“Do I Know This Already?” Quiz
The purpose of the “Do I Know This Already?” quiz is to help you decide if you need to read the entire chapter. If you intend to read the entire chapter, you do not necessarily need to answer these questions now.
The nine-question quiz, derived from the major sections in the “Foundation Topics” section, helps you determine how to spend your limited study time.
Table 5-1 outlines the major topics discussed in this chapter and the “Do I Know This Already?” quiz questions that correspond to those topics.

CAUTION The goal of self-assessment is to gauge your mastery of the topics in this chapter. If you don’t know the answer to a question or you’re only partially sure of the answer, you should mark this question as wrong for purposes of the self-assessment. Giving yourself credit for an answer you guess correctly skews your self-assessment results and might give you a false sense of security.
1.Which of the following must be true before IOS lists a route as “S” in the output of a show ip route command?
a.The IP address must be configured on an interface.
b.The router must receive a routing update from a neighboring router.
c.The ip route command must be added to the configuration.
d.The ip address command must use the special keyword.
e.The interface must be up and up.
2.Which of the following commands correctly configures a static route?
a.ip route 10.1.3.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.130.253
b.ip route 10.1.3.0 serial 0
c.ip route 10.1.3.0 /24 10.1.130.253
d.ip route 10.1.3.0 /24 serial 0

a.show ip
b.show ip protocol
c.show ip routing-protocols
d.show ip route
e.show ip route neighbor
f.show ip route received
9.What part of the output of the show ip route command identifies the metric associated with the route?

The answers to the “Do I Know This Already?” quiz appear in Appendix A. The suggested choices for your next step are as follows:
■7 or less overall score—Read the entire chapter. This includes the “Foundation Topics,” “Foundation Summary,” and “Q&A” sections.
■8 or 9 overall score—If you want more review on these topics, skip to the “Foundation Summary” section and then go to the “Q&A” section. Otherwise, move to the next chapter.
