CCNA Network Infrastructure and Connectivity Practice Question
Drag and drop the following steps into the correct order to configure an IPv4 static address on a Windows host, generate an IPv6 EUI-64 address on a Cisco router, verify the router's IPv6 EUI-64 address, and confirm connectivity from the Windows host.
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often confuse the order of configuration and verification steps. Remember that configuration always comes before verification, and the final step is always a connectivity test from the end host.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Set static IPv4 address on Windows host
The correct order is: first set a static IPv4 address on the Windows host to establish its network settings, then configure the IPv6 EUI-64 address on the Cisco router to enable IPv6, then verify the generated EUI-64 address on the router to ensure correct configuration, and finally confirm connectivity from the Windows host to the router to validate end-to-end communication. This sequence logically progresses from configuration to verification to testing.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Set static IPv4 address on Windows host
Why this is correct
This is the first step because the Windows host must have a static IPv4 address before any IPv6 configuration can be verified. The IPv4 address is used for basic connectivity and management access.
- ✓
Configure IPv6 EUI-64 address on Cisco router
Why this is correct
This is incorrect because the IPv6 EUI-64 address should be configured after the static IPv4 address on Windows, but before verification steps. However, this option is placed as the first step, which is wrong.
- ✓
Verify IPv6 EUI-64 address on Cisco router
Why this is correct
This is incorrect because verification should occur after configuration, not before. The correct order is to configure the IPv6 address first, then verify it.
- ✓
Confirm connectivity from Windows host
Why this is correct
This is incorrect because the final step should be confirming connectivity from the Windows host, but it is placed as the second step here. The correct order is to verify on the router first, then confirm from Windows.
