- next-hop
- gateway of last resort
- route source
- outgoing interface
2. Which three advantages are provided by static routing? (Choose three.)
- Static routing does not advertise over the network, thus providing better security.
- Configuration of static routes is error-free.
- Static routes scale well as the network grows.
- Static routing typically uses less network bandwidth and fewer CPU operations than dynamic routing does.
- The path a static route uses to send data is known.
- No intervention is required to maintain changing route information.
3. What are two functions of dynamic routing protocols? (Choose two.)
- to maintain routing tables
- to assure low router overhead
- to avoid exposing network information
- to discover the network
- to choose the path that is specified by the administrator
4. What is an advantage of using dynamic routing protocols instead of static routing?
- easier to implement
- more secure in controlling routing updates
- fewer router resource overhead requirements
- ability to actively search for new routes if the current path becomes unavailable
5. What happens to a static route entry in a routing table when the outgoing interface associated with that route goes into the down state?
- The static route is removed from the routing table.
- The router polls neighbors for a replacement route.
- The router automatically redirects the static route to use another interface.
- The static route remains in the table because it was defined as static.
6. What is a characteristic of a static route that matches all packets?
- It uses a single network address to send multiple static routes to one destination address.
- It identifies the gateway IP address to which the router sends all IP packets for which it does not have a learned or static route.
- It backs up a route already discovered by a dynamic routing protocol.
- It is configured with a higher administrative distance than the original dynamic routing protocol has.
7. When would it be more beneficial to use a dynamic routing protocol instead of static routing?
- in an organization where routers suffer from performance issues
- on a stub network that has a single exit point
- in an organization with a smaller network that is not expected to grow in size
- on a network where there is a lot of topology changes
