SRWE Module 14 Quizs

The most optimal route chosen by a router to forward packets based on routing metrics (e.g., lowest cost, shortest hop count, etc.).

• Best Path

• Optimal Route

• Routing Table

• Packet Forwarding

A route that matches any destination IP address not explicitly listed in the routing table, typically used to send packets to an external gateway.

• Default Route

• Static Route

• Dynamic Route

• Backup Route

A method of load balancing where traffic is distributed across routes with different costs, often using protocols like EIGRP to make the decision.

• Equal-Cost Load Balancing

• Unequal-Cost Load Balancing

• Round Robin Load Balancing

• Static Load Balancing

The router that is the next destination point on the path to a given destination IP address.

• Next-Hop Router

• Gateway Router

• Access Router

• Core Router

The practice of distributing traffic across multiple routes to improve network performance and redundancy.

• Traffic Management

• Load Balancing

• Network Optimization

• Data Routing

The version of EIGRP that supports IPv6 addressing, enabling dynamic routing in IPv6 networks with similar features to the IPv4 version.

• EIGRP for IPv4

• EIGRP for IPv6

• OSPFv3

• RIPng

Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol, a hybrid routing protocol combining distance-vector and link-state features, providing faster convergence and more efficient routing.

• EIGRP

• OSPF

• RIP

• BGP

BGP Multiprotocol Extensions, an extension of BGP that allows BGP to support multiple address families, such as IPv6, multicast, and VPNs.

• BGP-MP

• BGP-IPv6

• BGP-VPN

• BGP-Multicast

A command used in Cisco routers to configure static routes manually, specifying destination networks and their associated next-hop IP addresses.

• ip route

• static route

• route add

• ip static

Routing Information Protocol version 2, a distance-vector protocol that uses hop count as its metric and supports classless inter-domain routing (CIDR).

• RIPv1

• RIPv2

• OSPF

• EIGRP
