Implementing Cisco IP Routing (CCNP ROUTE, legacy) — Question 155

A network administrator is managing a hub-and-spoke network with EIGRP routing that has been enabled. The hub router is trying to query a remote router.
However, delays are occurring that are caused by certain paths being stuck in active (SIA). How should the administrator configure EIGRP in order to limit the scope of the query range and prevent SIA from occurring?

Answer options

• A. Configure the hub router with a scope limit of 1.
• B. Configure the remote router with a scope limit of 1.
• C. Configure the hub to indicate that the remote router is a stub router.
• D. Configure the hub and remote router as stub routers.
• E. Configure the remote router as a stub router.

Correct answer: S, I, A, E, I, G, R, P

Explanation

The correct answer is E: Configuring the remote router as a stub router limits the query scope and helps prevent SIA by reducing the number of queries sent to that router. Options A and B are incorrect because they do not address the root cause of the SIA problem effectively. Option C is also incorrect as it does not limit the query range. Option D, while it could help, is not necessary as only the remote router needs to be configured as a stub for this scenario.
