Cisco Routing: Static, Dynamic, and IPv6 Routing Concepts
1. What feature on a Cisco router permits the gateway of last resort
forwarding of traffic for which there is no
specific route?
2. What are three advantages of static rout- 1. Better security due to no advertisement
ing? over the network. 2. Uses less network
bandwidth and CPU operations. 3. The path
used to send data is known.
3. What are two functions of dynamic routing 1. To maintain routing tables. 2. To discover
protocols? the network.
4. What is an advantage of using dynamic Ability to actively search for new routes if the
routing protocols instead of static routing? current path becomes unavailable.
5. What happens to a static route entry in a The static route is removed from the routing
routing table when the outgoing interface table.

6. What is a characteristic of a static route that It identifies the gateway IP address for all IP
matches all packets? packets without a learned or static route.
7. When is it more beneficial to use a dynamic On a network with a lot of topology
routing protocol instead of static routing? changes.
8. Which route would be used to forward a 10.1.1.0/24 [110/65] via 192.168.200.2,
packet with a source IP of 192.168.10.1 and 00:01:20, Serial0/1/0
a destination IP of 10.1.1.1?

for the route to reach the destination IPv6
address of 2001:DB8:CAFE:4::A?
