Your network contains two subnets. The subnets are configured as shown in the following table.
You have a server named Server2 that runs Windows Server 2012. Server2 is connected to LAN1.
You run the route print command as shown in the exhibit. (Refer to the Exhibit.)
You need to ensure that Server2 can communicate with the client computers on LAN2.
What should you do?
A.
Change the metric of the 10.10.1.0 route.
B.
Set the state of the Teredo interface to disable.
C.
Set the state of the Microsoft ISATAP Adapter #2 interface to disable.
D.
Run route delete 172.23.2.0.
Explanation:
Route is used to view and modify the IP routing table. Route Print displays a list of current routes that the host
knows. Default gateways are important to make IP routing work efficiently.
TCP/IP hosts rely on default gateways for most of their communication needs with hosts on remote
networksegments. In this way, individual hosts are freed of the burden of having to maintain extensive
andcontinuously updated knowledge about individual remote IP network segments. Only the router that acts as
thedefault gateway needs to maintain this level of routing knowledge to reach other remote network segments
inthe larger internetwork.
If the default gateway fails, communication beyond the local network segment may be impaired. To preventthis,
you can use the Advanced TCP/IP Settings dialog box(in Network Connections) for each connection tospecify
multiple default gateways. You can also use the route command to manually add routes to therouting table for
heavily used hosts or networksIf you have multiple interfaces and you configure a default gateway for each
interface, TCP/IP by defaultautomatically calculates an interface metric that is based on the speed ofthe
interface. The interface metricbecomes the metric of the default route in the routing table for the configured
default gateway. The interfacewith the highest speed has the lowest metric for its default route. The result is
that whenever multiple defaultgateways are configured on multiple interfaces, the fastest interface will be used
to forward traffic to its defaultgateway.
If multiple interfaces of the same speed have the same lowest interface metric, then, based upon the
bindingorder, the default gateway of the first network adapter is used. The default gateway for the second
networkadapter is used when the first is unavailable.
In order for Host A on Network 1 to communicate with Host B on Network 2, Host A first checks its routing
tableto see if a specific route to Host B exists. If there is no specific route to Host B, Host A forwards its TCP/
IPtraffic for Host B to its own default gateway, IPRouter 1.

All these answers are wrong, the correct procedure is to add a persistent route to LAN 2.
D is correct, the next step would be to add the correct route for 172.23.2.0 network with 172.23.1.1 as Gateway.
They could have made it even more trickier. Instead a D, delete route. They could have said D. reboot server as that would delete the static but non-persistent route. Guess i am more evil than MS 🙂
While you are correct DougEFresh, that would result in connections being able to reach there, you would still be missing a step.
Notice that the route to 172.23.2.0 has a default gateway set to 172.23.1.0. You may notice that this gateway is an invalid IP address, thus any traffic destined for this network would be sent to nowhere. In order to set the persistent route, you would FIRST have to delete this route from your routing table, otherwise you would have conflicting routes.
What the listed answers force you to assume, is that your default gateway probably already has a persistent route set in it to get to the other network (unless you are running RRAS on server2, which it doesn’t mention in the question). Therefore, in order for your traffic to reach the proper destination, you would have to delete the route sending those packets to 172.23.1.0 (since that isn’t a place) and let your default route take them to the correct place.
The correct answer is D, to delete the route that is sending traffic to nowhere, and thereby let your router handle where that remote destination is.
Agree
agree with neopod
“D” and no comment
I got this question on exam, answer is correct.
