Implementing Cisco IP Routing (CCNP ROUTE, legacy) — Question 225

Your network consists of a large hub-and-spoke Frame Relay network with a CIR of 56 kb/s for each spoke. Which statement about the selection of a dynamic protocol is true?

Answer options

• A. EIGRP would be appropriate if LMI type ANSI is NOT used.
• B. EIGRP would be appropriate, because the Frame Relay spokes could be segmented into their own areas.
• C. EIGRP would be appropriate, because by default, queries are not propagated across the slow speed Frame Relay links.

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

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as EIGRP is designed to minimize the propagation of queries over slower links, which is beneficial in a Frame Relay network with limited bandwidth. Option A is incorrect because the use of LMI type does not affect EIGRP's appropriateness. Option B is misleading since EIGRP does not require spokes to be segmented into areas to function effectively.
