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 event manager policy registered
No. Type Time Created Name 1 applet 00:01:23 UTC Mar 1 2025 EIGRP_Neighbor_Down
R1# show event manager history events
Event History: No. Time Type Name 1 00:01:30 UTC Mar 1 syslog EIGRP_Neighbor_Down
Based on this output, which statement is correct?
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 EIGRP neighbor down event has occurred once.
The output shows one registered EEM applet policy and one triggered event. The correct answer is that the EIGRP neighbor down event has occurred once.
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 EIGRP neighbor down event has occurred once.
Why this is correct
The event history shows a single entry for EIGRP_Neighbor_Down.
- ✗
The EIGRP neighbor is currently down.
Why it's wrong here
The event history does not indicate current state; it only shows past events.
- ✗
The EEM policy is disabled.
Why it's wrong here
The policy is registered and an event was triggered, so it is active.
- ✗
The EIGRP neighbor is flapping.
Why it's wrong here
Only one event is recorded, so no flapping is indicated.
Quick reference
Routing Protocol Comparison
| Protocol | Metric | Max Hops | Algorithm | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RIP v2 | Hop count | 15 | Bellman-Ford | Distance vector |
| OSPF | Cost (bandwidth) | Unlimited | Dijkstra (SPF) | Link state |
| EIGRP | Composite metric | Unlimited | DUAL | Hybrid |
| IS-IS | Cost | Unlimited | Dijkstra | Link state |
| BGP | Policy / attributes | Unlimited | Path vector | Path vector |
RIP's 15-hop limit makes it unsuitable for large networks. OSPF and EIGRP dominate modern enterprise deployments.
