Question 110 of 2,152
Route Maps and Route FilteringmediumDrag & DropObjective-mapped

Quick Answer

The correct order begins with displaying the route-map configuration and statistics using show route-map, then checking which route-map is applied to interfaces or protocols with show ip policy, followed by verifying filtered prefixes in the BGP table via show ip bgp, confirming the impact on routing table entries with show ip route, and finally testing end-to-end connectivity with ping or traceroute. This sequence is correct because verifying route-maps operational state order requires a logical progression from confirming the policy definition itself, to its application point, then to its effect on BGP prefixes, next to the resulting routing table changes, and ultimately to functional connectivity validation. On the Cisco CCNP ENARSI 300-410 exam, this drag-and-drop task tests your understanding of systematic troubleshooting, and a common trap is jumping to the ping test too early without first verifying the route-map is actually filtering as intended. A helpful memory tip is to think "Policy, Application, BGP, Route, Ping"—the acronym PABRP can remind you to start with the policy definition and end with connectivity verification.

  • Clue: "first"

    Why it matters: Order matters here. You are being tested on which action comes before the others — not which action is generally useful.

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

Display route-map configuration with show route-map

First, display the route-map configuration and statistics with show route-map. Second, check which route-map is applied to interfaces or routing protocols using show ip policy. Third, verify the filtered prefixes in the BGP table with show ip bgp. Fourth, confirm the impact on routing table entries with show ip route. Finally, test connectivity end-to-end using ping or traceroute.

Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Common exam traps

Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword

Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.

Detailed technical explanation

How to think about this question

This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.

KKey Concepts to Remember

  • Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
  • Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
  • Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
  • Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.

TExam Day Tips

  • Underline the problem statement mentally.
  • Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
  • Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.

Key takeaway

Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

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. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Real exam questions reward reading the full scenario before eliminating options, because the constraint defines which answer fits.
