Quick Answer
The correct order begins with entering global configuration mode, then configuring the interface, enabling IPv6 on the interface, applying uRPF strict mode, and finally verifying with show ipv6 interface. This sequence is critical because uRPF strict mode requires the interface to be fully IPv6-enabled and operational before the verification command can confirm that incoming packets are being checked against the routing table for a matching source address and interface. On the Cisco CCNP ENARSI 300-410 exam, this drag-and-drop task tests your understanding that uRPF strict mode must be applied after IPv6 is enabled on the interface, not before—a common trap is attempting to apply the command on a non-IPv6 interface, which will be rejected. Remember that verification is always the last step, as show ipv6 interface displays the uRPF status per interface. A helpful memory tip is “G, I, E, U, V”—Global config, Interface, Enable IPv6, uRPF strict, Verify.
300-410 IPv6 Traffic Filtering and uRPF Practice Question
This 300-410 practice question tests your understanding of ipv6 traffic filtering and urpf. Examine the command output carefully: the correct answer depends on what the output actually shows, not on general recall alone. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.

Correct answer & explanation
Enter global configuration mode
The correct order begins with entering global configuration mode, then configuring the interface, enabling IPv6 on the interface, applying uRPF strict mode, and finally verifying the configuration with a show command.
Key principle: Authentication proves identity; authorization controls what that identity can do after login. Both must work for full privileged access.
Common exam traps
Common exam trap: authentication is not authorization
Logging in proves the user can authenticate. It does not automatically mean the user is allowed to enter privileged or configuration mode. Watch for AAA authorization, privilege level and command authorization details.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
This kind of question is testing the difference between identity and permission. A user may successfully log in to a router because authentication is working, but still fail to enter configuration mode because authorization is missing, misconfigured or mapped to a lower privilege level.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Authentication checks who the user is.
- Authorization controls what the user is allowed to do after login.
- Privilege levels affect access to EXEC and configuration commands.
- AAA, TACACS+ and RADIUS can separate login success from command access.
TExam Day Tips
- Do not assume successful login means full administrative access.
- Look for words such as cannot enter configuration mode, privilege level, authorization or command access.
- Separate login problems from permission problems before choosing the answer.
Key takeaway
Authentication proves identity; authorization controls what that identity can do after login. Both must work for full privileged access.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A practitioner preparing for the 300-410 exam encounters this exact type of scenario on the job. The correct answer here is not the most general option — it is the best answer for the specific constraint described. Authentication proves identity; authorization controls what that identity can do after login. Both must work for full privileged access. Real exam questions reward reading the full scenario before eliminating options, because the constraint defines which answer fits.
What to study next
Got this wrong? Here's your next step.
Review Cisco AAA concepts — authentication, authorization, and accounting. Study privilege levels (0–15), command authorization under TACACS+, and how RADIUS differs. Then practise related 300-410 questions on access control and AAA configuration.
