CCNP ROUTE Practice Exam:

General Routing

Here's the first in a series of new CCNP ROUTE practice exams!

You'll find the answers at the bottom of the page!

When you're done here, visit my CCNP ROUTE Tutorial And Video Page and my YouTube Cisco Certification Channel for plenty of additional help in nailing this tough exam!

Let's get started!

1. Given the following IP routing table entries, what interface would traffic destined for 110.1.1.1 use to exit the local router?

A. O 110.1.1.0 /24 [110/20] via ethernet0

B. R 110.1.1.0 /24 [120/4] via serial0

C. O 110.1.1.0 /24 [110/10] via serial1

D. S* 0.0.0.0/0 via ethernet1

2. OSPF allows you to use a hierarchical approach to network design. Which of the following are advantages to such an approach?

A. Route summarization is made easier and more efficient

B. This allows the static assignment of OSPF RIDs

C. This allows OSPF to interact with other protocols with no chance of routing loops forming

D. OSPF Type 1 and Type 2 LSA flooding is limited

3. What protocol multicasts updates to 224.0.0.9?

4. Can RIP be configured to use update packet authentication?

A. Neither version of RIP allows this

B. Yes, Version 1 only

C. Yes, Version 2 only

D. Yes, either version can do this

5. Identify the range of private AS numbers that can be used with BGP.

You'll find the answers right after this brief, important message!

And now .. the answers!

1. "C". In this rather strange little routing table, the destination address matches all of the first three entries, so there's no need for the static default route.

Since the OSPF routes are considered more trustworthy due to their lower administrative distance, it's down to those two routes -- and since the prefix length is the same for both, the path with the lowest metric is used.

2. "A, D". Two classic reasons we like the hierarchical structure possible with OSPF -- it limits the flooding of certain OSPF LSA types, and route summarization is made easier and much more efficient.

3. RIP version 2 multicasts to 224.0.0.9.

4. "C". It seems that anything RIPv2 can do, RIPv1 just can't. :) RIPv2 does allow for packet update authentication where RIPv1 does not.

5. The range of private BGP AS numbers is 64512 to 65535.
