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

When a router receives a CSNP (Complete Sequence Number PDU) that references an older LSP (Link-State PDU) than the one in its local database, it indicates that the neighbor is missing newer information.

In response, the router sends back a PSNP (Partial Sequence Number PDU) to the neighbor, which includes a copy of the LSPs it has in its local database that the neighbor may not yet have. This helps to synchronize the link-state information between routers.

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.

In the configuration on router R1, the static route is defined with the next-hop IP address of139.120.121.1.

However, the next-hop IP address139.120.121.1does not belong to the same subnet as the directly connected interface on R1, which is172.31.1.1/30. For the static route to work properly, the next-hop IP address must be reachable via a directly connected interface, meaning it must be within the same subnet.

Therefore, this mismatch in subnet adjacency is likely causing the failure to reach the destination (139.120.121.2).
