300-410 Policy-Based Routing (PBR) — All Questions With Answers

A network engineer is troubleshooting a PBR configuration on a Cisco router. The engineer has configured a route map named 'PBR-MAP' with a match statement matching traffic from source IP 10.1.1.0/24 and a set statement to forward the traffic to next-hop 192.168.1.2. The engineer applies the route map to the incoming interface GigabitEthernet0/0 using 'ip policy route-map PBR-MAP'. However, traffic from 10.1.1.0/24 is still being forwarded using the routing table instead of the PBR next-hop. What is the most likely cause?

Question 2mediummultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from VLAN 100 (192.168.10.0/24) should be forwarded to next-hop 10.10.10.2 via a route map named 'VLAN100-PBR'. The engineer has applied the route map to interface GigabitEthernet0/0.100 (subinterface) using 'ip policy route-map VLAN100-PBR'. The engineer verifies that the route map is correctly configured with 'match ip address 100' and 'set ip next-hop 10.10.10.2', and the access list 100 matches the source subnet. However, traffic from VLAN 100 is still forwarded using the routing table. What is the most likely cause?

Question 3hardmultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from source 10.1.2.0/24 should be forwarded to next-hop 192.168.1.2. The route map 'PBR-TEST' is configured with 'match ip address 101' and 'set ip next-hop 192.168.1.2'. The engineer applies the route map to interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer notices that PBR works for most traffic, but traffic from a specific host (10.1.2.100) is not being policy-routed. The engineer checks the ACL 101 and confirms it includes 10.1.2.0/24. What is the most likely cause?

Question 4mediummultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from subnet 172.16.1.0/24 should be forwarded to next-hop 10.10.10.2. The route map 'PBR-172' is applied to interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer notices that the PBR policy is not working at all. The engineer checks the route map configuration and sees 'match ip address 110' and 'set ip next-hop 10.10.10.2'. The engineer also checks the ACL 110 and confirms it matches 172.16.1.0/24. The engineer then checks the interface configuration and sees 'ip policy route-map PBR-172' applied. What should the engineer do next to isolate the issue?

Question 5mediummultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from subnet 192.168.20.0/24 should be forwarded to next-hop 10.20.20.2. The route map 'PBR-20' is configured with 'match ip address 120' and 'set ip next-hop 10.20.20.2'. The engineer applies the route map to interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer notices that PBR works for traffic from 192.168.20.0/24, but traffic from other subnets is also being forwarded to 10.20.20.2. What is the most likely cause?

Question 6hardmultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from subnet 10.10.10.0/24 should be forwarded to next-hop 192.168.100.2. The route map 'PBR-10' is configured with 'match ip address 130' and 'set ip next-hop 192.168.100.2'. The engineer applies the route map to interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer notices that PBR is not working, and the router is dropping packets instead of forwarding them. The engineer checks the ACL 130 and confirms it matches 10.10.10.0/24. What is the most likely cause?

Question 7hardmultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from subnet 172.16.0.0/16 should be forwarded to next-hop 10.10.10.2. The route map 'PBR-172' is configured with 'match ip address 140' and 'set ip next-hop 10.10.10.2'. The engineer applies the route map to interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer notices that PBR works for traffic from 172.16.1.0/24 but not for traffic from 172.16.2.0/24. The engineer checks the ACL 140 and confirms it includes the entire 172.16.0.0/16 subnet. What is the most likely cause?

Question 8mediummultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from subnet 10.1.1.0/24 should be forwarded to next-hop 192.168.1.2. The route map 'PBR-10' is configured with 'match ip address 150' and 'set ip next-hop 192.168.1.2'. The engineer applies the route map to interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer notices that PBR is not working, and the router is using the routing table to forward traffic. The engineer checks the ACL 150 and confirms it matches 10.1.1.0/24. The engineer also checks the interface configuration and sees 'ip policy route-map PBR-10' applied. What is the most likely cause?

Question 9hardmultiple choice

A network engineer is troubleshooting PBR on a Cisco router where traffic from subnet 192.168.50.0/24 should be forwarded to next-hop 10.50.50.2. The route map 'PBR-50' is configured with 'match ip address 160' and 'set ip next-hop 10.50.50.2'. The engineer applies the route map to interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer notices that PBR works for traffic from 192.168.50.0/24, but the router is also policy-routing traffic from other subnets that should not be affected. The engineer checks the ACL 160 and confirms it only matches 192.168.50.0/24. What is the most likely cause?

Question 67hardmultiple choice

A network engineer configures PBR on a router to route traffic from subnet 10.1.1.0/24 via next-hop 192.168.1.2. The route-map uses match ip address and set ip next-hop commands. However, traffic sourced from 10.1.1.5 still follows the routing table instead of the PBR policy. What is the most likely cause?

Question 68hardmultiple choice

An engineer configures PBR with a route-map that sets the next-hop to 10.0.0.2 for traffic matching ACL 100. The route-map is applied inbound on interface GigabitEthernet0/1. Traffic from a host on that interface is forwarded via 10.0.0.2, but the engineer notices that packets with destination IP 10.0.0.2 itself are also being redirected, causing a loop. Why does this happen?

Question 69hardmultiple choice

A router is configured with PBR using a route-map that sets the next-hop to 192.168.2.1 for traffic matching ACL 101. The engineer also configures 'ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1' as a default route. Traffic that matches ACL 101 is correctly forwarded to 192.168.2.1, but traffic that does not match ACL 101 is dropped instead of using the default route. What is the most likely explanation?

Question 70hardmultiple choice

An engineer configures PBR with a route-map that sets the next-hop to 10.0.0.2 for traffic from subnet 192.168.1.0/24. The route-map is applied inbound on interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer also enables 'ip cef' globally. Traffic from 192.168.1.0/24 is not being policy-routed; instead, it follows the routing table. What is the most likely cause?

Question 71hardmultiple choice

A router is configured with PBR using a route-map that sets the next-hop to 10.0.0.2 for traffic matching ACL 100. The engineer also configures 'set ip default next-hop 10.0.0.3' in the same route-map sequence. Traffic that matches ACL 100 is forwarded to 10.0.0.2, but traffic that does not match ACL 100 is forwarded to 10.0.0.3 only if there is no route in the routing table. However, the engineer expects all unmatched traffic to go to 10.0.0.3 regardless of the routing table. What is the misunderstanding?

Question 72hardmultiple choice

An engineer configures PBR on a router to route traffic from VLAN 10 to next-hop 192.168.1.2 using a route-map. The route-map is applied inbound on the VLAN interface. The engineer also configures 'ip policy route-map' on the same interface. However, traffic from VLAN 10 is not being policy-routed; instead, it is forwarded normally. The router is running IOS-XE. What is the most likely cause?

A router is configured with PBR using a route-map that sets the next-hop to 10.0.0.2 for traffic from subnet 192.168.1.0/24. The route-map is applied inbound on interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer also configures 'ip policy route-map' on the same interface. However, the engineer notices that PBR is not working for traffic that is fragmented. What is the most likely reason?

Question 74hardmultiple choice

An engineer configures PBR on a router to route traffic from subnet 10.1.1.0/24 to next-hop 192.168.1.2. The route-map is applied inbound on interface GigabitEthernet0/0. The engineer also configures 'ip policy route-map' on the same interface. However, the engineer notices that PBR is not working for multicast traffic from that subnet. What is the most likely explanation?
