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
✓
All routes are advertised to 10.1.1.2; the 192.168.0.0/24 route has MED 100, others have no MED.
The route-map SET-MED has two sequences. Sequence 10 matches prefix-list LOOPBACKS (192.168.0.0/24) and sets MED to 100. Sequence 20 permits everything else without setting MED, so other routes are advertised with their original MED.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Only the 192.168.0.0/24 route is advertised to 10.1.1.2, with MED 100.
Why it's wrong here
Sequence 20 permits all other routes, so they are also advertised.
- ✓
All routes are advertised to 10.1.1.2; the 192.168.0.0/24 route has MED 100, others have no MED.
Why this is correct
Sequence 10 matches and sets MED 100 for 192.168.0.0/24; sequence 20 permits all other routes without modifying MED.
- ✗
All routes are advertised with MED 100 because the route-map is applied outbound.
Why it's wrong here
Only matched routes in sequence 10 get MED 100; sequence 20 does not set MED.
- ✗
Only the 192.168.0.0/24 route is advertised with no MED because the set metric is ignored.
Why it's wrong here
The set metric command is valid and applied to matched routes.
