1. On a Linux router, packet forwarding for IPv4 has been enabled. After a reboot, the machine no longer forwards IP packets from other hosts. The command:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

temporarily resolves this issue.

Which one of the following options is the best way to ensure this setting is saved across system restarts?

Add echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to the root user login script

Add echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to any user login script

In /etc/sysct1.conf change net.ipv4.ip_forward to 1

In /etc/rc.local add net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

In /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config add ipv4.ip_forward = 1

2. What information can be found in the file specified by the status parameter in an OpenVPN server configuration file? (Choose two.)

-sS

5. Which of the statements below are correct regarding the following commands, which are executed on a Linux router? (Choose two.)

Packets with source or destination addresses from fe80::/64 will never occur in the FORWARD chain

The rules disable packet forwarding because network nodes always use addresses from fe80::/64 to identify routers in their routing tables

ip6tables returns an error for the second command because the affected network is already part of another rule

Both ip6tables commands complete without an error message or warning

The rules suppress any automatic configuration through router advertisements or DHCPv6

9. When the default policy for the netfilter INPUT chain is set to DROP, why should a rule allowing traffic to localhost exist?

All traffic to localhost must always be allowed

It doesn’t matter; netfilter never affects packets addressed to localhost

syslogd receives messages on localhost

The iptables command communicates with the netfilter management daemon netfilterd on localhost to create and change packet filter rules
