HPE6-A45 Exam - Question 52


Refer to the exhibits.

Exhibit 1 -

Exhibit 2 -

The exhibits show the current operational state for routes on Switch-3. The company wants Switch-3 to send all traffic to 172.16.0.0/16 through Switch-2.

Which single configuration change creates the desired behavior?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

To direct all traffic to the 172.16.0.0/16 network through Switch-2, the OSPF cost for the default route on Switch-1 should be set higher than the cost on Switch-2. By setting a cost of 5 in the router ospf area 0.0.0.1 stub command on Switch-1, Switch-3 will prefer the lower cost path through Switch-2. This change will ensure that traffic from Switch-3 is routed via Switch-2 to reach the 172.16.0.0/16 network.
