[All H12-821_V1.0 Questions]

On the OSPF network shown in the figure, R1, R2, and R3 run OSPF, and R1 advertises four VPN routes to OSPF. A filter-policy needs to achieve the following goal: R1's and R3's routing tables contain the routes to 192.168.3.0/24, but R2's routing table does not. Which of the following filter-policies cannot meet this requirement?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Goal Analysis:

Requirement:

The route to 192.168.3.0/24 must exist in R1's and R3's routing tables.

The route must not exist in R2's routing table.

This requires filtering to ensure the route is either:

Blocked on R2's routing table (via filtering on R2), or

Blocked before it is advertised to R2.

Analysis of Each Option:

Option A (Filter-policy on R2 for filtering received routes):

Applying a filter-policy on R2 to filter received routes will block the route from entering R2's routing table but still allow it to propagate to R3.

This meets the requirement.

Option B (Filter-policy on R2 for filtering the routes to be advertised):

Blocking the advertisement of routes from R2 to other routers does not affect the routes received by R2 itself.

This does not meet the requirement but does not affect the propagation to R3.

This is valid if the received route is blocked.

Option C (Filter-policy on R1 for filtering the routes to be imported):

If the route is filtered on R1 during the import phase, the route will not exist in R1's routing table and thus cannot be advertised to either R2 or R3.

This fails to meet the requirement because the route must exist in R1's and R3's routing tables.

Option D (Filter-policy on R1 for filtering the imported routes to be advertised):

Filtering routes on R1 before advertising to R2 will prevent R2 from receiving the route but allow R1 to advertise the route to R3.

This meets the requirement.

Correct Option:

C (Filter-policy on R1 for filtering the routes to be imported): This will prevent the route from existing in both R1 and R3, violating the stated requirement.

Option B all the way! It's like hiding the cookies from the cookie monster - you gotta keep them out of sight, am I right?

Yeah, just like hiding cookies from the cookie monster, we need to filter the routes to be advertised on R2.

Yeah, just like hiding cookies from the cookie monster. Can't let R2 see those routes to 192.168.3.0/24.

I agree, option B seems like the best choice to keep those routes hidden from R2.

I agree with Craig. So, the correct answer should be C.

But if R1 filters the routes to be imported, then R2's routing table won't have the route to 192.168.3.0/24.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'd better double-check the topology and requirements to make sure I'm not missing anything. Maybe I should ask the teacher for a hint.

I'm not sure about this one. Option A could also work, but it might be more complicated to set up. Option B seems like the simplest solution.

Option B seems like the right choice here. If we need to prevent R2 from seeing the 192.168.3.0/24 routes, then we have to filter the routes being advertised from R1 to R2.

Yes, that makes sense. By applying a filter-policy on R2 for filtering the routes to be advertised, we can achieve the goal of not having R2 see the 192.168.3.0/24 routes.
