300-410 Practice Question: Which TWO statements about route-maps used for…

Which TWO statements about route-maps used for route filtering are true? (Choose TWO.)

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

A route-map with a 'deny' statement will drop the route if the match conditions are met.

Route-maps permit or deny routes based on match conditions, and an implicit deny all exists at the end. If no match is found, the route is denied. The sequence number determines the order of evaluation; lower numbers are processed first. The 'continue' clause allows jumping to a different sequence, not the next sequence automatically. A route-map can be used with multiple protocols, but it is not protocol-specific by default.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • A route-map with a 'deny' statement will drop the route if the match conditions are met.

    Why this is correct

    A deny statement explicitly denies the route when the match conditions are satisfied.

  • If a route does not match any sequence in a route-map, it is implicitly denied.

    Why this is correct

    Route-maps have an implicit deny all at the end; unmatched routes are denied.

  • The 'continue' clause forces the route-map to evaluate the next sequence number.

    Why it's wrong here

    The 'continue' clause jumps to a specified sequence number, not necessarily the next one.

  • Route-maps can only be applied to BGP neighbors.

    Why it's wrong here

    Route-maps can be applied to many protocols, including RIP, EIGRP, OSPF (via redistribution), and PBR.

  • The sequence numbers in a route-map are evaluated in descending order.

    Why it's wrong here

    Sequence numbers are evaluated in ascending order (lowest first).
