Question 130
After implementing a correction at a logistics hub in Berlin, engineers must verify that this original problem is resolved: A phase 3 DMVPN uses only hub transit even for established spoke-to-spoke flows because redirect and shortcut mechanisms are absent. Which observed result BEST demonstrates success?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This is the observable outcome for phase 3 nhrp redirect shortcut. It tests whether the targeted change, 'Configure the appropriate hub NHRP redirect and spoke NHRP shortcut behavior for the phase 3 design', actually resolved the reported issue at a logistics hub in Berlin. The original failure was: A phase 3 DMVPN uses only hub transit even for established spoke-to-spoke flows because redirect and shortcut mechanisms are absent.
Incorrect Answers
That observation verifies dmvpn nhrp network id mismatch in a different situation, such as when the hub and spoke use different NHRP network identifiers despite otherwise consistent tunnel addressing. For the reported phase 3 nhrp redirect shortcut incident at a logistics hub in Berlin, the required acceptance evidence is: An initial hub-transited flow triggers a direct spoke-to-spoke forwarding shortcut. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies phase 2 next-hop-self in a different situation, such as when in phase 2 DMVPN, hub EIGRP changes the next hop to its own tunnel IP, preventing a direct spoke shortcut. For the reported phase 3 nhrp redirect shortcut incident at a logistics hub in Berlin, the required acceptance evidence is: An initial hub-transited flow triggers a direct spoke-to-spoke forwarding shortcut. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies static hub mapping at spoke in a different situation, such as when a spoke cannot send initial NHRP requests because it has no mapping from the hub's tunnel address to the reachable NBMA address. For the reported phase 3 nhrp redirect shortcut incident at a logistics hub in Berlin, the required acceptance evidence is: An initial hub-transited flow triggers a direct spoke-to-spoke forwarding shortcut. This other result does not test that condition directly.
