Question 430

At a municipal utility, the infrastructure lead uses OSPF (AD 110) as the primary path to 172.23.137.0/24. A static backup via 10.121.214.1 must activate only after OSPF disappears. Which command achieves that?

  1. ip route 172.23.137.0 255.255.255.0 10.121.214.1 1
  2. ip route 172.23.137.0 255.255.255.0 10.121.214.1 5
  3. ip route 172.23.137.0 255.255.255.0 10.121.214.1 200
  4. ip route 172.23.137.0 255.255.255.0 10.121.214.1 0

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A floating static route uses higher administrative distance 200 so it stays out of the RIB while the preferred OSPF route (AD 110) is available. It can take over on failure.

Incorrect Answers

A:

AD 1 makes this static route preferred over OSPF; it would not float behind the learned route.

B:

AD 5 is still lower than OSPF 110, so the static route would normally supersede the primary.

D:

AD 0 behaves as an even more preferred route and does not supply a floating backup.

Question 431

At a nonprofit organization, the security and networking lead needs a static IPv6 route to 2001:db8:2da::/48 via IPv6 next hop 2001:db8:2da:ffff::1. Which IOS syntax represents this network route?

  1. ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:2da:ffff::1
  2. ipv6 route 2001:db8:2da::/48 2001:db8:2da:ffff::1
  3. ip route 2001:db8:2da::/48 2001:db8:2da:ffff::1
  4. ipv6 route 2001:db8:2da::/48 0.0.0.0

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

ipv6 route specifies a static IPv6 destination 2001:db8:2da::/48 and IPv6 next hop 2001:db8:2da:ffff::1. IPv6 routing must also be enabled appropriately.

Incorrect Answers

A:

::/0 defines the IPv6 default route and is broader than this single /48 destination.

C:

The IPv4 ip route parser is not used for an IPv6 prefix and IPv6 next-hop address.

D:

0.0.0.0 is an IPv4 address and cannot serve directly as an IPv6 next-hop literal.

Question 432

R1 has an IPv6 upstream connection, but clients cannot reach destinations outside local /64s. Which command directly displays the installed IPv6 default route and its next hop rather than just interface addresses?

  1. `show ip route 0.0.0.0`
  2. `show ipv6 interface brief` alone
  3. `show etherchannel summary`
  4. `show ipv6 route ::/0`

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

An IPv6 route-table query for ::/0 checks whether a default prefix is installed and identifies how the router intends to forward unmatched IPv6 traffic.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The IPv4 routing table cannot establish whether an IPv6 default exists.

B:

An IPv6 interface summary confirms interface addresses and status but does not prove that ::/0 is present in the routing table.

C:

EtherChannel summary describes link aggregation and does not inspect IPv6 default-path selection.

Question 433

At a bank branch, a network operations engineer needs an exact IPv6 host route for 2001:db8:31a::5d via an adjacent router on GigabitEthernet0/2. Which command is suitably specific?

  1. ip route 2001:db8:31a::5d 255.255.255.255 10.173.201.1
  2. ipv6 route 2001:db8:31a::5d/128 GigabitEthernet0/2 2001:db8:abcd::1
  3. ipv6 route ::/0 GigabitEthernet0/2 2001:db8:abcd::1
  4. ipv6 route 2001:db8:31a::5d/64 GigabitEthernet0/2 2001:db8:abcd::1

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A /128 IPv6 route selects exactly host 2001:db8:31a::5d rather than the broader LAN prefix. The specified egress interface and adjacent next hop determine transport.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The IPv4 route syntax and netmask cannot configure this IPv6 host address.

C:

An IPv6 default route would capture unmatched traffic globally, not only 2001:db8:31a::5d.

D:

A /64 prefix covers a full IPv6 LAN rather than only this target host, so it broadens forwarding unnecessarily.

Question 434

At a biotech lab, the migration lead is setting a Cisco routed edge to forward unmatched IPv4 traffic to ISP next hop 10.67.83.1. Which global configuration creates the required default route?

  1. `ip route 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.67.83.1.` as the global fallback route.
  2. ip route 255.255.255.255 0.0.0.0 10.67.83.1
  3. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.67.83.1
  4. ip route 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 10.67.83.1

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

This defines an IPv4 default static route /0 to next hop 10.67.83.1. It is used when more-specific installed routes do not match the destination.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The mask 255.255.255.0 does not define /0; it matches only a restricted prefix beginning at 0.0.0.0. A genuine default has a zero mask, matching every otherwise-unrouted IPv4 destination.

B:

255.255.255.255 is not the destination network ID for a /0 default route. The mask and destination are not paired correctly.

D:

This adds a host-specific mask /32 for 0.0.0.0 rather than a true catch-all /0 route.

Question 435

At a hotel, the security and networking lead requires a static route to IPv4 network 172.24.96.0/26 through adjacent router 10.4.214.1. Which IOS command configures the intended route?

  1. ip route 172.24.96.0 255.255.255.255 10.4.214.1
  2. ip route 172.24.96.0 0.0.0.0 10.4.214.1
  3. ip route 10.4.214.1 255.255.255.192 172.24.96.0
  4. ip route 172.24.96.0 255.255.255.192 10.4.214.1

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The static network route uses destination 172.24.96.0 with mask 255.255.255.192 (/26) and next hop 10.4.214.1. The route matches the intended subnet.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A /32 mask would make the route host-specific and omit most of the intended /26 range.

B:

A zero mask is a default-length /0 entry, not the specific 26-bit destination route.

C:

This reverses the destination and next-hop positions; 10.4.214.1 is a gateway, not the announced subnet.

Question 436

At a payment processor, a network administrator wants a static IPv4 path for one server 203.0.113.79, not the full /24, through 10.119.119.1. Which command meets this?

  1. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 203.0.113.79
  2. ip route 10.119.119.1 255.255.255.255 203.0.113.79
  3. ip route 203.0.113.79 255.255.255.255 10.119.119.1
  4. ip route 203.0.113.79 255.255.255.0 10.119.119.1

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A /32 host route matches exactly destination 203.0.113.79 and forwards it to next hop 10.119.119.1. This is the most specific IPv4 static route type.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A default route changes fallback forwarding for all unmatched destinations; 203.0.113.79 was required as a specific target.

B:

The destination and next-hop roles are reversed here, incorrectly routing toward 10.119.119.1 as the target host.

D:

A /24 route covers a much larger destination block and does not enforce the single-host requirement for 203.0.113.79.

Question 437

At a customer support center, the branch support lead uses OSPF (AD 110) as the primary path to 172.19.30.0/24. A static backup via 10.144.3.1 must activate only after OSPF disappears. Which command achieves that?

  1. ip route 172.19.30.0 255.255.255.0 10.144.3.1 5
  2. ip route 172.19.30.0 255.255.255.0 10.144.3.1 1
  3. ip route 172.19.30.0 255.255.255.0 10.144.3.1 0
  4. ip route 172.19.30.0 255.255.255.0 10.144.3.1 180

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

A floating static route uses higher administrative distance 180 so it stays out of the RIB while the preferred OSPF route (AD 110) is available. It can take over on failure.

Incorrect Answers

A:

AD 5 is still lower than OSPF 110, so the static route would normally supersede the primary.

B:

AD 1 makes this static route preferred over OSPF; it would not float behind the learned route.

C:

AD 0 behaves as an even more preferred route and does not supply a floating backup.

Question 438

At a satellite office, the campus network lead needs a static IPv6 route to 2001:db8:72f::/48 via IPv6 next hop 2001:db8:72f:ffff::1. Which IOS syntax represents this network route?

  1. ipv6 route 2001:db8:72f::/48 2001:db8:72f:ffff::1
  2. ipv6 route 2001:db8:72f::/48 0.0.0.0
  3. ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:72f:ffff::1
  4. ip route 2001:db8:72f::/48 2001:db8:72f:ffff::1

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

ipv6 route specifies a static IPv6 destination 2001:db8:72f::/48 and IPv6 next hop 2001:db8:72f:ffff::1. IPv6 routing must also be enabled appropriately.

Incorrect Answers

B:

0.0.0.0 is an IPv4 address and cannot serve directly as an IPv6 next-hop literal.

C:

::/0 defines the IPv6 default route and is broader than this single /48 destination.

D:

The IPv4 ip route parser is not used for an IPv6 prefix and IPv6 next-hop address.

Question 439

At a telecom operations room, the campus network lead has upstream IPv6 next hop 2001:db8:feed::1 on GigabitEthernet0/0 and needs a gateway of last resort for IPv6. Which static route is appropriate?

  1. ipv6 route ::/0 GigabitEthernet0/0 2001:db8:feed::1
  2. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 GigabitEthernet0/0
  3. ipv6 route 2001:db8:feed::/64 GigabitEthernet0/0
  4. ipv6 route ff00::/8 GigabitEthernet0/0

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

IPv6 default ::/0 permits forwarding to any unmatched IPv6 destination, and an interface plus next hop can disambiguate link-local/adjacent delivery as needed.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This defines an IPv4 default route, not an IPv6 default route.

C:

A /64 network route is specific to that destination; it does not act as an IPv6 catch-all.

D:

ff00::/8 is multicast space, not the ordinary default unicast route.

Question 440

An IPv6 prefix 2001:db8:70::/48 is learned dynamically with administrative distance 110. A static route via 2001:db8:1::5 should serve only as backup. Which command leaves the learned route preferred?

  1. `ipv6 route 2001:db8:70::/48 2001:db8:1::5 1`
  2. `ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:1::5 200`
  3. `ip route 2001:db8:70::/48 2001:db8:1::5 200`
  4. `ipv6 route 2001:db8:70::/48 2001:db8:1::5 200`

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The optional trailing AD 200 is higher than the dynamic candidate's 110, so this same-prefix static route floats behind it.

Incorrect Answers

A:

AD 1 would cause the static prefix to override the dynamic route instead of remaining a backup.

B:

A /0 route is a broad default and not the intended backup for only 2001:db8:70::/48.

C:

`ip route` is for IPv4. IPv6 static routes use the separate `ipv6 route` command.
