Basic Routing

An autonomous system is a collection of networks with the same routing policy and under the same administrative control. Routers use administrative distance to select the best path and enforce routing policy. Dynamic routing enables routers to select paths according to real-time logical network layout changes. BGP is the most popular EGP in use and known for its ability to exchange routing information between different autonomous systems, which is important for reachability on the Internet.

1.

An _______ is a collection of networks with the same routing policy and under
the same administrative control.
o  Autonomous System
o  Interior Gateway Protocol

o  Administrative Distance
Correct
2. True or false. A router has two main functions routing and convergancing.
o  True

o  False
Incorrect
3. Routers use AD to:
o  select the best path

o  peer with customers

o  enforce routing policy


Correct
4. True or false. There is a destination entry in the routing table. It identifies the
destination IP address or the destination network address of an IP packet.
o  True

o  False
Correct
5. Which of the following is incorrect regarding static routes?
o  Static routes are easy to configure, but cannot automatically adapt to
network topology changes and require subsequent maintenance.

o  Static routes are configured manually by network engineers.

o  There is a special static route called the exchange route. It is


used to route packets that are not explicitly listed in the routing table.
Correct
6. ___________ enables routers to select paths according to real-time logical
network layout changes.
o  Dynamic routing

o  Static routing

o  Exchange routing
Correct
7. An Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) is generally used to find path information
within a network. It is commonly used for an ISP’s infrastructure addresses, but not for
customer prefixes. Which of the following are examples of IGP?
o  RIP

o  IGRP and EIGRP

o  IS-IS

o  OSPF

o  EGP
Correct
8. A route entry contains different attributes that describes the prefix. An example is
the outgoing interface which is:
o  is indicated through the IP address of the next router that an IP packet
passes through

o  is the destination IP address or the destination network address of an


IP packet
o  is the interface from which the packet will be sent out
Correct
9. True or false. An Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) is used to exchange routing
information between different autonomous systems. It is important for reachability on
the Internet.
o  True

o  False
Correct
10. True or false. BGP is the most popular IGP in use and known for its fast
convergence. A:
o  True

o  False
Correct
