And today's poser is ....

Q38. You are the administrator for a Windows 2000 network. Currently, your network consists of a Windows 2000 Server computer and 20 Windows 2000 Professional client computers. The server and client computers are on a single subnet.

Because of company growth, you decide to add a second subnet for 10 new Windows 2000 Professional computers. Your company purchases a Windows 2000 Server computer to serve as the router between the two subnets.

Currently, the network has a 10 Mbps Ethernet backbone, and traffic on the network is at an all-time high. You want to upgrade to a 100 Mbps Ethernet network, but the company's budget does not allow it at this time.

You decide to implement RIP version 2 on the new Windows 2000 Server computer. What is one reason for making this decision?

A. To ensure the use of broadcasts in the routing process.

B. To ensure route tags are not used in the routing process.

C. To ensure the subnet mask is not sent in the routing process.

D. To ensure broadcasts are not used in the routing process.

Good Luck .... see you tomorrow for the answer!!

Difficult one. I think I choose this one.

A. To ensure the use of broadcasts in the routing process.

Well, since RIPv2 is a classless routing protocol the SM is sent with routing updates due to the fact that it does not automatically summarize at the natural classful boundary, so that cannot be a valid answer (and why would you care anyway??? This is a single router environment. Why would you want broadcasts added to your network, so A is out. Not sure what route tags are. So, D would be the only sensible answer.

Gotta be D. You set up a second subnet for the new computers, more than likely to increase productivity. RipV2 allows you to cut down on the broadcast traffic, meaning more bandwidth availability.

And the answer is ....

Correct Answers: D

A Windows 2000 computer running Routing and Remote Access is known as a Windows 2000 Router. RIP for IP is the primary routing protocol that is used in small to medium IP internetworks. OSPF is a routing protocol used in large IP internetworks. IP packet filtering is a way to filter the packets received by the router.

RIP version 1 uses broadcasts. The only way to ensure that broadcasts are not used is to use RIP version 2. RIP version 2 is easy to implement and has a large installed base. It is designed for small and medium-sized IP internetworks.

A routing tag is used to mark specific routes for administrative purposes. They do not affect the routing process. Sending the subnet mask will not affect the routing process.
