Cisco Exam 200-301 Topic 20 Question 80 Discussion

Actual exam question for Cisco's 200-301 exam

Question #: 80
Topic #: 20

Refer to the exibit.

IP connectivity and OSPF are preconfigured on all devices where necessary. Do not make any changes to the IP addressing or OSPF. The company policy uses connected interfaces and next hops when configuring static routes except for load balancing or redundancy without floating static. Connectivity must be established between subnet 172.20.20.128/25 on the Internet and the LAN at 192.168.0.0/24 connected to SW1:

1. Configure reachability to the switch SW1 LAN subnet in router R2.

2. Configure default reachability to the Internet subnet in router R1.

3. Configure a single static route in router R2 to reach to the Internet subnet considering both redundant links between routers R1 and R2. A default route is NOT allowed in router R2.

4. Configure a static route in router R1 toward the switch SW1 LAN subnet where the primary link must be through Ethernet0/1. and the backup link must be through Ethernet0/2 using a floating route. Use the minimal administrative distance value when required.

In question 4, we need to configure a static route in router R1 toward the switch SW1 LAN subnet with primary and backup links specified. This requires a good understanding of floating routes.

For question 2, we are asked to configure default reachability to the Internet subnet in router R1. This should be done carefully to ensure proper connectivity.

For question 1, we need to configure reachability to the switch SW1 LAN subnet in router R2. We should use a static route for this.

Definitely. And the fact that we can't make any changes to the IP addressing or OSPF configurations adds an extra layer of complexity. We've got to be really careful to not mess up the existing setup.
