Question 120

A campus advertises overlapping VLAN subnet ranges across two sites, generating unpredictable routing to both. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Renumber or resegment overlapping prefixes or establish an explicitly designed translation boundary.
  2. Replace the wrong next hop with a reachable gateway validated against the routed adjacency.
  3. Configure monitored failover or route tracking so the backup next hop becomes active when the primary path fails.
  4. Install the route or approved controlled route leak in the correct guest VRF.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that duplicate destination prefixes prevent unambiguous routed reachability between sites. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: each site has unique routes, and permitted inter-site flows reach the intended endpoints.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a distribution switch cannot reach an application subnet because its static route references an incorrect next-hop IP. The reported fault instead arises because duplicate destination prefixes prevent unambiguous routed reachability between sites.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus core has a default route toward a failed WAN link, while the healthy standby WAN is not preferred. The reported fault instead arises because duplicate destination prefixes prevent unambiguous routed reachability between sites.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus routes guest and employee traffic in separate VRFs but a technician adds a guest static route only to the employee VRF. The reported fault instead arises because duplicate destination prefixes prevent unambiguous routed reachability between sites.

Question 121

A campus uplink is configured as an unnumbered Layer 3 interface but operators try to troubleshoot it as a tagged L2 trunk. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Adjust the inbound route policy narrowly to permit intended prefixes.
  2. Review the effective routing filter and allow the explicitly intended prefix.
  3. Inspect the routed-port configuration and establish the required L3 neighbor and routing exchange.
  4. Restore the appropriate route before making speculative changes to permit ACLs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying issue is that a routed interface does not automatically behave as a VLAN-bearing access/trunk port. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: the point-to-point IP adjacency and expected routes work without unnecessary VLAN tagging.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a BGP peer is Established but upstream routes are not accepted due to a prefix filter that rejects the approved campus CIDR. The reported fault instead arises because a routed interface does not automatically behave as a VLAN-bearing access/trunk port.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF router has a healthy adjacency but a destination prefix is missing after someone configured a restrictive inbound route filter. The reported fault instead arises because a routed interface does not automatically behave as a VLAN-bearing access/trunk port.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an ACL allows a remote application subnet, yet a client cannot access it because the SVI has no route to that destination. The reported fault instead arises because a routed interface does not automatically behave as a VLAN-bearing access/trunk port.

Question 122

An ACL allows a remote application subnet, yet a client cannot access it because the SVI has no route to that destination. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Check the DR/BDR election and determine whether 2-Way is normal for the non-DR peer relationship.
  2. Align the supported MTU across the OSPF link and then rebuild adjacency if required.
  3. Restore the appropriate route before making speculative changes to permit ACLs.
  4. Set supported route costs or policy attributes to express the approved primary/backup preference.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying issue is that traffic cannot reach an authorized destination without an IP forwarding path. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: the destination is reachable through the specified next hop while access restrictions remain.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF neighbor becomes stuck at 2-Way on a multiaccess broadcast network and the engineer expects every pair of routers to reach Full. The reported fault instead arises because traffic cannot reach an authorized destination without an IP forwarding path.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF adjacency remains in ExStart after a new routed uplink is installed with conflicting MTU settings. The reported fault instead arises because traffic cannot reach an authorized destination without an IP forwarding path.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a branch has two equally routed core uplinks, but one should be reserved as a backup for high-priority traffic. The reported fault instead arises because traffic cannot reach an authorized destination without an IP forwarding path.

Question 123

An OSPF neighbor becomes stuck at 2-Way on a multiaccess broadcast network and the engineer expects every pair of routers to reach Full. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Advertise only correctly bounded summaries and explicit exceptions matching owned reachability.
  2. Restore appropriate area 0 connectivity or use a carefully justified supported backbone extension.
  3. Check the DR/BDR election and determine whether 2-Way is normal for the non-DR peer relationship.
  4. Adjust the inbound route policy narrowly to permit intended prefixes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying issue is that on broadcast segments, DROther peers may remain 2-Way while Full adjacency forms with the DR/BDR. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: the neighbor topology matches designated-router roles and routes are exchanged correctly.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a network team wants to aggregate many campus subnets but summarizes beyond a boundary that includes networks it does not own. The reported fault instead arises because on broadcast segments, DROther peers may remain 2-Way while Full adjacency forms with the DR/BDR.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF multi-area design attaches a remote area directly to another remote area without an approved backbone connection or virtual-link design. The reported fault instead arises because on broadcast segments, DROther peers may remain 2-Way while Full adjacency forms with the DR/BDR.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a BGP peer is Established but upstream routes are not accepted due to a prefix filter that rejects the approved campus CIDR. The reported fault instead arises because on broadcast segments, DROther peers may remain 2-Way while Full adjacency forms with the DR/BDR.

Question 124

A team adds a new L3 transit VLAN but configures the wrong IP mask on one side of the point-to-point link. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Align the supported MTU across the OSPF link and then rebuild adjacency if required.
  2. Configure monitored failover or route tracking so the backup next hop becomes active when the primary path fails.
  3. Inspect the routed-port configuration and establish the required L3 neighbor and routing exchange.
  4. Align a consistent supported transit prefix and check adjacency reachability.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The underlying issue is that peer interfaces with incompatible on-link subnets cannot reliably establish local next-hop reachability. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: the two routed peers ping each other in the transit VRF and form expected neighbor state.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF adjacency remains in ExStart after a new routed uplink is installed with conflicting MTU settings. The reported fault instead arises because peer interfaces with incompatible on-link subnets cannot reliably establish local next-hop reachability.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus core has a default route toward a failed WAN link, while the healthy standby WAN is not preferred. The reported fault instead arises because peer interfaces with incompatible on-link subnets cannot reliably establish local next-hop reachability.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus uplink is configured as an unnumbered Layer 3 interface but operators try to troubleshoot it as a tagged L2 trunk. The reported fault instead arises because peer interfaces with incompatible on-link subnets cannot reliably establish local next-hop reachability.

Question 125

A campus uses policy-based routing to force a selected application through a service appliance, but a catch-all policy inadvertently redirects user DNS traffic too. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Implement a narrow supported service reachability or controlled route-leak policy for the NTP destination.
  2. Narrow the route policy match to the approved source, destination and traffic classification.
  3. Preserve the correctly learned specific route and apply longest-prefix-match forwarding.
  4. Withdraw the obsolete static route or correct its administrative distance based on the cutover plan.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying issue is that an overly broad PBR match overrides normal routing for unrelated DNS sessions. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: the target application uses the appliance path while DNS follows its ordinary permitted route.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a policy requires restricted services in a management VRF to reach a shared NTP system but forbids broad connectivity to the production user VRF. The reported fault instead arises because an overly broad PBR match overrides normal routing for unrelated DNS sessions.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a distribution switch learns a specific /24 route and a broader /16 summary; engineers expect the summary to override the specific route. The reported fault instead arises because an overly broad PBR match overrides normal routing for unrelated DNS sessions.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a WAN cutover leaves a static route pointing to an old gateway while the current routing protocol advertises a new next hop. The reported fault instead arises because an overly broad PBR match overrides normal routing for unrelated DNS sessions.

Question 126

A default route learned from dynamic routing persists despite a better directly connected route for an internal subnet. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Restore symmetric bidirectional reachability by advertising or adding the missing return prefix.
  2. Verify longest-prefix matching before changing administrative distances or the default route.
  3. Set supported route costs or policy attributes to express the approved primary/backup preference.
  4. Narrow the route policy match to the approved source, destination and traffic classification.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying issue is that a 0/0 default route serves only destinations without a more-specific matching route. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: internal subnet traffic follows the directly connected prefix and external traffic uses default routing.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a device sends packets to a remote IPv6 network, but return traffic fails because the remote router lacks the source-prefix route. The reported fault instead arises because a 0/0 default route serves only destinations without a more-specific matching route.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a branch has two equally routed core uplinks, but one should be reserved as a backup for high-priority traffic. The reported fault instead arises because a 0/0 default route serves only destinations without a more-specific matching route.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus uses policy-based routing to force a selected application through a service appliance, but a catch-all policy inadvertently redirects user DNS traffic too. The reported fault instead arises because a 0/0 default route serves only destinations without a more-specific matching route.

Question 127

A WAN cutover leaves a static route pointing to an old gateway while the current routing protocol advertises a new next hop. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Withdraw the obsolete static route or correct its administrative distance based on the cutover plan.
  2. Align the supported MTU across the OSPF link and then rebuild adjacency if required.
  3. Preserve the correctly learned specific route and apply longest-prefix-match forwarding.
  4. Restore symmetric bidirectional reachability by advertising or adding the missing return prefix.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that static-route preference can override the new dynamic route even when the old path is broken. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: traffic uses the intended new routed path and the obsolete gateway is absent from active routes.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF adjacency remains in ExStart after a new routed uplink is installed with conflicting MTU settings. The reported fault instead arises because static-route preference can override the new dynamic route even when the old path is broken.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a distribution switch learns a specific /24 route and a broader /16 summary; engineers expect the summary to override the specific route. The reported fault instead arises because static-route preference can override the new dynamic route even when the old path is broken.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a device sends packets to a remote IPv6 network, but return traffic fails because the remote router lacks the source-prefix route. The reported fault instead arises because static-route preference can override the new dynamic route even when the old path is broken.

Question 128

A data center's OSPF router and campus peer have matching area IDs but fail adjacency because their hello/dead timers differ. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Enable OSPF neighbor formation on the intended routed uplink while keeping user-facing interfaces appropriately passive.
  2. Restore symmetric bidirectional reachability by advertising or adding the missing return prefix.
  3. Replace the wrong next hop with a reachable gateway validated against the routed adjacency.
  4. Align compatible OSPF hello and dead timers at the routed link endpoints.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The underlying issue is that OSPF neighboring interfaces require compatible timer parameters to maintain adjacency. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: the peers exchange hellos and reach Full with agreed timers.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when two Aruba CX routers run OSPF on a point-to-point uplink but show no neighbor because one interface is passive. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF neighboring interfaces require compatible timer parameters to maintain adjacency.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a device sends packets to a remote IPv6 network, but return traffic fails because the remote router lacks the source-prefix route. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF neighboring interfaces require compatible timer parameters to maintain adjacency.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a distribution switch cannot reach an application subnet because its static route references an incorrect next-hop IP. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF neighboring interfaces require compatible timer parameters to maintain adjacency.

Question 129

A company wants enterprise WLAN admission but plans to deploy a shared WPA2 personal passphrase to every employee. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Use 802.1X enterprise authentication with a supported central AAA policy and individual or device credentials.
  2. Migrate supported monitoring to SNMPv3 authentication and privacy with least-privilege access.
  3. Use named administrator identities and centrally audited AAA with appropriate role permissions.
  4. Assign a time-bound minimal troubleshooting role or policy allowing only required destinations.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that a common PSK does not provide per-identity access decisions or practical individual revocation. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: a departing user is denied without requiring a shared password change for all staff.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus exposes SNMPv2 community strings over a shared operations network despite a requirement for authenticated encrypted monitoring. The reported fault instead arises because a common PSK does not provide per-identity access decisions or practical individual revocation.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a facilities vendor uses a shared switch administrator account, and investigators cannot attribute a recent unauthorized configuration change. The reported fault instead arises because a common PSK does not provide per-identity access decisions or practical individual revocation.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a network engineer opens full access for contractors to troubleshoot one campus printer. The reported fault instead arises because a common PSK does not provide per-identity access decisions or practical individual revocation.

Question 130

A guest SSID is connected to a network that allows lateral traffic into staff database servers. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Use named administrator identities and centrally audited AAA with appropriate role permissions.
  2. Replace defaults using credential management and restrict administrative access to approved operators.
  3. Apply a narrow guest access policy that blocks internal protected prefixes and permits only approved guest services.
  4. Enforce role-based access specific to user/device class and review least-privilege requirements.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying issue is that the guest role's effective firewall policy permits unintended east-west and internal traffic. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: guests can access permitted internet destinations while protected networks remain unreachable.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a facilities vendor uses a shared switch administrator account, and investigators cannot attribute a recent unauthorized configuration change. The reported fault instead arises because the guest role's effective firewall policy permits unintended east-west and internal traffic.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an employee access switch accepts default administrative passwords from a factory deployment image. The reported fault instead arises because the guest role's effective firewall policy permits unintended east-west and internal traffic.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a switch administrator attempts to apply a full-access policy to every authenticated wired client to simplify ticket handling. The reported fault instead arises because the guest role's effective firewall policy permits unintended east-west and internal traffic.
