Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
R1 is advertising two routes to neighbor 10.1.1.2, both originated locally.
The show bgp neighbors advertised-routes command shows routes that R1 is advertising to neighbor 10.1.1.2. The output lists two prefixes: 10.0.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24. The next hop of 0.0.0.0 indicates these are locally originated routes (e.g., via network statement or redistribution).
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
R1 is receiving two routes from neighbor 10.1.1.2.
Why it's wrong here
This command shows routes advertised to the neighbor, not received.
- ✓
R1 is advertising two routes to neighbor 10.1.1.2, both originated locally.
Why this is correct
The next hop 0.0.0.0 indicates local origin, and the output shows two prefixes.
- ✗
R1 is advertising two routes, but one is suppressed due to dampening.
Why it's wrong here
No 's' status code is shown; both routes are valid and best.
- ✗
R1 is advertising two routes, but the neighbor is not receiving them due to filtering.
Why it's wrong here
The command only shows what R1 is sending; it does not indicate whether the neighbor receives them.
