Multiple choice

Refer to the exhibit. A technician is teaching a trainee to interpret the results of various frame relay troubleshooting commands. What conclusion can be drawn from the output that is shown?

  1. Neighbouring routers should use DLCI 177 to reach the branch router.

  2. DLCI 177 will be used to identify all broadcasts that are sent out the branch router.

  3. The branch router has the address 192.168.3.1 configured for the S0/0/0 interface.

  4. To reach 192.168.3.1, the branch router will use the virtual circuit that is identified by DLCI 177.

D Correct answer
Explanation

In Frame Relay, DLCI (Data Link Connection Identifier) identifies the virtual circuit used to reach a specific IP address. The output shows that to reach the destination 192.168.3.1, the router will use the virtual circuit identified by DLCI 177. This is the standard mapping shown in Frame Relay maps.
