4A0-103 practice question 6 of 30

You wish to advertise LDP labels for all local networks; which is the most effective policy statement to use?

Full set: 249 questions
Answer options
A: from prefix-list direct
B: match local
C: from protocol direct Correct answer
D: match protocol direct
E: from protocol local
Correct Answer:
C. from protocol direct
Explanation

To advertise LDP labels for local networks, a policy must be configured to export routes into LDP. In Nokia SR OS, directly connected subnets are learned via the 'direct' protocol. An export policy statement from protocol direct will match all these routes. This allows LDP to assign a Forwarding Equivalence Class (FEC) and advertise a corresponding label for each connected network, which is the most effective and standard method to achieve the desired outcome.

Why Incorrect

A. from prefix-list direct: This matches a prefix list named "direct", not routes from the direct protocol.
B. match local: This is not a valid top-level policy statement syntax for selecting routes based on their origin protocol.
D. match protocol direct: This is also invalid syntax; from is the correct keyword to specify the source protocol in a policy entry.
E. from protocol local: This matches the router's own /32 interface addresses, not the entire subnets of the connected networks.
