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 NHRP holdtime is too short, causing frequent re-registrations.
The output shows NHRP cache entries for remote networks. The expire time is decreasing, indicating these are dynamic entries learned via NHRP. The problem is that the NHRP holdtime is set to 2 minutes (120 seconds), as seen from the expire time starting at 2 minutes. This is a short holdtime that may cause frequent re-registrations.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
The NHRP holdtime is too short, causing frequent re-registrations.
Why this is correct
Expire time of 2 minutes indicates a holdtime of 120 seconds, which is low.
- ✗
The NHRP entries are static and will not expire.
Why it's wrong here
Type is dynamic, not static.
- ✗
The tunnel interface is down.
Why it's wrong here
Entries are present and created recently, tunnel is up.
- ✗
The NBMA addresses are incorrect.
Why it's wrong here
NBMA addresses are shown and match expected spoke addresses.
