Question 200

The change advisory board sees a repeat risk in this case: During a predeployment review for a multisite healthcare network, the team discovers this design gap: a partner sends default and private internal prefixes but the enterprise should learn only approved service aggregates. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. Which preventive design control MOST DIRECTLY addresses this specific risk?

  1. Maintain peer-specific prefix inventories and review BGP filters before provider changes. Apply the same control to the multisite healthcare network rollout checklist.
  2. Validate multipath equivalence and hashing behavior during capacity tests.
  3. Track advertised AS paths and validate ingress behavior with both providers after changes.
  4. Document and audit local preference policy consistently at ingress border peers.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Maintain peer-specific prefix inventories and review BGP filters before provider changes. Apply the same control to the multisite healthcare network rollout checklist. This control targets the underlying design risk. Route policy can prevent undesired BGP NLRI from entering the local routing system. The follow-up acceptance check remains: Only approved partner prefixes are accepted and excess or private prefixes are rejected and logged. The multisite healthcare network acceptance record also captures this result.

Incorrect Answers

B:

BGP multipath requires compatible selected paths under the platform’s path-equivalence rules; mere coexistence of peers is not enough. The repeat risk here is different: Route policy can prevent undesired BGP NLRI from entering the local routing system. A directly relevant preventive control is: Maintain peer-specific prefix inventories and review BGP filters before provider changes. Apply the same control to the multisite healthcare network rollout checklist.

C:

AS-path length can influence outside-AS best-path selection but remote networks keep final policy authority. The repeat risk here is different: Route policy can prevent undesired BGP NLRI from entering the local routing system. A directly relevant preventive control is: Maintain peer-specific prefix inventories and review BGP filters before provider changes. Apply the same control to the multisite healthcare network rollout checklist.

D:

BGP local preference is used within an AS to prefer an outbound path, with higher values preferred. The repeat risk here is different: Route policy can prevent undesired BGP NLRI from entering the local routing system. A directly relevant preventive control is: Maintain peer-specific prefix inventories and review BGP filters before provider changes. Apply the same control to the multisite healthcare network rollout checklist.

Question 201

A design team must resolve this enterprise network problem: Two equal-cost eBGP uplinks are supposed to share traffic, but only one eligible path is installed. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Set higher BGP local preference for the desired exit within the local AS.
  2. Consider controlled AS-path prepending on the less-preferred advertisement while acknowledging external policy can override it.
  3. Verify BGP multipath eligibility and configure supported maximum-path behavior with consistent policy.
  4. Use an appropriate IS-IS overload-bit maintenance procedure before removing the router from transit service.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Verify BGP multipath eligibility and configure supported maximum-path behavior with consistent policy. This action addresses the stated design problem. BGP multipath requires compatible selected paths under the platform’s path-equivalence rules; mere coexistence of peers is not enough. A practical confirmation is: The installed route shows eligible multiple next hops and traffic distribution stays within the link capacity plan.

Incorrect Answers

A:

BGP local preference is used within an AS to prefer an outbound path, with higher values preferred. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: BGP multipath requires compatible selected paths under the platform’s path-equivalence rules; mere coexistence of peers is not enough. The needed response is: Verify BGP multipath eligibility and configure supported maximum-path behavior with consistent policy.

B:

AS-path length can influence outside-AS best-path selection but remote networks keep final policy authority.

The needed response is: Verify BGP multipath eligibility and configure supported maximum-path behavior with consistent policy.

D:

The IS-IS overload bit discourages other routers from selecting the device as intermediate transit when a valid alternative exists. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: BGP multipath requires compatible selected paths under the platform’s path-equivalence rules; mere coexistence of peers is not enough. The needed response is: Verify BGP multipath eligibility and configure supported maximum-path behavior with consistent policy.

Question 202

The design record describes this issue: Two equal-cost eBGP uplinks are supposed to share traffic, but only one eligible path is installed. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  1. BGP paths require a reachable next hop in the forwarding plane; distributing the prefix alone is not sufficient.
  2. BGP local preference is used within an AS to prefer an outbound path, with higher values preferred.
  3. Contiguous nonoverlapping prefixes can be summarized at a network boundary, reducing routing-table complexity.
  4. BGP multipath requires compatible selected paths under the platform’s path-equivalence rules; mere coexistence of peers is not enough.

Question 209

A Cisco enterprise designer reviews the following scenario: A new service needs native IPv6 end-to-end while some clients still require IPv4 service continuity. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Deploy dual stack across participating links and hosts with distinct IPv4 and IPv6 routing and security controls.
  2. Prioritize native IPv6 for new workloads while preserving explicit interworking boundaries for legacy IPv4 dependencies.
  3. Design an IPv6-over-IPv4 tunnel between capable edge devices and account for MTU overhead.
  4. Evaluate a DNS64/NAT64 boundary where application protocols and addressing meet the translation requirements.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Deploy dual stack across participating links and hosts with distinct IPv4 and IPv6 routing and security controls. This action addresses the stated design problem. Dual stack runs both protocol families natively; it does not translate IPv4 packets into IPv6 packets. A practical confirmation is: The same service is reachable over IPv4 and IPv6, and separate policy logs show both paths allowed.

Incorrect Answers

B:

IPv6 migration can use native dual stack, overlays, or translation boundaries according to transport capabilities. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: Dual stack runs both protocol families natively; it does not translate IPv4 packets into IPv6 packets. The needed response is: Deploy dual stack across participating links and hosts with distinct IPv4 and IPv6 routing and security controls.

C:

An overlay tunnel encapsulates one protocol through the underlay without upgrading intermediate IPv4-only routers. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: Dual stack runs both protocol families natively; it does not translate IPv4 packets into IPv6 packets. The needed response is: Deploy dual stack across participating links and hosts with distinct IPv4 and IPv6 routing and security controls.

D:

DNS64 can synthesize AAAA records and NAT64 translates eligible IPv6 flows to IPv4; it is not ordinary dual stack. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: Dual stack runs both protocol families natively; it does not translate IPv4 packets into IPv6 packets. The needed response is: Deploy dual stack across participating links and hosts with distinct IPv4 and IPv6 routing and security controls.
