Question
Answer
key functions of a router   switching from interfaces acting as intersection between multiple networks forwards packets to destination network  
🗑
what do these components of routers do? NVRAM RAM(SD RAM) Flash ROM   NVRAM: where startup config is stored RAM(SD RAM): where routing tables and mac addresses are stored (goes away when turned off) Flash: where IOS is stored ROM: a limited, stripped down IOS for emergencies  
🗑
four steps to router bootup (in order)   1. power on self test (POST) 2. bootstrap check 3. loads IOS from flash 4. startup configuration from NVRAM  
🗑
how do you identify a: Level 1 route ultimate route parent child   ultimate: has out going interface or next hop IP level 1: classful or supernetted, ultimate child: always an ultimate route, and supernetted parent: no outgoing interface, always classful or supernetted  
🗑
how do you select the routing protocol if there are more than one that lead to the same destination network?   Pick the protocol with the lowest administrative distance (EIGRP)  
🗑
What are the characteristics of a link-state routing protocol   1. updates are sent to everybody in a network 2. sends updates periodically/only when needed 3. complete topological view of network 4. uses dijkstra shortest route first  
🗑
what information can be learned from the show ip route command?   1. which routing protocols used (can tell by administrative distance) 2. networks 3. metrics  
🗑
what is the purpose of a metric in a routing protocol?   to compare and determine the best route  
🗑
what are the default metrics for these routing protocols: RIP EIGRP OSPF   RIP: hop count EIGRP: bandwidth & delay OSPF: cost (inverse of bandwidth)  
🗑
what do these metric values measure? hop count cost bandwidth   hop count: how many routers are between you and the destination network cost: the value to indicate preference for a route bandwidth: speed of a link  
🗑
what do these metric values measure? delay load reliability   delay: the time difference of what it takes and what it should take load: the amount of data/traffic on a link reliability: the amount of errors on a link  
🗑
which routing protocols support VLSM and therefore discontiguous networks?   OSPF EIGRP ISIS RIPv2  
🗑
which two devices can be used to connect to the internet?   modem (for DCE devices) CSUDSU (digital modems)  
🗑
When should these cables be used? patch (straight-through) crossover rollover   patch (straight-through): unlike devicecs crossover: like devices *except computer--router or switch--hub rollover: console port on route--serial port on computer  
🗑
which port should be used to configure a new router or one that has been erased?   console port  
🗑
how do you access these router prompt modes? user exec privilege exec global config interface   user exec: (the initial mode) privilege exec: enable global config: config t interface: interface fa0/0 (or whatever interface)  
🗑
what information can be obtained from the show interface fastEthernet command?   the mac address of outgoing interfaces  
🗑
which is the routing protocol or traffic forwarding that has the lowest overhead or uses the least resources?   static route  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
