Question 110
After implementing a correction at a bank network operations team in London, engineers must verify that this original problem is resolved: A distance-vector neighbor keeps advertising a broken prefix as reachable long after topology failure. Which observed result BEST demonstrates success?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This is the observable outcome for route poisoning on withdrawal. It tests whether the targeted change, 'Ensure route-withdrawal and poisoning behavior propagates the unreachable state instead of retaining stale reachability', actually resolved the reported issue at a bank network operations team in London. The original failure was: A distance-vector neighbor keeps advertising a broken prefix as reachable long after topology failure.
Incorrect Answers
That observation verifies vrf-aware show route in a different situation, such as when a VRF-connected subnet appears missing because the operator inspects only show ip route in the global table. For the reported route poisoning on withdrawal incident at a bank network operations team in London, the required acceptance evidence is: Neighbor routing state removes the failed prefix and no persistent forwarding loop remains. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies ospf area mismatch in a different situation, such as when two OSPF routers on one link receive hellos but use different area identifiers, preventing adjacency. For the reported route poisoning on withdrawal incident at a bank network operations team in London, the required acceptance evidence is: Neighbor routing state removes the failed prefix and no persistent forwarding loop remains. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies eigrp stub leaf in a different situation, such as when a remote branch does not transit traffic yet its router receives network-wide EIGRP query requests for unrelated destinations. For the reported route poisoning on withdrawal incident at a bank network operations team in London, the required acceptance evidence is: Neighbor routing state removes the failed prefix and no persistent forwarding loop remains. This other result does not test that condition directly.
