Cisco 350-401 Practice Test 19

Question 180

A tenant has a default route inside VRF BLUE, but operations mistakenly installs a global default route and expects BLUE clients to use it. The incident evidence is: Hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Design supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy.
  2. Test connectivity using the correct VRF-qualified ping and route lookup context.
  3. Create separate VRF routing tables and bind each customer's L3 interfaces to the correct VRF.
  4. Install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The required correction is: Install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table. The underlying failure mechanism is: Global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Designing supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy would not install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table.

B:

Testing connectivity using the correct VRF-qualified ping and routing lookup context would not install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table.

C:

Creating separate VRF routing tables and bind each customer's L3 interfaces to the correct VRF would not install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table.

Question 181

A tenant has a default route inside VRF BLUE, but operations mistakenly installs a global default route and expects BLUE clients to use it. The proposed remedy is: Install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table. Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Inspect the FIB route to the outer tunnel destination and verify it resolves to a physical next hop.
  2. Use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop.
  3. Check `show ip route vrf` for each tenant and verify overlapping prefixes resolve independently.
  4. Check only the DNS service prefix is visible across the intended VRF boundary.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This test measures a different behavior: Inspect the FIB route to the outer tunnel destination and verify it resolves to a physical next hop. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop.

C:

This test measures a different behavior: Check `show ip route vrf` for each tenant and verify overlapping prefixes resolve independently. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop.

D:

This test measures a different behavior: Check only the DNS service prefix is visible across the intended VRF boundary. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop.

Question 182

A tenant has a default route inside VRF BLUE, but operations mistakenly installs a global default route and expects BLUE clients to use it. During troubleshooting: Hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally. Which underlying cause best explains the recorded behavior?

  1. The route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope.
  2. Global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table.
  3. The tunnel destination resolves through the tunnel itself, producing recursive routing.
  4. Tenant interfaces or route lookups are in the global table rather than isolated VRFs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The actual technical cause is: Global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table. It specifically explains the observation: hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally. The correcting configuration is: install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: Adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs. Here the recorded observation is: hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally. The applicable cause is: global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table.

C:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: Tunnel protocol repeatedly flaps with recursive route warnings. Here the recorded observation is: hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally. The applicable cause is: global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table.

D:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: Customer A packets unexpectedly use Customer B's 10.10.0.0/16 route. Here the recorded observation is: hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally. The applicable cause is: global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table.

Question 183

A tenant has a default route inside VRF BLUE, but operations mistakenly installs a global default route and expects BLUE clients to use it. The initial change is: Install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table. Which continuing control most directly prevents a recurrence of the documented problem: Hosts in VRF BLUE have no default route despite `show ip route` displaying 0.0.0.0/0 globally.

  1. Audit interface-to-VRF bindings and route import policies during customer onboarding.
  2. Use VRF-aware monitoring and avoid inferring tenant outages from global tests.
  3. Audit imported prefixes and deny implicit all-route leakage after policy edits.
  4. Keep VRF-qualified static routes and monitoring separate from global reachability.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The continuing protective control is: Keep VRF-qualified static routes and monitoring separate from global reachability. This addresses the underlying failure mechanism: global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table. The corresponding operational check is: use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That control reduces a separate risk: Tenant interfaces or route lookups are in the global table rather than isolated VRFs. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table. The specific required safeguard is: keep VRF-qualified static routes and monitoring separate from global reachability.

B:

That control reduces a separate risk: The diagnostic used the global table rather than the tenant VRF routing context. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table. The specific required safeguard is: keep VRF-qualified static routes and monitoring separate from global reachability.

C:

That control reduces a separate risk: The route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope. For the described design, the recurring risk arises from: global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table. The specific required safeguard is: keep VRF-qualified static routes and monitoring separate from global reachability.

Question 184

Two previously isolated enterprise VRFs need only a narrowly approved shared DNS service, not unrestricted bidirectional connectivity. The incident evidence is: Adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Apply the VRF forwarding association before re-entering the intended IPv4 address on the interface.
  2. Install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table.
  3. Design supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy.
  4. Test connectivity using the correct VRF-qualified ping and route lookup context.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The required correction is: Design supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy. The underlying failure mechanism is: The route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope. Verify success by carrying out this direct test: check only the DNS service prefix is visible across the intended VRF boundary.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Applying the VRF forwarding association would not design supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy.

B:

Installing or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table would not design supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy.

D:

Question 185

Two previously isolated enterprise VRFs need only a narrowly approved shared DNS service, not unrestricted bidirectional connectivity. The proposed remedy is: Design supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy. Which observation would most directly confirm that remedy works as intended?

  1. Check only the DNS service prefix is visible across the intended VRF boundary.
  2. Verify both the interface VRF association and the restored primary IP address.
  3. Use a VRF-specific route lookup and sourced ping to check the tenant's default next hop.
  4. Compare sourced `ping vrf RED` results and VRF-specific RIB entries.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The decisive acceptance observation is: Check only the DNS service prefix is visible across the intended VRF boundary. This tests the working mechanism, while the original incident was: adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This test measures a different behavior: Verify both the interface VRF association and the restored primary IP address. It does not establish the target outcome. For the documented fault, the direct acceptance test is: check only the DNS service prefix is visible across the intended VRF boundary.

  1. Global and VRF routing tables are distinct; the default exists in the wrong table.
  2. The route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope.
  3. Assigning VRF forwarding cleared its previous IP configuration, which was never re-entered.
  4. The diagnostic used the global table rather than the tenant VRF routing context.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The actual technical cause is: The route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope. It specifically explains the observation: adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs.

Here the recorded observation is: adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs. The applicable cause is: the route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope.

C:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: An interface loses L3 reachability immediately after a `vrf forwarding` command. Here the recorded observation is: adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs. The applicable cause is: the route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope.

D:

That diagnosis is supported by a different symptom: Global ping fails although properly sourced VRF RED applications work. Here the recorded observation is: adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs. The applicable cause is: the route-leaking policy imported more prefixes than the approved shared-service scope.

Question 187

Two previously isolated enterprise VRFs need only a narrowly approved shared DNS service, not unrestricted bidirectional connectivity. The initial change is: Design supported selective VRF route leaking with explicit import/export route targets or platform policy. Which continuing control most directly prevents a recurrence of the documented problem: Adding general inter-VRF connectivity accidentally exposes every tenant server between the VRFs.

  1. Use a staged VRF-migration checklist that reapplies addresses and tests peers.
  2. Audit imported prefixes and deny implicit all-route leakage after policy edits.
  3. Use VRF-aware monitoring and avoid inferring tenant outages from global tests.
  4. Keep VRF-qualified static routes and monitoring separate from global reachability.

Question 188

An operations engineer issues a ping from the global router context, concludes VRF RED is broken, but the tenant's source addresses exist only in RED. The incident evidence is: Global ping fails although properly sourced VRF RED applications work. Which targeted configuration or design change best addresses the failure?

  1. Test connectivity using the correct VRF-qualified ping and route lookup context.
  2. Install an underlay route to the remote GRE destination through physical transport, outside the GRE overlay.
  3. Install or verify a default route explicitly in the BLUE VRF routing table.
