QuestionQ348

IP Connectivity

An engineer needs to configure a core router with a floating static default route to the backup router at 10.200.0.2.

Which command satisfies the requirement?

  • A ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.200.0.2 1
  • B ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.200.0.2 10
  • C ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.200.0.2
  • D ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.200.0.2 floating
Explanation

A floating static route is a backup static route that has a higher administrative distance than the preferred route, so it is used only when the primary route is no longer available. For a default route to next hop 10.200.0.2, the correct Cisco IOS syntax is ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.200.0.2 10, where 10 makes the route float above lower-distance primary routes.
