Which two statements about VRF route leaking are true? (Choose two.)
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
✓
Route leaking between VRFs can be achieved by configuring static routes with the 'global' keyword.
Correct: Route leaking can be done using static routes or BGP with import/export maps. Incorrect: Route leaking does not merge routing tables; VRF-lite does not inherently support it; it does not require MPLS; it is not automatic.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Route leaking between VRFs can be achieved by configuring static routes with the 'global' keyword.
Why this is correct
Correct because 'ip route vrf A X.X.X.X Y.Y.Y.Y global' leaks a route to the global table.
- ✓
BGP can be used to leak routes between VRFs by using import and export route-targets.
Why this is correct
Correct because BGP with VRF address-families and route-target import/export enables controlled leaking.
- ✗
Route leaking merges the routing tables of two VRFs into one.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect because leaking only shares specific routes, not full tables.
- ✗
VRF-lite automatically supports route leaking without any additional configuration.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect because VRF-lite requires explicit configuration for route leaking.
- ✗
Route leaking requires MPLS to be enabled.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect because route leaking can be done with static routes or BGP without MPLS.
