Juniper JN0-281 Exam - Topic 1 Question 4 Discussion

Actual exam question for Juniper's JN0-281 exam
Question #: 4
Topic #: 1
[All JN0-281 Questions]

Exhibit:

Referring to the exhibit, what is the route preference of the 172.25.11.254 next hop?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

In the exhibit, we see two next-hop addresses for the default static route (0.0.0.0/0):

The first next hop is 172.25.11.254, with no specified preference.

The second next hop is 172.25.11.200, with a specified preference of 140.

Step-by-Step Breakdown:

Default Static Route Preference:

If no preference is explicitly set for a next hop in Junos, it defaults to 5 for static routes.

Determining Preference:

In this case, the next hop 172.25.11.254 does not have an explicit preference defined, so it will use the default value of 5. The second next hop has a preference of 140, which is higher, meaning it will only be used if the primary next hop is unavailable.

Juniper Reference:

Static Route Preference: In Junos, the default preference for static routes is 5, and this value is applied unless overridden by the preference parameter.

Wait, are we sure it's not 140? Seems off.

I remember that 140 is usually for EIGRP, but I don't think that's the right choice for this question. I’m leaning towards 10.

I’m confused about the values. I thought 130 was a common preference for OSPF, but I can't recall if that's relevant here.

I practiced a similar question where the lower the number, the better the preference. I feel like 5 could be the answer here.

I think the route preference might be 10, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember something about administrative distances.

This is a tricky one, but I've practiced similar questions before. I'll methodically go through the options and use my knowledge of routing protocols to determine the correct answer.

I think I know the answer, but I want to double-check my understanding. Let me review the routing concepts one more time before selecting the option.

Okay, the key here is to identify the route preference based on the next hop address of 172.25.11.254. I'll need to consider the different routing metrics like administrative distance, cost, and other factors.

The exhibit shows some network information, but I'm not sure how to interpret it. I'll need to review my notes on routing protocols and metrics to figure this out.
