Question 1

OSPFv2 is an IGP running on IPv4 networks, whereas OSPFv3 is an IGP running on IPv6 networks. OSPFv3 and OSPFv2 use the same types of packets, including Hello, DD, LSR, LSU, and LSAck packets. Which of the following statements is correct about OSPFv3 packets?

  • A. An OSPFv3 Hello packet carries the IPv6 address prefix of a router interface
  • B. OSPFv3 uses the link-local address as the source address for sending packets. Packets can be forwarded beyond the originating link
  • C. OSPFv3 uses the authentication field in the packet header for packet authentication
  • D. OSPFv3 uses IPv6 multicast addresses FF02::5 and FF02::6 to send OSPFv3 packets
Show Answer
Correct Answer:
C. OSPFv3 uses the authentication field in the packet header for packet authentication
Question 2

  • A. True
  • B. False
Show Answer
Correct Answer:
B. False
Question 3

By default, the domain ID of an OSPF process is the same as the process ID. You can run the domain-id command in the OSPF process view to change a domain ID.

  • A. True
  • B. False
Show Answer
Correct Answer:
B. False
Question 4

In Huawei's CloudWAN solution, the IGP is a supporting protocol that can collect and flood Layer 3 topology information on the entire network. In addition, the IGP can work with TWAMP/iFIT to collect SLA information such as link delay on the network.

  • A. True
  • B. False
Show Answer
Correct Answer:
B. False
Question 5

On an MA network, SR-MPLS is enabled on all IS-IS routers. Which of the following statements is correct?

  • A. If SR-MPLS is enabled, no DIS needs to be elected
  • B. The DIS collects the SRGB of each router and advertises the SRGB to other routers on the MA network
  • C. LSPs generated by the DIS describe all IS-IS routers on the network
  • D. The DIS generates a special node ID
Show Answer
Correct Answer:
D. The DIS generates a special node ID
Question 6

Question 10

Which of the following statements about the underlay network of a VXLAN-based virtualized campus network is incorrect?

  • A. The virtualized campus network solution introduces VXLAN technology, which uses MAC-in-UDP encapsulation to build a logical network over a traditional IP network
  • B. The underlay network provides IP reachability so that VXLAN-encapsulated service packets can be transmitted between VTEPs
  • C. When iMaster NCE-Campus is used to implement automatic orchestration of routing domains on the underlay network, only one routing protocol can be deployed in a single area
