300-410 Practice Question: Runs the following command on Router R1: R1# show…
A network engineer runs the following command on Router R1:
R1# show ip vrf CUSTOMER
Name Default RD Interfaces CUSTOMER 65001:100 Gi0/0.100 Gi0/1.100
Based on this output, which statement is correct?
⚠ Common exam trap
Cisco often tests the distinction between VRF configuration output and routing information; the trap here is that candidates may assume a VRF is inactive or misconfigured because no routes are shown, when in fact 'show ip vrf' only displays the VRF name, RD, and interface assignments.
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
✓
The VRF CUSTOMER is configured with two subinterfaces.
The output of 'show ip vrf CUSTOMER' displays the VRF name, its default route distinguisher (RD) of 65001:100, and the interfaces assigned to it. The interfaces listed are Gi0/0.100 and Gi0/1.100, which are both subinterfaces (indicated by the .100 suffix). Therefore, the VRF CUSTOMER is correctly configured with two subinterfaces.
