PCNSE Exam - Question 55


In a virtual router, which object contains all potential routes?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

In a virtual router, the Routing Information Base (RIB) contains all potential routes. The RIB consists of all the learned routes, encompassing every viable path to each destination. This contrasts with the Forwarding Information Base (FIB), which holds only the best routes currently active for forwarding packets. Therefore, the RIB is the appropriate answer as it includes all possible routes that the virtual router knows of.

For a router, there is the Routing Information Base (RIB) and the Forwarding Information Base (FIB). The difference between these two is that while the RIB contains all possible routes to various destinations, even if, there are more than one to a specific destination, the FIB contains only the best route to each destination. So in this case, the answer is B which is RIB.
