The correct action to complete the configuration for connecting two offices via an MPLS L3 VPN is option A. This involves configuring the network 172.16.10.0 and using the redistribute-internal static commands under the BGP address family for Customer_A in the global BGP configuration on R1. In an MPLS L3 VPN, the provider edge (PE) router, which is R1 in this scenario, redistributes customer routes into BGP. The PE router then advertises these routes to other PE routers within the MPLS network using MP-BGP, allowing for the establishment of the VPN.

Router R1 establishes TCP connections that are authenticated with an MD5 password. In the context of BGP (Border Gateway Protocol), TCP is used for establishing connections, and MD5 passwords can be used for authentication to enhance security.

To prevent access from spoofed addresses to the LAN, the engineer should enable Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (uRPF). uRPF checks the reachability of the source address in packets being forwarded, which helps mitigate issues caused by malformed or forged IP source addresses.

• Option A is correct because it enables uRPF on interface FA0/0 and verifies that the source address is reachable via the outgoing interface, which is essential when the routing is symmetric.
• Option C is also correct as it enables uRPF on interface FA0/1 and allows the source address to be reachable via any interface, accommodating environments with asymmetric routing.

The REST API script in the exhibit is used to configure a VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding) instance. In the script,  defines a tenant named “customer”, and  creates a VRF named “customervrf” within that tenant. A VRF allows multiple instances of a routing table to co-exist within the same router at the same time, enabling network paths to be segmented without requiring multiple routers. References: Implementing and Operating Cisco Service Provider Network Core Technologies source documents or study guide.

In an EVPN operation, the PE (Provider Edge) router determines and advertises Ethernet segment reachability by discovering remote ESIs (Ethernet Segment Identifiers) and determining their redundancy mode (all-active or single-active). This is crucial in multihoming scenarios where the PE needs to auto-discover remote PEs and the corresponding redundancy mode. In case of segment failures, PEs withdraw the routes used at this stage to trigger fast convergence by signaling a MAC mass withdrawal on remote PEs3.

The issue of the OSPF domain receiving only the 172.17.1.0/24 route and not the default route 0.0.0.0/0 can be resolved by configuring OSPF to propagate default routes. Let’s take a look at the options:

• Option A: The configuration includes the following commands:
• router ospf 1
• default-information originate
• end

This configuration generates a default route into the OSPF domain, which is missing in this scenario.

The command channel-group 1 mode desirable configures the switch port to actively send PAgP packets to negotiate forming an EtherChannel. PAgP is a Cisco-proprietary protocol used in the automatic creation of EtherChannel links. When set to ‘desirable’, the port actively attempts to form an EtherChannel, which means it sends PAgP packets without waiting for the connected peer to initiate the negotiation.

The correct configuration for PE1 to connect AS 200 of the service provider with AS 100 of enterprise ABC using BGP, considering the VRF RT 100:10 is already configured, would involve setting up BGP with the correct neighbor and route distinguisher settings. Option C is likely the correct choice as it specifies the BGP neighbor to be within the enterprise ABC’s AS 100 and includes the address family configuration necessary for VRF-aware BGP sessions. References := The Implementing and Operating Cisco Service Provider Network Core Technologies (SPCOR) course materials provide detailed instructions on configuring BGP in a service provider environment, including the use of VRFs and route distinguishers. For more information, please refer to the official Cisco documentation and course materials related to SPCOR1.
