Exhibit
Referring to the exhibit, which statement is correct?
The route distinguisher (RD) is a BGP attribute that is used to create unique VPN IPv4 prefixes for each VPN in an MPLS network. The RD is a 64-bit value that consists of two parts: an administrator field and an assigned number field. The administrator field can be an AS number or an IP address, and the assigned number field can be any arbitrary value chosen by the administrator. The RD is prepended to the IPv4 prefix to create a VPN IPv4 prefix that can be advertised across the MPLS network without causing any overlap or conflict with other VPNs. In this question, we have two PE routers (PE-1 and PE-2) that are connected to two CE devices (CE-1 and CE-2) respectively. PE-1 and PE-2 are configured with VRFs named Customer-A and Customer-B respectively.
Exhibit
You are asked to exchange routes between R1 and R4 as shown in the exhibit. These two routers use the same AS number Which two steps will accomplish this task? (Choose two.)
A router running IS-IS is configured with an ISO address of 49.0001.00a0.c96b.c490.00.
Which part of this address is the system ID?
In IS-IS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System) routing, each router is identified by a unique ISO (International Organization for Standardization) address, also known as a Network Entity Title (NET). The NET consists of three parts:
1. **Area Identifier**: Indicates the area to which the router belongs.
2. **System Identifier**: Uniquely identifies the router within the area.
3. **NSAP Selector (NSEL)**: Typically set to 00 for a router, indicating the Network Service Access Point.
The format of the ISO address is `49.XXXX.YYYY.YYYY.ZZZZ.ZZZZ.00`, where:
- `49` is the AFI (Authority and Format Identifier) indicating a private address.
- `XXXX` is the Area Identifier.
- `YYYY.YYYY.YYYY` is the System Identifier.
- `ZZZZ.ZZZZ` is the NSAP Selector.
Given the address `49.0001.00a0.c96b.c490.00`:
- **Area Identifier**: `49.0001`
- **System Identifier**: `00a0.c96b.c490`
- **NSAP Selector**: `00`
**Explanation**:
- **A. 00a0.c96b.c490 is the system identifier**:
- Correct. The System Identifier in an ISO address is a 48-bit (6-byte) field used to uniquely identify the router. In this address, `00a0.c96b.c490` is the correct 6-byte System Identifier.
- **B. 0001.00a0.c96b.c490 is the system identifier**:
- Incorrect. This includes the Area Identifier as part of the System Identifier, which is not correct.
- **C. c96b.c490 is the system identifier**:
- Incorrect. This is only part of the System Identifier. The full System Identifier must be 6 bytes long.
- **D. c490 is the system identifier**:
- Incorrect. This is an incomplete and incorrect part of the System Identifier.
**Conclusion**:
The correct part of the address that represents the System Identifier is:
**A. 00a0.c96b.c490 is the system identifier.**

Exhibit
CE-1 and CE-2 are part of a VPLS called Customer1 No connectivity exists between CE-1 and CE-2. In the process of troubleshooting, you notice PE-1 is not learning any routes for this VPLS from PE-2, and PE-2 is not learning any routes for this VPLS from PE-1.
VPLS is a technology that provides Layer 2 VPN services over an MPLS network. VPLS uses BGP as its control protocol to exchange VPN membership information between PE routers. The route target is a BGP extended community attribute that identifies which VPN a route belongs to. The route target must match on PE routers that participate in the same VPLS instance, otherwise they will not accept or advertise routes for that VPLS.
You are configuring a BGP signaled Layer 2 VPN across your MPLS enabled core network. In this scenario, which statement is correct?
