CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 452
An engineer is configuring router R1 with an IPv6 static route for prefix 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64. The next hop must be 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1. The route must be reachable via the R1 Gigabit 0/0 interface. Which command configures the designated route?
Answer options
- A. R1(config-if)#ip route 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 GigabitEthernet 0/0
- B. R1(config)#ip route 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 GigabitEthernet 0/0
- C. R1(config-if)#ipv6 route 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1
- D. R1(config)#ipv6 route 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct command is D because it uses the proper syntax for configuring an IPv6 static route, specifying the correct prefix and next hop. Options A and B incorrectly use 'ip route' which is for IPv4 routing, and option C uses 'config-if', which is not the correct context for setting a static route.
