The exhibit shows the fast re-route configuration on router R1, in which both R-LFA and TI-LFA have been enabled. Assume that there are multiple potential backup paths for a given prefix. Which of the following options will router R1 use?
Options:
A.
A standard LFA path that would not coincide with the path after IGP re-convergence.
B.
An R-LFA path that would not coincide with the path after IGP re-convergence.
C.
A D-LFA path that would not coincide with the path after IGP re-convergence.
D.
A D-LFA path that would coincide with the path after IGP re-convergence.
The exhibit shows that both R-LFA and TI-LFA have been enabled on router R1. R-LFA (Remote Loop-Free Alternate) is a method that is used to protect the active segment of a tunnel, and it allows the router to find a backup path that coincides with the path that will become active after IGP reconvergence. TI-LFA (Topology Independent LFA) is a method that is used to protect an end-to-end multi-segment tunnel, it allows the router to find a backup path that does not rely on the IGP topology, but on the segment routing topology.
With R-LFA and TI-LFA enabled, router R1 will use a D-LFA (Dual-Loop-Free Alternate) path, which is a combination of both R-LFA and TI-LFA, this path will coincide with the path after IGP re-convergence.
A standard LFA, R-LFA, and D-LFA which do not coincide with the path after IGP re-convergence are not the options.
Questions 5
Which of the following statements about segment routing fast re-route is FALSE?
Options:
A.
Fast re-route is a temporary fix that becomes active for a short period of time after a local network failure.
B.
Fast re-route typically protects the active segment of a tunnel, but under certain conditions it can protect an end-to-end multi-segment tunnel instead.
C.
On a Nokia 7750 SR, R-LFA and TI-LFA can be enabled independently of each other.
D.
The parameter "max-sr-frr-labels" limits the number of labels that R-LFA can add to the data packet encapsulation.
On a Nokia 7750 SR, R-LFA and TI-LFA cannot be enabled independently; they must be enabled together. The parameter "max-sr-frr-labels" limits the number of labels that R-LFA can add to the data packet encapsulation.

Which of the following statements about the operation of seamless-BFD is FALSE?
Options:
A.
Seamless-BFD responses are sent back using the LSP label stack.
B.
To be able to respond to seamless-BFD messages, a router must be configured as a reflector.
C.
A seamless-BFD template needs to be configured on the head-end of the LSP.
D.
The routing protocol (OSPF or IS-IS) is used to carry the reflector discriminator information.
Seamless-BFD is a mechanism that allows the detection of faults in MPLS LSPs more quickly by using BFD (Bidirectional Forwarding Detection) protocol. Seamless-BFD responses are sent back using the MPLS data-plane, not the LSP label stack.
