It refuses to advertise the dynamic route to other neighbors
It sends a withdrawal signal to the neighboring router

It prefers the static route
Which of the following is NOT a way that a router can learn about a remote network?
Directly connected networks
Dynamically, with a routing protocol
Manually, with static routes
Using information from a USB stick
SHOW ANSWER
One advantage of static routing is
It uses less CPU than dynamic routing
It is set up with no human intervention
It uses more bandwidth than dynamic routing
It can find all the remote networks in the Internet
One disadvantage of static routing is
It is error-prone because humans enter the data
It reacts more quickly to network changes than dynamic routing
It uses more bandwidth than dynamic routing
It stops PCs from working
One place where static routing is used is
on a router connected to a stub network
on an Access switch
on a router in the core of the Internet
on a Core switch
The Cisco command to set up a static route is
ip route <network> <mask> <exit interface>
ip route <network>
static route <network> <mask> <exit interface>
add static <network> <netmask>
To verify that you have entered a correct static route, you would use the Cisco command
show ip route
show ip static
show static route
show static entries
Instead of the exit interface in a static route, you can specify
the IP address of the next router
the IP address of Google
the MAC address of the next router
the domain name of the next router
For a default route, the network is always specified as
0.0.0.0
255.255.255.0
255.255.255.255
default
For a default route, the netmask is always specified as
0.0.0.0
255.255.255.0
255.255.255.255
no netmask is needed
What does “ip route 5.6.7.0 255.255.255.0 s0/0/1” mean?
Send packets for 5.6.7.0 /24 out on interface s0/0/1
Send all packets to s0/0/1
Send packets to 255.255.255.0 to router 5.6.7.0

The command output shows two routes from the longer output of the show ipv6 route command. Which answers are true about the output?
The route to ::/0 is added because of an ipv6 address interface subcommand.
The administrative distance of the route to 2001:DB8:2:2::/64 is 1.
The route to 2001:DB8:2:2::/64 is added because of an IPv6 routing protocol.
The route to ::/0 is added because of an ipv6 route global command.
A router has been configured with the ipv6 address 3111:1:1:1::1/64 command on its G0/1 interface and ipv6 address 3222:2:2:2::1/64 on its G0/2 interface. Both interfaces are working. Which of the following routes would you expect to see in the output of the show ipv6 route connected command? (Choose two answers.)
A route for 3111:1:1:1::1/64
A route for 3222:2:2:2::2/128
A route for 3111:1:1:1::/64
A route for 3222:2:2:2::/64
An engineer needs to add a static IPv6 route for prefix 2000:1:2:3::/64 to Router R5 in the figure shown. Which of the following answers shows a valid static IPv6 route for that subnet on Router R5?

Examine the output shown in the exhibit. What is true about the number 1 shown in brackets?
It is the metric.
It is the administrative distance.
It is the order of analysis for a routing decision.
It is the hop count.
An engineer types the command ipv6 route 2001:DB8:8:8::/64 2001:DB8:9:9::9 129 in configuration mode of Router R1 and presses Enter. Later, a show ipv6 route command does not list any route for subnet 2001:DB8:8:8::/64. Which of the following could have caused the route to not be in the IPv6 routing table?
The router has no routes that match 2001:DB8:9:9::9.
The command should be using a next-hop link-local address instead of a global unicast.
A route for 2001:DB8:8:8::/64 with administrative distance 110 already exists.
The command is missing an outgoing interface parameter, so IOS rejected the ipv6 route command.
Which Cisco IOS command would correctly route traffic destined for the 8163:bc23:4632:ac23::/64 network using the fe80::1234:7484:26b4:2362 next hop address out the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface?
ipv6 route 8163:bc23:4632:ac23:/64 Gi0/1 link-local fe80::1234:7484:26b4:2362
ipv6 route 8163:bc23:4632:ac23::/64 fe80::1234:7484:26b4:2362
