Question 1

Which statement about static and dynamic routes is true?

A. Dynamic routes are manually configured by a network administrator, while static routes are automatically
learned and adjusted by a routing protocol
B. Static routes are manually configured by a network administrator, while dynamic routes are automatically
learned and adjusted by a routing protocol
C. Static routes tell the router how to forward packets to networks that are not directly connected, while dynamic
routes tell the router how to forward packets to networks that are directly connected
D. Dynamic routes tell the router how to forward packets to networks that are not directly connected, while
static routes tell the router how to forward packets to networks that are directly connected

Answer: B

Question 2

Refer to the exhibit. When PC 1 sends a packet to PC2, the packet has which source and destination IP address
when it arrives at interface Gi0/0 on router R2?

A. source [Link] and destination [Link]

B. source [Link] and destination [Link]
C. source [Link] and destination [Link]
D. source [Link] and destination [Link]

[Link] 1/13
11:01, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions

Answer: C

Explanation

The source and destination IP addresses of the packets are unchanged on all the way. Only source and
destination MAC addresses are changed.

Question 3

Which of the following dynamic routing protocols are Distance Vector routing protocols? (Choose two)

A. IS-IS
B. EIGRP
C. OSPF
D. BGP
E. RIP

Answer: B E

Question 4

Refer to the exhibit. With which metric was the route to host [Link] learned?

A. 0
B. 110
C. 38443
D. 3184439

Answer: C

Explanation

Both the line “O [Link]/25” and “S [Link]/24” cover the host [Link] but with the “longest
(prefix) match” rule the router will choose the first route.

Note: Network [Link]/29 does not cover host [Link]. For network [Link]/29:

Increment: 8
Network address: [Link]
[Link] 2/13
11:01, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions

Broadcast address: [Link]

Question 5

Refer to the exhibit. Which command would you use to configure a static route on Router 1 to network
[Link]/24 with a nondefault administrative distance?

A. router1(config)#ip route [Link] [Link] [Link] 1

B. router1(config)#ip route [Link] [Link] [Link] 5
C. router1(config)#ip route 1 [Link] [Link] [Link]
D. router1(config)#ip route 5 [Link] [Link] [Link]

Answer: B

Explanation

The default AD of static route is 1 so we need to configure another number for the static route.

Question 6

Refer to the exhibit. Which type of route does R1 use to reach host [Link]/32?

R1#show ip route
Gateway of last resort is [Link] to network [Link]
[Link] 3/13
11:01, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions

[Link]/8 is variably subnetted, 4 subnets. 3 Masks

C [Link]/30 is directly connected. FastEthernet0/1
O [Link]/25 [110/4576] via [Link], 02:53:11, FastEthernet0/1
C [Link]/30 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/24
0 [Link]/28 [110/110] via [Link], 03:51:21, FastEthernet0/1
B* [Link]/0 [20/0] via [Link], 02:17:53

A. floating static route

B. host route
C. default route
D. network route

Answer: D

Explanation

From the output, we see R1 will use the entry “O [Link]/25 [110/4576] via [Link], …” to reach host
[Link]. This is a network route.

Note: “B* [Link]/0 …” is a default route.

Question 7

Refer to the exhibit. If configuring a static default route on the router with the ip route [Link] [Link] [Link]
120 command, how does the router respond?

Gateway of last resort is [Link] to network [Link]

O*E2 [Link]/0 [110/1] via [Link], 00:00:01, GigabitEthernet0/0

[Link]/8 is variably subnetted, 2 subnets, 2 masks
C [Link]/24 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0
L [Link]/32 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0
C [Link]/24 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/1
L [Link]/32 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/1

A. It ignores the new static route until the existing OSPF default route is removed
B. It immediately replaces the existing OSPF route in the routing table with the newly configured static route
C. It starts load-balancing traffic between the two default routes
D. It starts sending traffic without a specific matching entry in the routing table to GigabitEthernet0/1

Answer: A

Explanation

Our new static default route has the Administrative Distance (AD) of 120, which is bigger than the AD of OSPF
External route (O*E2) so it will not be pushed into the routing table until the current OSPF External route is
removed.

For your information, if you don’t type the AD of 120 (using the command “ip route [Link] [Link] [Link]”)
then the new static default route would replace the OSPF default route as the default AD of static route is 1. You
will see such line in the routing table:

S* [Link]/0 [1/0] via [Link]

[Link] 4/13
11:01, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions

Question 8

When a floating static route is configured, which action ensures that the backup route is used when the primary
route falls?

A. The floating static route must have a higher administrative distance than the primary route so it is used as a
backup
B. The administrative distance must be higher on the primary route so that the backup route becomes secondary
C. The floating static route must have a lower administrative distance than the primary route so it is used as a
backup
D. The default-information originate command must be configured for the route to be installed into the routing
table

Answer: A

Question 9

Which attribute does a router use to select the best path when two or more different routes to the same
destination exist from two different routing protocols?

A. dual algorithm
B. metric
C. administrative distance
D. hop count

Answer: C

Question 10

Refer to the exhibit. Which route does R1 select for traffic that is destined to [Link]?
R1#show ip route
D [Link]/26 [90/2679326] via [Link]
R [Link]/24 [120/3] via [Link]
O [Link]/21 [110/2] via [Link]
i L1 [Link]/27 [115/30] via [Link]

A. [Link]/21
B. [Link]/24
C. 192.168 26.0/26
D. [Link]/27

Answer: D

Explanation

The destination IP addresses match all four entries in the routing table but the [Link]/27 has the longest
prefix so it will be chosen. This is called the “longest prefix match” rule.

Question 11

[Link] 5/13
11:01, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions

Refer to the exhibit. Which prefix does Router 1 use for traffic to Host A?

Router1#show ip route
Gateway of last resort is [Link] to network [Link]

[Link]/27 is sudnetted, 1 subnets

B [Link] [20/0] via [Link], 03:03:03
[Link]/27 is sudnetted, 1 subnets
B [Link] [20/0] via [Link], 03:03:03
[Link]/27 is subnetted, 1 subnets
B [Link] [20/0] via [Link], 03:03:03
[Link]/8 is variably subnetted, 8 subnets, 4 masks
C [Link]/28 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0
C [Link]/30 is directly connected, FastEthernet2/0
C [Link]/30 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/1
O [Link]/25 [110/2] via [Link], 00:00:03, GigabitEthernet0/0
O [Link]/28 [110/2] via [Link], 00:00:03, GigabitEthernet0/0
O [Link]/28 [110/2] via [Link], 00:00:03, GigabitEthernet0/0
O [Link]/29 [110/2] via [Link], 00:00:03, GigabitEthernet0/0
O [Link]/29 [110/2] via [Link], 00:00:03, GigabitEthernet0/0
S* [Link]/0 [1/0] via [Link]

A. [Link]/28
B. [Link]/25
C. [Link]/28
D. [Link]/29

Answer: D

Explanation

The prefix with “longest prefix” will be matched first, in this case is “/29”.

Question 12

Router A learns the same route from two different neighbors, one of the neighbor routers is an OSPF neighbor
and the other is an EIGRP neighbor. What is the administrative distance of the route that will be installed in the
routing table?

A. 20
B. 90
C. 110
D. 115

[Link] 6/13
11:01, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions

Answer: B

Explanation

The Administrative distance (AD) of EIGRP is 90 while the AD of OSPF is 110 so EIGRP route will be chosen
to install into the routing table.

Question 13

Refer to the exhibit. How does router R1 handle traffic to [Link]?

R1# show ip route

D [Link]/24 [90/2679326] via [Link]
R [Link]/27 [120/3] via [Link]
O [Link]/28 [110/2] via [Link]
i L1 [Link]/13 [115/30] via [Link]

A. It selects the IS-IS route because it has the shortest prefix inclusive of the destination address
B. It selects the RIP route because it has the longest prefix: inclusive of the destination address
C. It selects the OSPF route because it has the lowest cost
D. It selects the EIGRP route because it has the lowest administrative distance

Answer: B

Explanation

Note: The “O [Link]/28” route ranges from [Link] to [Link] only so it does not include
destination [Link] so OSPF route is not the correct answer.

Question 14

Refer to the exhibit. Which path is used by the router for Internet traffic?

R1#show ip route
Gateway of last resort is [Link] to network [Link]
[Link]/27 is subnetted, 1 subnets
B [Link] [20/0] via [Link], 00:10:34
[Link]/8 is variably subnetted, 4 subnets, 3 masks
C [Link]/28 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/0
C [Link]/30 is directly connected, FastEthernet2/0
C [Link]/30 [110/2] via [Link], 00:03:34, GigabitEthernet0/0
C [Link]/30 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/1
S* [Link]/0 [1/0] via [Link]

Switch1#show ip route
[Link] 7/13

@9tut where does those answers are coming from on question 10?
B. [Link]/24
C. 102.168 26.0/26
D. [Link]/27

@marie: They should be 192, not 102. Thanks for your detection, we have just fixed them!

@9tut – are You sure?

Both the line “O [Link]/25” and “S [Link]/24” cover the host [Link] but with the
“longest (prefix) match” rule the router will choose the first route.

I belive that administrative distance for static routes is 1 so Static will be taken as a first…?
I would be true with useing only ospf or static routes…?
Am I right?

5. 9tut
June 9th, 2020

@indeed: In this case the static route will not be chosen as the “O [Link]/25” route is more specific
than the static route (longest prefix wins).

@9tut
Question 4: Can someone please help me if the longest prefix rule wins. Then why dosen’t / 29 (D)
become the preferred choice.

8. 9tut
August 11th, 2020

@jonathan: Network [Link]/29 does not cover host [Link]. For network [Link]/29:

Increment: 8
Network address: [Link]
Broadcast address: [Link]

9. Ahmed

Hi 9tut,

I think there’s a little typo in the last part of the explanation of question 4 (regarding why network
[Link]/29 is not the right answer) – the broadcast address should be [Link] instead of
[Link] .

@9tut and All.

I think there is a bit of typo in Q. 6 which asks “Which type of route does R1 use to reach host
[Link]/32?”
I think the notation should read /25. i.e. “Which type of route does R1 use to reach host [Link]/25?”.
There is no /32 on the diagram neither in the output.
OR If I am wrong, please explain. thanks.

14. MoG

@Moussa: The notation of IP-Address/32 ([Link]/32 in Q#6) is common to refere to a specific host-
machine. This is due to the fact, that the binary form of the IP-Address and the Subnetmask do get
interconnected with a logical AND-function on routers, in order to determine the actual network address.
[Link] 9/13
11:01, 16/06/2022 CCNA Training » IP Routing Questions

As in a /32 Subnemask every bit is set to one this operation does return one exact IP-Address instead of a
network, which in turn only belongs to the specified host.

Hi guys. When they say EIGRP, how do i know if they are talking about internal (90) or external(170)
EIGRP? My question is based on Q12.

16. Ed
February 15th, 2021

@9tut , The question 13 on the official exam says “O [Link]/28” , not “O [Link]/23)

17. 9tut
February 16th, 2021

@Lihle: If they only said “EIGRP” then we should think about internal EIGRP.
@Ed: Thanks for your information, we have just updated Q.13.

HI, Why in the Q6 the answer is Network Rout ? And why not a Default Roue ?

Thanks

19. correctanswer

Q4: A router evaluates routes in the following order.

Prefix Length – The longest-matching route is preferred first. Prefix length trumps all other route
attributes.
Administrative Distance – In the event there are multiple routes to a destination with the same prefix
length, the route learned by the protocol with the lowest administrative distance is preferred.
Metric – In the event there are multiple routes learned by the same protocol with same prefix length, the
route with the lowest metric is preferred. (If two or more of these routes have equal metrics, load
balancing across them may occur.)

20. Q#6
September 10th, 2021

Ivan because the default route is pointing to [Link] internet’s interface not to PC [Link]
