Actual exam question from Cisco's 200-301
Question #: 458
Topic #: 1
[All 200-301 Questions]

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?

  • 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

Selected Answer: D
C is incorrect because the command is entered in the interface R1(config-if). The default route must be entered in the glocal config. Making D the correct answer.

Selected Answer: D
D is correct because: Static routes are set in Global Configuration Mode, not interface mode. When you configure a static route, you're telling the router's global routing table how to reach a specific network, this affects the overall routing behavior of the device, not just one interface. Why not in Interface Mode? Interface mode is used to configure settings specific to an interface (e.g., IP address, shutdown, bandwidth). Static routing impacts how the router forwards packets globally, so it must be configured in global configuration mode.

The correct answer is not an option. you must specify the following R1(config)#ipv6 route 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 GigabitEthernet 0/0 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1

Tested in Packet Tracer, you can not create a route from the config-if menu, therefore D is correct

The part about the interface is entirely misdirection. The primary focus is on the next hop, sending all traffic for that prefix out of G0/0 does not ensure the next hop will be 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1

I think they put the G0/0 interface in there to throw people off. I was taught the command is Ipv6 route destination ( 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001) prefix length ( /64) next-hop (2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1), so yea D is correct

C must be wrong, cause who tell you the R1(config-if) must be the interface G0/0?

WHY NOT B, IT'S CONFIRUED IN GLOBAL CONFIG MODE, IT USED DESTINATION IP AND EXIT INTEREFACE . PLEASE EXPLAIN SOMEONE

ChatGPT: Here's how you would configure the IPv6 static route in global configuration mode: Enter global configuration mode: R1# configure terminal Add the IPv6 static route using the ipv6 route command: R1(config)# ipv6 route 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1 Gigabit0/0 Exit configuration mode and save the configuration: R1(config)# end R1# write memory This will add the specified IPv6 static route to the routing table, and the router will forward packets for the destination prefix 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 to the next hop address 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1 via the Gigabit0/0 interface.

In Packet Tracer, as with most Cisco routers, the ipv6 route command should be configured in global configuration mode. This command is used to add an IPv6 static route in the routing table of the router, so it should be applied in the global context to affect the entire router's behavior.

Selected Answer: C
It's an ipv6 address and the Answer says this : "The route must be reachable via the R1 Gigabit 0/0 interface." Then then you need to ingres the comand on G0/0 interface or in global config but adding G0/0 . C is correct.

shouldn't be R1(config)#ipv6 route 2019:C15C:0CAF:E001::/64 g0/1 2019:C15C:0CAF:E002::1 ?

A fully specified route would be better, considering the formatting of the question but I suppose the one we were given is the next best, especially considering that the rest of the asnwers are blatantly wrong.

Because C shows the command being entered on an interface (config-if).

C is also valid. Global configuration mode commands (ipv6 route) can be given in interface configuration mode (but not the other way around). I doubt that at the exam they will ask us to choose between exactly these correct options, probably the question here is defective.

nope, static route must be configure in global configuration mode. Answer is D which is definietly reachable by G0/0 interface.
