I agree with B, AS4_Aggregator is the way to go!

Wait, is aggregation really not supported for 32-bit? Sounds odd.
CR

D makes sense, using 23456 as a dummy value is clever.

I thought it was A, same method as 16-bit?
VE

It's definitely B, AS4_Aggregator is key for 32-bit.

I thought aggregation was supported with 32-bit AS numbers, but now I'm questioning if there are limitations I overlooked during my studies.

I feel like there was a practice question about dummy values in the aggregator field, but I can't remember if it was related to 32-bit AS numbers or something else.
AL

I think the AS4_Aggregator attribute is specifically for 32-bit AS numbers, but I can't recall if it replaces or supplements the existing method.

I remember that the aggregator attribute is supposed to work similarly for both 16-bit and 32-bit AS numbers, but I'm not entirely sure how that translates in practice.

Ah, I remember learning about this. The aggregator for 32-bit AS numbers is handled the same way as 16-bit, just with a different attribute. I'm confident B is the right answer here.

Okay, I think I've got it. The aggregator for 32-bit AS numbers uses the AS4_Aggregator attribute, not the standard aggregator. So the answer is B. Glad I reviewed that before the exam!

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know 32-bit AS numbers work differently, but I can't remember if that applies to the aggregator attribute as well. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B, since 32-bit AS numbers use a different attribute for aggregation, but I'll double-check the details just to be sure.

Haha, option D sounds like the router's way of saying 'Hey, I know this is a 32-bit number, just bear with me here!'
CA

C looks right to me. Aggregation with 32-bit AS numbers isn't supported yet, so that's the logical answer.
SH
Sharika

That makes sense. So, we just have to wait for support to be added for 32-bit AS numbers.
MO
Mona

Yes, you're correct. Aggregation is not yet supported with 32-bit AS numbers.
OC
Octavio

C looks right to me. Aggregation with 32-bit AS numbers isn't supported yet, so that's the logical answer.
JU

Hmm, I'm leaning towards D. Using a dummy value to indicate the 32-bit AS number in the next TLV seems like a clever workaround.
TA

User 3: Yeah, D seems like the most practical solution for handling the aggregator attribute with 32-bit AS numbers.
CO
Cordie

Agreed, using a dummy value to point to the actual 32-bit AS number makes sense.
JA
Jamika

I think D is the correct option. It's a smart way to handle 32-bit AS numbers.
WI
William

I'm not sure about that. I think it might be D) By using a dummy value of 23456 in the 16-bit AS aggregator field.
MA
Marleen

I agree with Leanna. It makes sense to use the AS4_Aggregator attribute for 32-bit AS numbers.
LE
Leanna

I think the answer is B) With the same method as 16-bit AS numbers, but using the AS4_Aggregator attribute.
FE
Felix
2 years ago
I'm pretty sure it's option B. The 32-bit AS numbers use the same method as 16-bit, but with the AS4_Aggregator attribute.
AU
Audry

Exactly, using the AS4_Aggregator attribute is how the aggregator attribute is handled with 32-bit AS numbers.
OC
Ocie
2 years ago
So, it's not the same method as 16-bit AS numbers, but it involves the AS4_Aggregator attribute.
HU
Huey

Yes, that's correct. The AS4_Aggregator attribute is used with 32-bit AS numbers.
LU

I think you're right, option B is the correct one.
