CCNA 2

1. Which two statements correctly describe the concepts of administrative distance and metric? (Choose two.)

Administrative distance refers to the trustworthiness of a particular route.
A router first installs routes with higher administrative distances.

The value of the administrative distance can not be altered by the network administrator.

Routes with the smallest metric to a destination indicate the best path.

The metric is always determined based on hop count.

The metric varies depending which Layer 3 protocol is being routed, such as IP or IPX.

2.

Refer to the exhibit. Which statement correctly describes how R1 will determine the best path to R2?

R1 will install a RIP route using network A in its routing table because the administrative distance of RIP is higher than EIGRP.

R1 will install a RIP route using network A in its routing table because the path cost from RIP is lower than EIGRP.

R1 will install an EIGRP route using network B in its routing table because the administrative distance of EIGRP is lower than RIP.

R1 will install an EIGRP route using network B in its routing table because the path cost from EIGRP is lower than RIP.

R1 will install an EIGRP route and a RIP route in its routing table and load balance between them.

1. A static route that points to the next hop IP will have what administrative distance and metric in the routing table?

administrative distance of 0 and metric of 0

administrative distance of 0 and metric of 1

administrative distance of 1 and metric of 0

administrative distance of 1 and metric of 1

2. What address can be used to summarize networks 172.16.1.0/24, 172.16.2.0/24, 172.16.3.0/24, and 172.16.4.0/24?

172.16.0.0/21

172.16.1.0/22

172.16.0.0 255.255.255.248

172.16.0.0 255.255.252.0

1. If a router cannot find a valid configuration file during the startup sequence, what will occur?

The startup sequence will reset.

The router will prompt the user for a response to enter setup mode.

The startup sequence will halt until a valid configuration file is acquired.

The router will generate a default configuration file based on the last valid configuration.

The router will monitor local traffic to determine routing protocol configuration requirements.

2.

Refer to the exhibit. The network administrator has configured the router with the interface IP addresses shown for the directly connected networks. Pings from the router to hosts on the connected networks or pings between router interfaces are not working. What is the most likely problem?

The destination networks do not exist.

The IP addresses on the router interfaces must be configured as network addresses and not host addresses.

The interfaces must be enabled with the no shutdown command.

Each interface must be configured with the clock rate command.
