1. You are examining the results of the show ip route command - and you notice several OSPF routes bear an O E1 route designator. What does this signify?
These routes are Type-1 external routes. They define networks outside of the autonomous system and are advertised by Type 5 LSAs. The cost is calculated by adding the external cost to the internal cost of each link that the packet crosses. The use of
The only LSA flooded into the area is a single Type 3 default LSA.
The Network Summary (Type 3) LSA is sent into an area to advertise destinations outside the area. These LSAs are originated by Area Border Routers (ABRs). They flood throughout the autonomous system.
The next hop router for a backup path is called the feasible successor.
2. You need all redistributed networks to have a specified MED value. What command should you use?
Using the default-metric command in BGP configuration mode causes all redistributed networks to have the specified MED value.
Origin - AS-Path - Next-Hop
The next hop router for a backup path is called the feasible successor.
The O indicates the route is an OSPF intra-area route. The network destination is within the same area as the router on which this command is issued.

Multi Exit Discriminator.
This percentage can be changed on a per-interface basis by using the ip bandwidth-percent eigrp interface configuration command.

6. In a LAN - with which router(s) does a DROTHER form an adjacency?
IBGP is a BGP peering relationship between routers in the same autonomous system.

9. What is the correct router configuration command that must be issued on all routers in an OSPF area to use the strongest authentication method possible?
Route reflectors help address the fact that BGP requires that all BGP peers in the same autonomous system form an Internal BGP (IBGP) session with all peers in the autonomous system.
BGP peers exchange keepalive messages every 60 seconds by default. These keep the peering session active.
The router responds with an update of the routing information it possesses.

A site connected to more than one ISP at the same time. It is done for redundancy and backup if one ISP fails - and for better performance if one ISP provides a better path to frequently used networks. This also gives you an ISP-independent solution.
