OSPFv3. They are not forming a
neighbor adjacency. What is the cause of the problem?

The OSPFv3 process IDs of R1 and R2 are different.

The priority value of both R1 and R2 is 1.

The timer intervals of R1 and R2 do not match.*

The IPv6 addresses of R1 and R2 are not in the same subnet.

10
Refer to the exhibit. What kind of OSPF authentication has been
configured on this interface?

null

simple

MD5*

plain text

11
Why is MD5 authentication more secure than simple authentication
for OSPF updates?

MD5 does not send the password to the neighbor router.*

MD5 requires passwords that are at least 8 characters long.

MD5 uses both a username and a password to authenticate the neighbor.

MD5 employs IPsec to keep the updates from being intercepted.


12
Which two pieces of information are used by the OSPF MD5
algorithm to generate a signature? (Choose two.)

OSPF router ID

secret key*
router hostname

interface IP address

OSPF message*

issues in an OSPFv2 network and has noted that some expected
network route entries are not displayed in the routing table. Which
two commands will provide additional information about the state of
router adjacencies, timer intervals, and the area ID? (Choose two.)

show running-configuration

show ip ospf neighbor*

show ip ospf interface*

14
Why do OSPF serial interfaces usually require manual bandwidth
configuration?

OSPF uses the bandwidth value to compute routes for its routing
table.*

All serial interfaces default to a value of 1.544 Mb/s.

Each side of an OSPF serial link should be configured with a unique value.

Bandwidth value affects the actual speed of the link.

15
A network engineer is troubleshooting an OSPFv2 network and
discovers that two routers connected by a point-to-point WAN serial
link are not establishing an adjacency. The OSPF routing process,
network commands and area ID are all confirmed as correct, and the
interfaces are not passive. Testing shows that the cabling is correct,
that the link is up, and pings between the interfaces are successful.
What is most likely the problem?

A clock rate has not been set on the DCE interface of the serial link.

The OSPFv2 process IDs on each router do not match.


A DR election has not taken place.

The subnet masks on the two connected serial interfaces do not


match.*

16

connected routers. Which two requirements to form an adjacency
need to be verified? (Choose two.)

same area.*

Verify that one of the routers is the DR or BDR and the other router a DRother.

Verify that one of the interfaces that connects the two routers is active and
the other passive.

Verify that the interfaces that connect the two routers are in the
same subnet.*

Verify that both routers are using the same OSPFv2 process ID.

17
Which command is used to verify that OSPF is enabled and also
provides a list of the networks that are being advertised by the
network?

show ip protocols*

show ip ospf interface

show ip interface brief

18
Refer to the exhibit. Four routers are connected to an Ethernet LAN
segment and are configured to run OSPFv3. However, none of the
routers are receiving routing updates. What is the cause of the
problem?

The routers are using IPv6 link local addresses to communicate.

The network type has been set to BROADCAST instead of NBMA.

The routers are using IPv4 addresses for router IDs.

All of the routers have an OSPFv3 interface priority of 0.*

19

Refer to the exhibit. These two routers are configured to run OSPFv3
but they are not forming a neighbor adjacency. What is the cause of
the problem?

The routers do not have global IPv6 addresses that are configured on the
Fa0/0 interfaces.

The routers have both been elected as the DR.

The routers are configured with the same router ID.*

The routers have the same priority.

20
A network engineer suspects that OSPFv3 routers are not forming
neighbor adjacencies because there are interface timer mismatches.
Which two commands can be issued on the interface of each OSFPv3
router to resolve all timer mismatches? (Choose two.)

no ipv6 ospf dead-interval*

no ipv6 router ospf 10

ip ospf dead-interval 40

no ipv6 ospf hello-interval*

no ipv6 ospf cost 10

ip ospf hello-interval 10

21

Automatic summarization is enabled on neighboring routers.

Automatic summarization is disabled on a per-interface basis.

Automatic summarization is disabled on R3.*

process.*

The hello timer has been modified on interface GigabitEthernet 0/1 of R3 and

The IPv4 address configured on the neighbor that is connected to R1


serial 0/1/0 is incorrect.*
The hello interval has been altered on serial 0/1/0 and is preventing a

with the ISP router over the 192.168.0.32 network. The 192.168.0.36
network link should serve as a backup when the OSPF link goes

A network engineer is troubleshooting a newly deployed wireless
network that is using the latest 802.11 standards. When users
access high bandwidth services such as streaming video, the
wireless network performance is poor. To improve performance the
network engineer decides to configure a 5 Ghz frequency band SSID
and train users to use that SSID for streaming media services. Why
might this solution improve the wireless network performance for
that type of service?

The 5 GHz band has more channels and is less crowded than the 2.4
GHz band, which makes it more suited to streaming multimedia.*
The only users that can switch to the 5 GHz band will be those with the latest
wireless NICs, which will reduce usage.
Requiring the users to switch to the 5 GHz band for streaming media is
inconvenient and will result in fewer users accessing these services.
The 5 GHz band has a greater range and is therefore likely to be interference-
free.

MAC address of the forwarding router
MAC address of the standby router
MAC addresses of both the forwarding and standby routers

Refer to the exhibit. A network technician is troubleshooting missing


OSPFv3 routes on a router. What is the cause of the problem based
on the command output?

There is a problem with the OSPFv3 adjacency between the local


router and the router that is using the neighbor ID 2.2.2.2. *
The neighbor IDs are incorrect. The interfaces must use only IPv6 addresses
to ensure fully synchronized routing databases.
The local router has formed complete neighbor adjacencies, but must be in a
2WAY state for the router databases to be fully synchronized.
The dead time must be higher than 30 for all routers to form neighbor
adjacencies.

A network engineer is troubleshooting a newly deployed wireless
network that is using the latest 802.11 standards. When users
access high bandwidth services such as streaming video, the
wireless network performance is poor. To improve performance the
network engineer decides to configure a 5 Ghz frequency band SSID
and train users to use that SSID for streaming media services. Why
might this solution improve the wireless network performance for
that type of service?
Requiring the users to switch to the 5 GHz band for streaming media is
inconvenient and will result in fewer users accessing these services.
The 5 GHz band has a greater range and is therefore likely to be
interference-free.
The 5 GHz band has more channels and is less crowded than the 2.4
GHz band, which makes it more suited to streaming multimedia. *
The only users that can switch to the 5 GHz band will be those with the
latest wireless NICs, which will reduce usage.
