A network engineer runs the following command on Router R1:
R1# show ipv6 interface gigabitethernet 0/0
GigabitEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up IPv6 is enabled, link-local address is FE80::1 Global unicast address(es): 2001:DB8:1:1::1, subnet is 2001:DB8:1:1::/64 Joined group address(es): FF02::1 FF02::2 ICMP redirects are enabled ICMP unreachables are enabled ND DAD is enabled, number of DAD attempts: 1 ND reachable time is 30000 milliseconds ND advertised reachable time is 0 milliseconds ND advertised retransmit interval is 1000 milliseconds ND router advertisements are sent every 200 seconds ND router advertisements live for 1800 seconds Hosts use stateless autoconfig for addresses. IPv6 uRPF: strict mode (drop invalid packets) Inbound access list: FILTER-IPv6
Based on this output, which two features are configured on this interface?
⚠ Common exam trap
Cisco often tests the distinction between strict and loose uRPF modes, and the trap here is that candidates may overlook the 'Inbound access list' line and assume the ACL is outbound, or confuse the uRPF mode with the ACL direction.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
uRPF in strict mode and inbound IPv6 ACL
The output shows 'IPv6 uRPF: strict mode (drop invalid packets)' and 'Inbound access list: FILTER-IPv6', confirming that unicast Reverse Path Forwarding in strict mode and an inbound IPv6 ACL are both configured on the interface. Strict uRPF verifies that the source address of incoming packets has a matching route in the FIB pointing back to the same interface, dropping packets that fail this check. The inbound ACL filters traffic before any routing decision, as indicated by the 'Inbound access list' line.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
uRPF in strict mode and inbound IPv6 ACL
Why this is correct
Both are clearly shown in the output.
- ✗
uRPF in loose mode and outbound IPv6 ACL
Why it's wrong here
uRPF is strict, and the ACL is inbound.
- ✗
uRPF disabled and inbound IPv6 ACL
Why it's wrong here
uRPF is enabled.
- ✗
uRPF in strict mode and outbound IPv6 ACL
Why it's wrong here
The ACL is inbound.
