FEC (Forwarding Equivalence Class) in MPLS is a group of packets that are forwarded in the same manner. MPLS can classify packets into FECs based on factors such as:

Destination IP address

Source address

CoS (Class of Service)

Application type

However, Fragment Offset, which is part of the IP header used for IP fragmentation, is not used in FEC classification. Fragment offset is more relevant to how IP packets are reconstructed and not suitable or used as a classification standard for forwarding decisions in MPLS.

Exact Extract - Huawei HCIE-Datacom V1.0 MPLS Chapter:

“FEC classification may be based on various parameters including destination address, source address, and even CoS values. However, fragment offset is not used as an FEC criterion, as MPLS forwarding occurs before IP reassembly.”

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

In large- and medium-sized campus networks,Multi-mode authenticationis commonly used for PCs connected to IP phones. This is because multi-mode authentication allows:

Multiple authentication methods on the same interface,such as MAC address authentication for the IP phone and802.1X authentication for the PC.

This setup is ideal for scenarios where both devices share a single network port but require different authentication mechanisms.

MAC address authentication (A)and802.1X authentication (B)individually cannot accommodate both devices efficiently.

Portal authentication (D)is mainly used for guest access and is not practical for IP phone and PC connections.

Huawei’sNQA (Network Quality Analysis)provides tools to test and monitor network performance such as latency, jitter, and packet loss. The supported test types include:

ICMP— For reachability and round-trip time testing.

UDP,TCP,HTTP,FTP, etc.

DNS,VoIP,DHCP(limited to simulation, not monitoring protocol status itself)

Protocols likeSNMPandOSPFarenot directly monitored by NQA, as these aremanagement or control plane protocols, not data-path or performance-measurable protocols.

Correct answer: C. ICMP
