H12-811_V2.0 practice question 4 of 15

R1 has four static routes, each of which has a reachable next hop. Given the following static route configuration, what is the next hop of the route to 20.0.0.0/30 in R1’s routing table? [R1] ip route-static 20.0.0.0 30 10.1.1.2 [R1] ip route-static 20.0.0.0 30 10.1.2.2 preference 70 [R1] ip route-static 20.0.0.0 30 10.1.3.2 preference 50 [R1] ip route-static 20.0.0.0 30 10.1.4.2 preference 100

A: 10.1.4.2
B: 10.1.1.2
C: 10.1.2.2
D: 10.1.3.2 Correct answer
Correct Answer:
D. 10.1.3.2
Explanation

When multiple static routes are configured for the same destination network prefix, the router selects the route with the lowest preference value to install in its routing table. In this configuration, the preferences are 60 (default for 10.1.1.2), 70, 50, and 100. The route with the next hop 10.1.3.2 has the lowest preference value of 50, making it the optimal and active route.

Why Incorrect

A. The route via 10.1.4.2 has a preference of 100, which is higher than 50 and therefore not preferred.
B. The route via 10.1.1.2 uses the default preference of 60, which is higher than 50 and not preferred.
C. The route via 10.1.2.2 has a preference of 70, which is higher than 50 and therefore not preferred.

1. Huawei VRP V800R019C00 Command Reference, "IP Routing Commands > Static Route Commands > ip route-static". This document states, "If multiple static routes to the same destination are configured, the one with the highest preference (smallest preference value) is selected." It also confirms the default preference value is 60.
