300-415 Question #98: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is C: 0.0.0.0/0 le 16. The prefix-list entry '0.0.0.0/0 le 16' matches all IP prefixes that are subnets of 0.0.0.0/0 with a prefix length up to and including /16, effectively matching all prefixes from /0 through /16.

Question

An engineer is configuring a list that matches all IP prefixes with lengths from /1 to /16 in a centralized control policy. Which list accomplishes this task?

Options

  • A0.0.0.0/1 le 16
  • B0.0.0.0/0 ge 1
  • C0.0.0.0/0 le 16
  • D0.0.0.0/16 ge 1

Explanation

The prefix-list entry '0.0.0.0/0 le 16' matches all IP prefixes that are subnets of 0.0.0.0/0 with a prefix length up to and including /16, effectively matching all prefixes from /0 through /16.

Common mistakes.

  • A. 0.0.0.0/1 le 16 restricts the base to /1, which would miss prefixes in the upper half of the IP address space that fall under 128.0.0.0/1.
  • B. 0.0.0.0/0 ge 1 matches all prefixes from /1 to /32, which is far broader than the intended /1 to /16 range.
  • D. 0.0.0.0/16 ge 1 is an invalid combination because 'ge' must be greater than or equal to the base prefix length (/16), making this match only /16 through /32, not /1 to /16.
