H12-891_V1.0 Exam Dumps : HCIE-Datacom V1.0

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

Analyzing the output:

A. Key authentication is disabled for the tunnel: Correct. The output explicitly states " key disabled " .

B. The destination IP address of the tunnel is 10.0.3.3: Correct. The output shows " destination 10.0.3.3 " .

C. The tunnel is a GRE tunnel: Correct. The output states " Tunnel protocol/transport GRE/IP " .

D. Keepalive detection is enabled on the tunnel: Incorrect. The output clearly shows " keepalive disabled " .

Therefore, the correct answer is D because the tunnel does not have keepalive enabled.

Before performing a network cutover (migration or upgrade), it is essential to collect baseline data to ensure that services operate normally before and after the change.

Importance of Pre-Cutover Information Collection:

Identifies Network Baseline – Helps compare pre-cutover and post-cutover performance.

Detects Hidden Issues – Ensures that no existing network issues interfere with the cutover process.

Prevents Service Interruptions – Ensures all dependent services are accounted for.

Provides Rollback Plan – If issues arise, administrators can restore previous configurations.

Let’s analyze the scenario and each statement carefully based on OSPF path selection and BGP behavior in Huawei routers.

✅ Option A: The preferred path is R1–R3–R4.

According to the OSPF cost values:

R1–R3–R4: Cost = 1 + 1 = 2

R1–R2–R4: Cost = 2 + 2 = 4

OSPF chooses the lowest-cost path to reach a destination. Therefore, R1 will prefer the R1–R3–R4 path to reach 172.20.1.4/32.

Huawei Datacom Reference:

" OSPF selects routes based on the shortest path calculated using link costs. The router always selects the path with the lowest cost. "

(Source: HCIE-Datacom Study Guide v3.0 – OSPF Path Selection, Chapter 5)

✅ Option B: If the stub router on-startup command is run on R3, packet loss occurs during the power-off process of R3 but no packet loss occurs during the startup process of R3.

When R3 is powered off, OSPF needs to reconverge, which causes temporary packet loss.

When R3 starts up, it will advertise itself as a stub router using the stub-router on-startup command. This tells OSPF not to use R3 as a transit path during the startup period, thus preventing traffic blackholing.

Huawei Datacom Reference:

" stub-router on-startup command prevents a newly started router from being used as a transit node by OSPF, allowing routing to remain stable during convergence. "

(Source: HCIE-Datacom Study Guide v3.0 – OSPF Stub Router Functionality, Chapter 6.2)

❌ Option C: The preferred path is R1–R2–R4.

This is incorrect because the OSPF path cost via R2 is higher (4) than the cost via R3 (2).

❌ Option D: Packet loss occurs during both the power-off and startup processes of R3.

Incorrect. As explained above, when the stub-router on-startup command is used, packet loss is avoided during startup, but still occurs during power-off since the alternate path requires convergence.
