Question 40

The change advisory board sees a repeat risk in this case: During a predeployment review for a manufacturing regional hub, the team discovers this design gap: two subsidiaries independently choose the same RFC 1918 prefixes and a merger creates ambiguous VPN routing. 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. Check for overlapping prefixes during acquisitions and maintain authoritative IP address inventories. Apply the same control to the manufacturing regional hub rollout checklist.
  2. Maintain an address management registry and enforce aggregate boundaries during branch allocations.
  3. Reserve hierarchy by region and use automated checks to prevent overlapping IPv6 prefixes.
  4. Document platform support for /31 and standardize point-to-point allocations in IPAM.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Check for overlapping prefixes during acquisitions and maintain authoritative IP address inventories. Apply the same control to the manufacturing regional hub rollout checklist. This control targets the underlying design risk. Overlapping private address space prevents unambiguous ordinary IP routing between identical prefixes. The follow-up acceptance check remains: Traffic to both formerly overlapping destinations follows the intended routes after renumbering or a documented translation boundary. The manufacturing regional hub acceptance record also captures this result.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Contiguous nonoverlapping prefixes can be summarized at a network boundary, reducing routing-table complexity. The repeat risk here is different: Overlapping private address space prevents unambiguous ordinary IP routing between identical prefixes. A directly relevant preventive control is: Check for overlapping prefixes during acquisitions and maintain authoritative IP address inventories. Apply the same control to the manufacturing regional hub rollout checklist.

C:

IPv6 LAN autoconfiguration normally relies on a /64 subnet; a /48 supports many distinct /64 subnets. The repeat risk here is different: Overlapping private address space prevents unambiguous ordinary IP routing between identical prefixes. A directly relevant preventive control is: Check for overlapping prefixes during acquisitions and maintain authoritative IP address inventories. Apply the same control to the manufacturing regional hub rollout checklist.

D:

RFC 3021 /31s can use both addresses on point-to-point links without ordinary network and broadcast host reservations. The repeat risk here is different: Overlapping private address space prevents unambiguous ordinary IP routing between identical prefixes. A directly relevant preventive control is: Check for overlapping prefixes during acquisitions and maintain authoritative IP address inventories. Apply the same control to the manufacturing regional hub rollout checklist.

Question 41

A design team must resolve this enterprise network problem: A campus allocates a /48 IPv6 prefix to a single access VLAN and cannot identify locations by prefix hierarchy. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Allocate at least a /25 for the present host count and separately reserve adjacent space for growth.
  2. Use suitable /31 IPv4 addressing on compatible point-to-point links rather than a /24 on each link.
  3. Use a structured site and VLAN hierarchy with separate /64 segments within the organization’s larger allocation.
  4. Set higher BGP local preference for the desired exit within the local AS.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Use a structured site and VLAN hierarchy with separate /64 segments within the organization’s larger allocation. This action addresses the stated design problem. Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. A practical confirmation is: Routing aggregates match assigned site boundaries and no two VLANs share a unicast prefix.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A /26 offers 62 usable conventional host addresses; a /25 offers 126, so /26 cannot accommodate 108 endpoints. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The needed response is: Use a structured site and VLAN hierarchy with separate /64 segments within the organization’s larger allocation.

B:

RFC 3021 /31s can use both addresses on point-to-point links without ordinary network and broadcast host reservations. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The needed response is: Use a structured site and VLAN hierarchy with separate /64 segments within the organization’s larger allocation.

D:

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: Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The needed response is: Use a structured site and VLAN hierarchy with separate /64 segments within the organization’s larger allocation.

Question 42

The design record describes this issue: A campus allocates a /48 IPv6 prefix to a single access VLAN and cannot identify locations by prefix hierarchy. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  1. IPv6 LAN autoconfiguration normally relies on a /64 subnet; a /48 supports many distinct /64 subnets.
  2. Overlapping private address space prevents unambiguous ordinary IP routing between identical prefixes.
  3. OSPF’s normal multiarea hierarchy uses Area 0 as the backbone connecting other areas.
  4. Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The correct engineering response is: Use a structured site and VLAN hierarchy with separate /64 segments within the organization’s larger allocation. The observable check is: Routing aggregates match assigned site boundaries and no two VLANs share a unicast prefix.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: IPv6 LAN autoconfiguration normally relies on a /64 subnet; a /48 supports many distinct /64 subnets. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

B:

Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: Overlapping private address space prevents unambiguous ordinary IP routing between identical prefixes. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

Question 43

After designing a change for the following scenario: A campus allocates a /48 IPv6 prefix to a single access VLAN and cannot identify locations by prefix hierarchy. Which acceptance observation BEST establishes the intended result?

  1. Routing aggregates match assigned site boundaries and no two VLANs share a unicast prefix.
  2. Traffic to both formerly overlapping destinations follows the intended routes after renumbering or a documented translation boundary.
  3. Each VLAN has a unique /64 and clients form valid IPv6 addresses with correct gateway reachability.
  4. The installed route shows eligible multiple next hops and traffic distribution stays within the link capacity plan.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Routing aggregates match assigned site boundaries and no two VLANs share a unicast prefix. Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Overlapping private address space prevents unambiguous ordinary IP routing between identical prefixes. In the case being tested, Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Routing aggregates match assigned site boundaries and no two VLANs share a unicast prefix.

C:

IPv6 LAN autoconfiguration normally relies on a /64 subnet; a /48 supports many distinct /64 subnets. In the case being tested, Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Routing aggregates match assigned site boundaries and no two VLANs share a unicast prefix.

D:

BGP multipath requires compatible selected paths under the platform’s path-equivalence rules; mere coexistence of peers is not enough. In the case being tested, Hierarchical IPv6 prefix planning supports route summarization and stable per-link /64 subnets. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Routing aggregates match assigned site boundaries and no two VLANs share a unicast prefix.

Question 44

A preventive architecture review covers this situation: A campus allocates a /48 IPv6 prefix to a single access VLAN and cannot identify locations by prefix hierarchy. Which preventive design control MOST DIRECTLY addresses this specific risk?

  1. Maintain an address management registry and enforce aggregate boundaries during branch allocations.
  2. Publish a site-level IPv6 addressing plan and review allocations before turn-up.
  3. Check for overlapping prefixes during acquisitions and maintain authoritative IP address inventories.
  4. Document platform support for /31 and standardize point-to-point allocations in IPAM.

Explanation

Question 49

A Cisco enterprise designer reviews the following scenario: An IS-IS campus has access routers that need only local area routes but their LSDBs grow with all enterprise topology changes. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Keep access routers in Level 1 and use appropriate Level 1-2 routers for interarea connectivity.
  2. Use deliberate IS-IS metrics aligned to both directions of the design and verify bidirectional reachability.
  3. Use an appropriate IS-IS overload-bit maintenance procedure before removing the router from transit service.
  4. Enable supported IS-IS adjacency authentication and restrict the physical or logical peer surface.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Keep access routers in Level 1 and use appropriate Level 1-2 routers for interarea connectivity. This action addresses the stated design problem. IS-IS Level 1 routers maintain area topology while Level 2 provides the interarea backbone. A practical confirmation is: Access routers retain area-local link-state information and still reach remote areas via the L1/L2 boundary.

Incorrect Answers

B:

IS-IS shortest-path selection is based on configured link-state costs, which may differ by direction. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: IS-IS Level 1 routers maintain area topology while Level 2 provides the interarea backbone. The needed response is: Keep access routers in Level 1 and use appropriate Level 1-2 routers for interarea connectivity.

C:

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: IS-IS Level 1 routers maintain area topology while Level 2 provides the interarea backbone. The needed response is: Keep access routers in Level 1 and use appropriate Level 1-2 routers for interarea connectivity.

D:

Routing protocol authentication helps prevent unauthenticated devices from injecting link-state information. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: IS-IS Level 1 routers maintain area topology while Level 2 provides the interarea backbone.
