The output information of a router is below, which is correct about this information?

Question

Options

• AThe MED value of the route to the destination network 5.1.1.0/24 is 50
• BThe MED value of the route to the destination network 1.1.1.0/24 is 100
• CThe next hop of the route to the target network 5.1.1.0/24 is 1.1.1.1, and the route is optimal
• DThe next hop of the route to the target network 1.1.1.0/24 is 1.1.1.1, and the route is optimal

• A
  8% (4)
• B
  13% (7)
• C
  75% (39)
• D
  4% (2)

Explanation

Option C is correct because the BGP routing table shows that the route to 5.1.1.0/24 has a next hop of 1.1.1.1 and is marked with the best-route indicator (typically > in Huawei VRP output), confirming it as the optimal/selected route.

Why the distractors fail:

• A is wrong because the MED for 5.1.1.0/24 is not 50 - the values for the two routes are likely swapped in the table, and 50 belongs to 1.1.1.0/24.
• B is wrong because the MED for 1.1.1.0/24 is not 100 - again, the question swaps the MED values between routes to catch careless readers.
• D is wrong because while 1.1.1.1 may appear as a next hop somewhere in the table, the route to 1.1.1.0/24 is not marked as optimal - only one route per destination can be best, and the > indicator belongs to the 5.1.1.0/24 entry.

Memory tip: On BGP output questions, always anchor each attribute (MED, next hop, optimal flag) to its specific prefix - exam writers deliberately swap values between routes. When you see a claim like "X is optimal," look for the > marker on that exact prefix row, not just anywhere in the table.
