4A0-112 Exam Dumps : Nokia IS-IS Routing Protocol

From R1 to R7: The path will be R1 → R2 → R4 → R6 → R7 because this path has the least cumulative metric of 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 40.

From R7 to R1: The reverse path will follow R7 → R6 → R4 → R2 → R1 because it is the shortest return path with the same metrics.

ARP for IPv4 and Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) for IPv6 are both used to map a device's IP address to its MAC address. This is essential for communication within a local network.

ARP is used in IPv4 networks, and NDP performs a similar function in IPv6 networks, ensuring devices can communicate effectively on the same network segment.

BFD (Bidirectional Forwarding Detection)is used to detect link failures quickly and helps improve convergence time in link-state routing protocols. The BFD session between routers R1 and R3 allows them to detect the failure of the link between them more quickly than the regular routing protocol hello timers. Thetransmit interval,receive interval, andmultiplier settingsdetermine how fast BFD detects a failure and triggers the routing protocol to converge, which directly impacts the convergence time.
