Which two statements describe PIM-SM? (Choose two)
Answer : A, D
PIM sparse mode (PIM-SM) is a multicast routing protocol that uses a pull model to deliver multicast traffic. In PIM-SM, routers with receivers send join messages to their upstream neighbors toward a rendezvous point (RP) or a source-specific tree (SPT). The RP or SPT acts as the root of a shared distribution tree for a multicast group. Traffic is only forwarded to routers that request to join the distribution tree by sending join messages. PIM-SM does not flood traffic to all routers or prune routers without receivers, as PIM dense mode does.

Referring to the exhibit, you must provide VRF Internet access over a single connection for VPN-A Site 1, which connects to PE-1.
Which two statements are correct in this scenario? (Choose two.)
Answer : A, B
In the provided exhibit, the configuration involves using a RIB (Routing Information Base) group to facilitate internet access for VPN-A Site 1 through PE-1. The goal is to provide VRF Internet access over a single connection.
1. **Understanding RIB Groups**:
- RIB groups allow for the import and export of routes between different routing tables.
- In this scenario, we have two RIBs: `inet.0` (the main routing table) and `VPN-A.inet.0` (the VRF-specific routing table).
2. **Statement Analysis**:
- **A. You must use the RIB group to move a default route, which is learned through BGP, from the inet.0 table to the VPN-A.inet.0 table.**
- Correct. To provide Internet access to VPN-A, the default route (0.0.0.0/0) learned via BGP in the `inet.0` table must be made available in the `VPN-A.inet.0` table. This is done using the RIB group to import the default route.
- **B. You do not need to use the RIB group to move interface routes from the inet.0 table to the VPN-A.inet.0 table.**
- Correct. Interface routes (connected routes) are typically directly added to both the global and the VRF routing tables without needing a RIB group. These routes are known to the VRF because the interfaces are part of the VRF configuration.
- **C. You do not need to use the RIB group default route, which is learned through BGP, from the inet.0 table to the VPN-A.inet.0 table.**
- Incorrect. As discussed, the default route needs to be imported into the VRF's routing table using a RIB group to enable Internet access for the VRF.
- **D. You must use the RIB group to move interface routes from the inet.0 table to the VPN-A.inet.0 table.**
- Incorrect. Interface routes are directly associated with the VRF interfaces and are automatically known to the VRF routing table. There is no need to use a RIB group for these routes.
**Conclusion**:
The correct answers are:
**A. You must use the RIB group to move a default route, which is learned through BGP, from the inet.0 table to the VPN-A.inet.0 table.**
**B. You do not need to use the RIB group to move interface routes from the inet.0 table to the VPN-A.inet.0 table.**

Referring to the exhibit, which two statements describe potential causes for this fault? (Choose two.)
Answer : A, D
Which two statements about IS-IS are correct? (Choose two.)
Answer : A, D
Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) is a link-state routing protocol used to move information efficiently within a computer network. It uses a series of Protocol Data Units (PDUs) to manage the network's topology and ensure consistency across all routers in the network. Specifically, Link State PDUs (LSPs), Complete Sequence Number PDUs (CSNPs), and Partial Sequence Number PDUs (PSNPs) play crucial roles in this process.
1. **PSNPs (Partial Sequence Number PDUs)**:
- **Acknowledge a received LSP**: PSNPs are used to acknowledge the receipt of LSPs. When a router receives an LSP, it sends a PSNP back to the sender to confirm that the LSP has been received.
- **Request a missing LSP**: PSNPs are also used to request missing LSPs. If a router identifies a missing LSP based on sequence numbers, it can send a PSNP to request the specific LSP from its neighbors.
2. **CSNPs (Complete Sequence Number PDUs)**:
- **Summarize LSPs**: CSNPs are used to summarize all the LSPs known to a router. They are typically sent at regular intervals to provide a complete list of LSPs in a database. They are not used to acknowledge or request specific LSPs but provide an overview of all LSPs for database synchronization.
Based on this understanding, let's evaluate the statements:
- **A. PSNPs are used to acknowledge a received LSP.**
- Correct. PSNPs serve the purpose of acknowledging LSPs received from other routers.
- **B. CSNPs are used to acknowledge a received LSP.**
- Incorrect. CSNPs are not used for acknowledging LSPs; they are used to provide a summary of all LSPs.
- **C. CSNPs are used to request a missing LSP.**
- Incorrect. CSNPs are not used to request missing LSPs; this is the role of PSNPs.
- **D. PSNPs are used to request a missing LSP.**
- Correct. PSNPs are used to request specific missing LSPs when a router detects that it is missing information.
**Conclusion**:
The correct statements about IS-IS are:
**A. PSNPs are used to acknowledge a received LSP.**
**D. PSNPs are used to request a missing LSP.**
**Reference**:

- RFC 1195, Use of OSI IS-IS for Routing in TCP/IP and Dual Environments: [RFC 1195](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1195) which details the operation and use of IS-IS, including the roles of PSNPs and CSNPs.
Which two statements are correct about the customer interface in an LDP-signaled pseudowire? (Choose two)
Answer : C, D
The customer interface in an LDP-signaled pseudowire is the interface on the PE router that connects to the CE device. An LDP-signaled pseudowire is a type of Layer 2 circuit that uses LDP to establish a point-to-point connection between two PE routers over an MPLS network. The customer interface can have different encapsulation types depending on the type of traffic that is carried over the pseudowire. The encapsulation types are ethernet-ccc, vlan-ccc, extended-vlan-ccc, atm-ccc, frame-relay-ccc, ppp-ccc, cisco-hdlc-ccc, and tcc-ccc. Depending on the encapsulation type, the customer interface can accept or reject tagged or untagged frames in the data plane, and include or exclude VLAN tags in the control plane LDP advertisement. The following table summarizes the behavior of different encapsulation types:
Exhibit
CE-1 must advertise ten subnets to PE-1 using BGP Once CE-1 starts advertising the subnets to PE-1, the BGP peering state changes to Active.
Referring to the CLI output shown in the exhibit, which statement is correct?
Answer : C
Analyzing the Exhibit and Understanding the Issue
The exhibit shows BGP configurations on CE-1 and PE-1, which are connected via EBGP.
CE-1 (Customer Edge)
Uses AS 64511 and establishes an EBGP session with PE-1 (AS 65550).
Configured to export 10 static routes (192.168.1.0/24 - 192.168.10.0/24) using the static-to-bgp policy.
PE-1 (Provider Edge)
Uses AS 65550 and is peering with CE-1 (AS 64511).
Configured with a prefix-limit of 5 on received routes from CE-1.
Teardown enabled, meaning if more than 5 prefixes are received, the BGP session is shut down.
Identifying the Problem
CE-1 is correctly configured with peer AS 65550, so Option B ('CE-1 is configured with an incorrect peer AS') is incorrect .
CE-1 is advertising exactly 10 static routes (as per policy).
PE-1 has a prefix-limit maximum 5 with teardown enabled.
This means that when CE-1 advertises more than 5 prefixes, PE-1 shuts down the BGP session.
BGP moves to the 'Active' state, indicating that the session has been disrupted and PE-1 is trying to re-establish the connection.
CE-1 is reachable since the session was initially established before the limit was exceeded, so Option D ('CE-1 is unreachable') is incorrect .
CE-1 is not advertising its entire routing table, only the static prefixes listed in the policy, so Option A ('CE-1 is advertising its entire routing table') is incorrect .
Correct Answer
C. The prefix limit has been reached on PE-1
Verification from Juniper Documentation
Juniper BGP Prefix Limit Documentation confirms that exceeding the prefix limit with teardown causes the BGP session to go into 'Active' state.
Juniper Troubleshooting Guide for BGP Peering Issues states that when a BGP session reaches the prefix limit and has teardown enabled, the session is terminated.
