CCNA 2, Chapters 1-6 Review Exam Questions and
Answers.
A network administrator enters the command copy running-config startup-config. Which
type of memory will the startup configuration be placed into? - Correct Answer NVRAM
Which packet-forwarding method does a router use to make switching decisions when it is
using a forwarding information base and an adjacency table? - Correct Answer Cisco
Express Forwarding
When a router receives a packet, it examines the destination address of the packet and
looks in the __________ table to determine the best path to use to forward the packet. -
Correct Answer routing
What are two functions of a router? - Correct Answer A router connects multiple IP
networks
It determines the best path to send packets
In order for packet to be sent to a remote destination, what three pieces of information
must be configured on a host? - Correct Answer IP address
subnet mask
default gateway
Which software is used for a network administrator to make the initial router configuration
securely? - Correct Answer terminal emulation client software
What is a characteristic of an IPv4 loopback interface on a Cisco IOS router? - Correct
Answer It is a logical interface internal to the router
What two pieces of information are displayed in the output of the show ip interface brief
command? - Correct Answer IP addresses
Layer 1 statuses
Which of the following items are used by a host device when performing ANDing operation
to determine if a destination address is on the same local network? - Correct Answer
destination IP address
subnet mask
What does a router uses as the MAC address of the destination when constructing the
frame that will go from the router to another device? - Correct Answer If the destination
MAC address that corresponds to the IPv4 address is not in the ARP cache, the router
sends an ARP request.
, Which two statements correctly describe the concepts of administrative distance and
metric? (2) - Correct Answer Administrative distance refers to the trustworthiness of a
particular route.
Routes with the smallest metric to a destination indicate the best path.
Which two parameters are used by EIGRP as metrics to select the best path to reach a
network? (2) - Correct Answer bandwidth
delay
What route would have the lowest administrative distance? - Correct Answer a directly
connected network
Consider the following routing table entry for R1:
D 10.1.1.0/24 [90/2170112] via 209.165.200.226, 00:00:05, Serial0/0/0
What is the significance of the Serial 0/0/0? - Correct Answer It is the interface on R1 used
to send data that is destined for 10.1.1.0/24
A network administrator configures the interface fa0/0 on the router R1 with the command
ip address 172.16.1.254 255.255.255.0. However, when the administrator issues the
command show ip route, the routing table does not show the directly connected network.
What is the possible cause of the problem? - Correct Answer The interface fa0/0 has not
been activated.
A network administrator configures a router by the command ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
209.165.200.226. What is the purpose of this command? - Correct Answer to provide a
route to forward packets for which there is no route in the routing table
What are two common types of static routes in routing tables? (2) - Correct Answer a
default static route
a static route to a specific network
what is the effect of configuring the ipv6 unicast-routing command on a router? - Correct
Answer to enable the router as an ipv6 router
What are two advantages of static routing over dynamic routing? - Correct Answer Static
routing is more secure because it does not advertise over the network.
Static routing uses fewer router resources than dynamic routing.
What is the correct syntax of a floating static route?
- ip route 209.165.200.228 255.255.255.248 serial 0/0/0
- ip route 209.165.200.228 255.255.255.248 10.0.0.1 120
- ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 serial 0/0/0
- ip route 172.16.0.0 255.248.0.0 10.0.0.1 - Correct Answer ip route 209.165.200.228
255.255.255.248 10.0.0.1 120
