A network administrator configures a router by the command ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 209.165.200.226. What is the purpose of this command?

A. to forward all packets to the device with IP address 209.165.200.226
B. to forward packets destined for the network 0.0.0.0 to the device with IP address 209.165.200.226
C. to provide a route to forward packets for which there is no route in the routing table
D. to add a dynamic route for the destination network 0.0.0.0 to the routing table

Which type of static route that is configured on a router uses only the exit interface?

D. default static route

B. directly connected static route

A network administrator uses the command ip route 172.18.0.0 255.255.0.0 S0/0/1 to configure a floating static route on a router. That route will function as a backup route to reach the EIGRP learned network 172.18.0.0/16. After this configuration, the EIGRP route is removed from the routing table even though EIGRP is still functioning properly. Why is the static route not functioning as intended?

A. The network mask is incorrectly configured.
B. The next hop neighbor IP address is not configured.
C. The destination network is incorrectly configured.
D. The administrative distance value is not high enough on the static route.
