350-401 · Question #757

Refer to the exhibit. An engineer configures HSRP and enters the show standby command. Which two facts about the network environment are derived from the output? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is B. The virtual IP address of the HSRP group is 10.1.1.1. E. If a router with a higher IP address and same HSRP priority as the active router becomes. The show standby command output directly indicates the virtual IP address of the HSRP group and provides information that helps derive HSRP election rules, such as the highest IP address winning in case of equal priorities.

Why each option

The `show standby` command output directly indicates the virtual IP address of the HSRP group and provides information that helps derive HSRP election rules, such as the highest IP address winning in case of equal priorities.

AThe local device has a higher priority selling than the active router

Without the exhibit, one cannot ascertain whether the local device has a higher priority than the active router, as the output would explicitly show both priorities.

BThe virtual IP address of the HSRP group is 10.1.1.1.Correct

The `show standby` command output explicitly lists the 'Virtual IP address', which is the shared gateway IP for the HSRP group.

CIf the local device fails to receive a hello from the active router for more than 5 seconds, it

The `show standby` output displays the configured hello and hold timers, and without seeing these specific values in the exhibit, one cannot assume a 5-second hello timer threshold for failover.

DThe hello and hold timers are set to custom values.

The output would show the hello and hold timers, but without knowing the default values and comparing them to the output, one cannot definitively conclude that they are set to custom values.

EIf a router with a higher IP address and same HSRP priority as the active router becomesCorrect

The `show standby` command displays the priorities and IP addresses of the local and active routers, from which the HSRP election rule (where the router with the numerically highest IP address becomes active if priorities are equal) can be confirmed.
