In SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), the MIB (Management Information Base) defines the attributes of a managed device. It acts as a structured database of managed objects, each described by a unique OID (Object Identifier). These objects provide critical information and control interfaces for network management. Other elements like the agent (manages the MIB) and NMS (queries the agent) do not define attributes but interact with the MIB ​.

When STP and RSTP coexist in a network, RSTP switches will downgrade their operation to STP to ensure compatibility. However, this disables RSTP's rapid convergence features, as the protocol behaves like STP to maintain interoperability ​.

Based on the MSTP configuration shown, the role of the switch in MSTI 1 cannot be determined without additional details about the topology or priority values of other switches in the instance. The role could be a root switch, secondary root, or non-root, depending on these factors ​.

The command output indicates that the OSPF neighbor state is Full and that the neighbor relationship has been established. The statement confirms that the negotiation process during the exchange of DD (Database Description) packets has determined the role of the router, with the local device becoming the slave in the Master-Slave relationship, which is critical for LSA synchronization. The other options do not align with the output or OSPF principles ​

OSPF supports both area-level and interface-level authentication. When both are configured, interface authentication takes precedence over area authentication. This hierarchy ensures that specific interface-level configurations override the broader area-level settings when applicable ​.

ï‚· OSPF Authentication Overview

The Auth Type field in the OSPF packet header determines the authentication mode. If the Auth Type is 1, plaintext authentication is used.

Plaintext authentication involves transmitting the password in an easily readable format, which is less secure compared to MD5.

ï‚· HCIP-Datacom-Core Reference

Authentication mechanisms, including plaintext authentication, are detailed in the OSPF security configuration chapter, confirming that Auth Type = 1 corresponds to plaintext​​.

In PIM-DM (Protocol Independent Multicast - Dense Mode), the SPT (Shortest Path Tree) establishment process involves flooding to propagate multicast traffic across the network, prune messages to stop sending multicast traffic to unwanted interfaces, and graft messages to re-establish forwarding when needed. State-refresh is not directly involved in SPT establishment but helps maintain the prune state ​.

Policy-Based Routing (PBR) on interfaces is used to forward traffic based on specific policies rather than the routing table. However, PBR is not suitable for modifying the next-hop of locally originated traffic. Other scenarios listed are typical use cases for interface PBR ​.
