IP Static and Dynamic Routing
Which IPv4 static route statement is true? o The destination network is identified using the network address and wildcard mask o The *distance* keyword is used to create a fully specified static route. o The source network is identified using the network address and wildcard mask. o Using the exit interface only is common in a point-to-point configuration.

what are the primary uses of static routes?
- ease of routing table maintenance in smaller networks - routing to a from a stub network - accessing a single default route
what are the disadvantages of dynamic routing?
- more complex to implement - less secure - route depends on current topology - requires additional CPU, RAM, and link bandwidth

- not easy to implement in large networks - managing can be time consuming - static route cannot reroute traffic if a link fails

A network administrator uses the command ip route 172.18.0.0 255.255.0.0 S0/0/1 to configure a floating static route on a router. That route will function as a backup route to reach the EIGRP learned network 172.18.0.0/16. After this configuration, the EIGRP route is removed from the routing table even though EIGRP is still functioning properly. Why is the static route not functioning as intended?
the administrative distance value is not high enough on the static route
what is a fully specified static route?
the next hop IP address and exit interface are specified
Why would a floating static route be configured with an administrative distance that is higher than the administrative distance of a dynamic routing protocol that is running on the same router? o to be the priority route in the routing table o to load-balance the traffic o to be used as a backup route o to act as a gateway of last resort
to be used as a backup route

to provide a route to forward packets for which there is no route in the routing table
