Q

What two features are SOHO Routers likely to have that Enterprise routers typically are less likely to have?

A
  1. SOHO routers almost always use Internet and VPN technology for their WAN connections to send data back and forth to rest of the Enterprise
  2. SOHO routers typically use a multi-function device that does routing, LAN switching, VPN, wireless, etc

Q

Why do routes for remote subnets typically list both an outgoing interface and next-hop router IP address?

A

Because routes for subnets that connect directly to the router do not need to be sent to another router so they can list only an outgoing interface

Q

Why should you always use the next hop IP for routes that will send packets out an Ethernet interface?

A

Because using the next hop IP identifies the specific device in the connected subnet

34
Q

How does a router pick a route if there are two routes that match?

A

It uses the one with the longest prefix length

35
Q

What is a floating static route?

A

A route that floats / moves in and out of the routing table depending on whether the better (lower) administrative distance route learned by the routing protocol exists currently. Router ignores static route during times when better routing protocol is known

36
Q

What must a router do when a static route competes with other static routes / routes learned by protocols?

A

Decide which one is the most specific (prefix) or has the better administrative distance

37
Q

True/False: By default IOS considers OSPF better than static routes?

A

False

38
Q

What is the default administrative distance for OSPF learned routes?

A

110

39
Q

What is the default administrative distance for static routes?

A

1

40
Q

How do you set a floating static route?

A

ip route destination_ip mask next-hop administrative_distance

41
Q

How would you show the administrative distance for a given route?

A

show ip route 172.16.2.0

42
Q

What are two reasons a static route might not appear in the routing table after being configured (with either outgoing interface or next hop IP)?

A
  1. The outgoing interface is not in an up/up state

2. The local router does not have a route to reach the next hop address

43
Q

How can you configure a static route so that basic checks are ignored and it is permanent?

A

Adding the ‘permanent’ keyword to ip route commands

44
Q

What is the routing metric and administrative distance for the following route?
10.2.2.0/30 [110/128] via 10.2.2.5, 14:31:52, Serial0/0/1

A

Administrative distance 110

Route metric 128

45
Q

True/False: Show ip route output of the routing table is organized by classful network?

A

True

46
Q

What is the time in a routing table output?

A

Time since route was first learned (OSPF and EIGRP)

47
Q

What is the routing protocol code for EIGRP?

A

D

48
Q

What is ROAS?

A

A feature where a router interface can connect to multiple VLAN based subnets using a single interface, and route traffic between them. It achieves this using sub-interfaces (multiple virtual router interfaces)

49
Q

Do Cisco routers typically attempt to negotiate trunking?

A

No

50
Q

How would you configure trunking on a Router?

A

interface Ge0/0.10
encapsulation dot1q 10
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

51
Q

True/False: The subinterface numbers have to match the VLAN ID when configuring ROAS

A

False

52
Q

What are the two options for configuring native VLANs on the trunk for ROAS?

A
  1. Configure on the normal physical interface, with NO encapsulation command
  2. Configure the IP on the sub-interface and use the encapsulation dot1q 10 native command
53
Q

What two commands are best to verify ROAS configuration?

A
  1. show ip route [connected]

2. show vlans

54
Q

What kind of site would it make sense to use a ROAS at?

A

Small remote sites

55
Q

What are the two main options for enabling IPv4 routing on a switch?

A
  1. SVI

2. Routed interfaces

56
Q

What is a SVI?

A

Switched Virtual Interface.

57
Q

What does L3 Switching function require to be connected to each VLAN?

A

A virtual interface

58
Q

How do you enable IP routing on Switches that require it to be manually enabled?

A

sdm prefer lanbase-routing
reload
ip routing

59
Q

How do you configure an SVI on a switch?

A

interface vlan 10
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
no shutdown

60
Q

What commands would you use to verify SVIs?

A

show ip route

show ip int brief

61
Q

What are the two main things you need to investigate when troubleshooting SVIs?

A
  1. Has IP routing been enabled on the switch?

2. Check VLAN associated with each interface is known and active on local switch. Else VLAN interfaces won’t come up

62
Q

What are the requirements for interfaces when expecting an SVI to work?

A

The switch must have at least one up/up interface that is assigned to that VLAN or a trunk interface for which the VLAN is in the allowed list (and is STP forwarding and not VTP pruned)

63
Q

How do routed interfaces / routed ports on switches work?

A

Make a physical port act like a router interface

64
Q

What is the key difference between a normal switch port and a routed port?

A

The routed port does not perform Layer 2 switching, instead triggering L3 routing logic when a frame arrives on that port

65
Q

What is the key difference between L2 and L3 EtherChannels with respect to how they treat the channel?

A

L3 EtherChannels treat the channel as a Routed port, instead of a switched port

66
Q

When would you use a routed interface / routed port with respect to connections to subnets?

A

When an L3 Switch needs an L3 interface connected to the subnet, and only ONE physical interface connects to that subnet

67
Q

When would you use a SVI with respect to connections to subnets?

A

When an L3 Switch needs a L3 interface connected to a subnet and MANY physical interfaces on the switch connect to that subnet

68
Q

How do you make a switch interface a routed interface?

A

Use the no switchport command

69
Q

Where would a routed interface show up in the output of show interfaces status

A

Under the VLAN heading with the word routed

70
Q

Where should you use Routed interfaces?

A

Any topologies with a Point to Point link between two devices that do routing

71
Q

Where should you use SVIs?

A

VLANs for which many interfaces (access and trunk) connect to the VLAN. Because SVIs can send and receive traffic out multiple ports on the same switch

72
Q

What is a downside of configuring routed ports for multiple links between switches and then enabling a routing protocol?

A

Multiple routes will be learned with the same neighboring switch as the next hop

73
Q

What is L3 EtherChannel?

A

Where multiple links act as one Layer 3 link

74
Q

How would you configure an L3 EtherChannel?

A 
Each interface:
  channel-group 10 mode on
  no switchport (make routed port)
Port Channel interface:
  interface port-channel 10
  no switchport
  ip address
75
Q

Does the channel-group number have to be the same for neighboring switches?

A

No. Only for the interfaces on the switch in that channel

76
Q

True/False: when configuring the EtherChannel the IP should not be placed on the PortChannel interface

A

False. It should only be placed on the PortChannel interface

77
Q

How do you show details about a port channels interfaces?

A

show interfaces port-channel 10

78
Q

What commands are useful for verifying the port channel?

A

show etherchannel summary
show interfaces status
show interfaces port-channel

79
Q

What are the two main areas to consider when troubleshooting an L3 EtherChannel?

A
  1. Channel group configuration (interface for etherchannel)

2. Check the list of settings that must match on the interfaces for an L3 EtherChannel to work

80
Q

What are the requirements that must match for an interface to be in an L3 EtherChannel?

A
  1. Speed
  2. Duplex
  3. Configured using no switchport
