Q&A

As mentioned in the introduction, "All About the CCNP, CCDP, and CCIP Certifications," you have two choices for review questions. The questions that follow next give you a bigger challenge than the exam itself by using an open -ended question format. By reviewing now with this more difficult question format, you can exercise your memory better, and prove your conceptual and factual knowledge of this chapter. The answers to these questions are found in Appendix A.

For more practice with examlike question formats, including questions using a router simulator and multichoice questions, use the exam engine on the CD-ROM.

1:	Which command in OSPF shows the network LSA information?
2:	What command would you use to create a totally stubby area?
3:	What is a virtual link, and what command would you use to create it?
4:	Where would you issue the command to summarize IP subnets? State the command that is used.
5:	How would you summarize external routes before injecting them into the OSPF domain?
6:	When is a virtual link used?
7:	Give the command for defining the cost of a default route propagated into an area.
8:	Give an example of when it would be appropriate to define a default cost.
9:	On which router is the area default cost defined?
10:	Give the command to configure a stub area and state on which router it is configured.
11:	What is the purpose of the area range command, and why is it configured on the ABR?
12:	Give the commands to configure a router to place subnets 144.111.248.0 through to 144.111.255.0 in Area 1 and to put all other interfaces into Area 0.
13:	Give the syntax to summarize the subnets 144.111.248.0 to 144.111.254.255 into another autonomous system.
14:	Explain briefly the difference between the area range command and the summary-address command.
15:	Explain the following syntax and what it will achieve: area 1 stub no-summary .
16:	Why would you configure the routing process to log adjacency changes as opposed to turning on debug for the same trigger?
17:	Give some of the common reasons that neighbors fail to form an adjacency.
18:	When configuring a virtual link, which routers are configured?
19:	What does the command area 1 default-cost 15 achieve?
20:	Explain what is placed in the parameters area-id and router-id for the command area area-id virtual-link router-id .
