Referring to the exhibit, why is the 200.1.0.0/16 prefix failing to be advertised in BGP?
A.
BGP needs a next-hop self policy.
B.
The aggregate route is set to reject.
C.
The policy works for internal BGP only.
D.
The IS-IS route is less preferred than the aggregate route.
Explanation:
Correct Answer is D.
By default, aggregate routes have a preference value of 130. If the routing table contains a dynamic route to a destination that has a better (lower) preference value than this, the dynamic route is chosen as the active route and is installed in the forwarding table.
When a BGP route is installed in the routing table, it must go through a path selection process if multiple routes exist to the same destination prefix.
The foremost thing that bgp considers in path selection is route preference.
In this case the Aggregate route has a lower preference of 130 compared to that of isis which is 160 for Level 1 external routes and 165 for Level 2 external routes, so bgp have chosen the prefix advertised by the aggregate route, and the default next-hop for an aggregate route is “reject” , it is never advertised unless there is a contributing route.
Shortly, inactive (not best) routes does not get advertised (by BGP as well).
