Refer to the topology. Your company has connected the routers R1, R2 and R3 with serial
links. R2 and R3 are connected to the switches SW1 and SW2, respectively. SW1 and SW2
are also connected to the routers R4 and R5.
The EIGRP routing protocol is configured. You are required to troubleshoot and resolve the
EIGRP issues between the various routers. Use the appropriate show commands to
troubleshoot the issues.
1/6
Instead of posting the output of show run commands we post here the commands
entered on each router to reduce some useless lines. Also you can try solving questions by
yourself before reading the answers.
Note: In the exam, this sim uses IOS version 15 so no auto-summary is the default setting
of EIGRP. You don’t have to type it.
Question 1:
2/6
The loopback interfaces on R4 with the IP addresses of 10.4.4.4/32, 10.4.4.5/32 and
10.4.4.6/32 are not appearing in the routing table of R5. Why are the interfaces missing?
Explanation/Reference:
On R4 we see EIGRP is configured with AS 2 (router eigrp 2) while other routers are using
AS 1 (router eigrp 1). Therefore R4 cannot see other routers and vice versa.
Note: There is another version of this question but the answer is D (as R4 misses the
network 10.4.4.4 0.0.0.0 , network 10.4.4.5 0.0.0.0 and network 10.4.4.6
0.0.0.0 statements).
Question 2:
Which path does traffic take from R1 to R5?
Explanation/Reference:
For this question we have to check the routing table of R1 to find out the answer.
Use the show ip route command on R1 we will get something like this:
3/6
There are three interfaces on R5 which are Loopback0: 10.5.5.5 ; Loopback1: 10.5.5.55;
Ethernet0/0: 192.168.123.5 and all of them are advertised via 192.168.12.2 so we can
conclude traffic from R1 to R5 goes through R2 (192.168.12.2 is the IP address of S2/1
interface of R2).
Note: Maybe there is another version of this question in the exam in which the answer
should be “The traffic is equally load-balanced over R2 and R3”. Therefore please check the
show ip route output carefully to see if there are more than one route to the destination.
Question 3:
Router R6 does not form an EIGRP neighbor relationship correctly with router R1. What is
the cause for this misconfiguration?
Note: Please check the configuration of R6 carefully. If the “network 192.168.16.0” is not
missing on R6 but the “metric weights” is configured like this:
R6:
router eigrp 1
network 10.6.6.6 0.0.0.0
network 192.168.16.0
metric weights 0 0 0 1 1 1
Then you should check if R1 has the same “metric weights” or not. If not then the answer
should be “K values are mismatched”.
For your information, EIGRP K values are the scale numbers that EIGRP uses in metric
calculation . Mismatched K values can prevent neighbor relationships from being
established. The syntax of “metric weights” command is:
metric weights tos k1 k2 k3 k4 k5 (with tos is the type of service and must always be zero)
Question 4:
Study the following output taken on R1:
Explanation/Reference:
R1 does not advertise its loopback 0 (10.1.1.1) to EIGRP therefore a ping to destination
10.5.5.55 (R5) from 10.1.1.1 will not be successful because R5 does not know how to reply
to R1.
