1. What kind of routing protocol is run within an AS?
After a neighbor is configured - BGP sends an open message to try to establish peering with that neighbor. Includes information such as autonomous system number - router ID - and hold time.
The network backdoor router configuration command causes the administrative distance assigned to the network to be forced to 200. The goal is to make Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) learned routes preferred.
Interior Gateway Protocol(IGP)
BGP peer groups would be ideal for this situation.
2. What is the correct command to view the BGP table on the local router?
OSPF uses IP protocol number 89.
The correct command is show ip bgp.
Mismatched MTU - Corrupted link-state request packet
BGP peer groups would be ideal for this situation.
3. How does EIGRP deal with a router that is slow in responding to reliable packets with acknowledgements?
The Cisco mode of Broadcast requires a full mesh topology.
The default value of the MED attribute is 0.
Type 7 LSAs are special external routes that you permit in a Not-So-Stubby area.
Slow neighbors are sent unicast packets in an attempt to resolve issues with slow neighbors.
4. In a LAN - with which router(s) does a DROTHER form an adjacency?
Aggregator - Community
Router(config-router)# neighbor ip-address route-reflector-client
For an OSPF router to advertise a default route into an area - the command default-information originate must be used. If the advertising router does not possess a default route in its routing table - you can use the always keyword to still generate
DROTHERs form an adjacency with the DR and BDR.
5. You need to change the default local preference value applied to all updates coming from external neighbors or originating locally. What command should you use?
A Priority value of 0 is configured on all routers.
Router(config-router)# neighbor ip-address route-reflector-client

A Priority value of 0 is configured on all routers.
The only LSA flooded into the area is a single Type 3 default LSA.
7. What IP protocol number is used by Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)?
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.
The default cost of the default route is 1.
Updates are sent to the DR.
OSPF uses IP protocol number 89.
8. You need to apply a route map to updates that are received from a BGP neighbor. What is the command you use to configure this?

200
Router(config)# ip community-list 1-99 permit|deny value [ value ... ]
11. What is the Feasible Distance (FD) value in EIGRP?
The neighbor command can be used to manually configure a neighbor in a NBMA OSPF environment. The full syntax of the command is: - Router(config-router)# neighbor ip-address [priority number] [poll-interval seconds] [cost number] [database-filter all
Lowest cost route calculated by adding the cost between the next hop router and the destination (AD) and the cost between the local router and the next hop. This sum is referred to as the FD.

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.
The BGP standards define several filtering-oriented communities for your use: no-export - Do not advertise routes to real External BGP (EBGP) peers - no-advertise - Do not advertise routes to any peer - local-as - Do not advertise routes to any EBGP

Place a static route pointing to NULL0 in the IP routing table.
10 seconds is the default Hello interval and the default Dead interval is 4 times that value.

20. What are the actions used by an Outbound Route Filter (ORF) type of Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI)-based filtering (type 1)?

For the Broadcast Cisco mode of operation: Dynamic or manual neighbor configuration? Dynamic - DR/BDR election required? DR/BDR election
23. You want to propagate a default route to other EIGRP speakers in the autonomous system. What command do you used to accomplish this?
The next step in the update process features the DR acknowledging the LSU and flooding it to all OSPF speakers using multicast 224.0.0.5.

24. What is the term for routers running BGP?
EIGRP uses the multicast IP address of 224.0.0.10 for Hellos and routing updates.
BGP speakers
Confederations are another method of solving the IBGP full mesh requirement. Confederations are smaller sub-autonomous systems created within the primary autonomous system to decrease the number of BGP peer connections.
The BGP process injects local routes in two different ways[md]1) using the network configuration commands and 2) using redistribution by another routing protocol.
25. What is the administrative distance for EBGP?
The next route selection criteria is for the router to prefer the highest weight (local to router).

During the OSPF adjacency process - the Exchange State follows the Exstart State.
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.
