Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services (ENARSI) — Question 550

What is the use of IPv6 snooping?

Answer options

• A. captures IPv6 routing protocol packets to analyze
• B. requires an external IPv6 packet analyzer
• C. required for the operation of IPv6 RA Guard
• D. captures any type of user traffic to create a binding table

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because IPv6 snooping is responsible for capturing user traffic to create a binding table that associates MAC addresses with IP addresses. Option A is incorrect as it refers specifically to routing protocol packets, while B suggests a dependency on an external tool, which is not the primary function of snooping. Option C, while related to security, does not directly describe the main purpose of IPv6 snooping.
