H12-821_V1.0 Exam Dumps - Huawei HCIP-Datacom Questions and Answers

Comprehensive and Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation:

IS-IS Area Division:

IS-IS divides areas by routers, not by links. A router is assigned to a specific IS-IS area, but it can belong to multiple levels:

Level 1: Maintains the LSDB (Link State Database) for the local area only.

Level 2: Maintains the LSDB for the backbone area and exchanges routes between areas.

Behavior of a Level 1-2 Router:

A router configured as Level 1-2 must maintain two separate LSDBs:

One for intra-area routes (Level 1).

One for inter-area routes (Level 2).

Incorrect Statement:

The statement that an IS-IS router only needs to maintain the LSDB of its area is incorrect because Level 1-2 routers maintain LSDBs for both levels.

All four are valid reasons why IKE (Internet Key Exchange) negotiation might not be triggered:

A – Security policy mismatches can block data flows, preventing IPsec from initiating.

B – If the route to the peer is unreachable, no packets can reach the tunnel interface, and IKE will not start.

C – If the IPsec policy is not bound to the correct interface, no protection is triggered.

D – If the ACL does not match the actual traffic, the flow will bypass IPsec.

Reference from Huawei HCIP-Datacom-Core Technology Study Guide:

“Common causes of IKE negotiation failure include incorrect ACLs, misapplied policies, unreachable peers, and misconfigured security zones.”

(Chapter: VPN Technologies – Section: IPsec Troubleshooting)

A is correct – Local attack defense can classify and prioritize packets (e.g., OSPF, BGP, SSH) and ensure critical protocols are processed first by the CPU.

B is correct – The dynamic link protection function ensures session-based applications (like SSH) are not disrupted even during a CPU attack.

C is false – Different protocols have different importance levels, so individual rate limits should be configured, not a uniform one.

D is correct – CPU protection also applies to management interfaces, such as those used for Telnet, SSH, or SNMP.

Reference from Huawei HCIP-Datacom-Core Technology Study Guide:

“Devices support local attack defense by classifying packets, setting priorities, and limiting rates to protect CPU resources. These policies also apply to the management interface.”

 Silent Interface Explanation

The silent-interface command is used to prevent OSPF from sending or receiving OSPF packets on the specified interface (GE 0/0/1). This disables OSPF adjacency establishment and stops route advertisement for that interface.

 Network Observations

Statement A: R2 can access the server.This is correct, as the silent interface does not impact data traffic, only OSPF-related communication.

Statement B: GE 0/0/1 of R1 cannot send OSPF packets.Correct due to the silent-interface configuration.

Statement C: The network segment to which GE 0/0/1 of R1 belongs cannot be advertised.This is correct, as the silent interface prevents route advertisement.

Statement D: GE 0/0/1 of R1 cannot accept OSPF packets.Correct, as the silent interface configuration blocks packet reception.

 HCIP-Datacom-Core Reference

OSPF interface command behavior is outlined in the configuration and lab examples sections​​.

A is false – Ports in MSTP can have different roles and states in different MSTIs. Each MSTI can independently elect a root and compute its own topology, which results in different port states per MSTI.

B is true – MSTIs use the same spanning tree algorithm as STP (and RSTP) for calculating the spanning tree topology.

C is true – Each MSTI may have a different root bridge and separate topology, depending on VLAN mappings.

D is true – MSTIs do not independently send BPDUs; only MSTI 0 (CIST) actually sends BPDUs, and information about other MSTIs is encapsulated within it. So the statement is worded to test conceptual understanding, but not incorrect in MSTP context as framed.

Reference from Huawei HCIP-Datacom-Core Technology Study Guide:

“MSTP allows different MSTIs to have different topologies. A port may be forwarding in MSTI 1 but blocking in MSTI 2. This independence improves VLAN-based traffic engineering.”

(Chapter: MSTP Concepts – Section: MSTI Behavior and Port Roles)

OSPF routers refresh and flood LSAs in the Link-State Database (LSDB) every 30 minutes by default to maintain topology consistency. OSPF does not rely on TCP; it uses its own acknowledgment mechanism. It also uses the Dijkstra algorithm, not Bellman-Ford. The flooding interval for LSU packets is shorter, typically 5 seconds ​.

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

OSPF-to-BGP route redistribution does not allow modification of MED values directly using a route-policy in Huawei devices.

Instead, MED can be set using a BGP attribute policy, not through the import command.

All other options (B, C, D) are correct:

B → Route-policy can filter imported direct routes.

C → network command does not modify attributes, only announces existing routes.

D → peer command can set Local Preference via route-policy.

 During WLAN roaming, the STA sends a Reassociation Request frame to the foreign AP to maintain connectivity. Association frames are used during initial connections, not roaming.

 APs with which a STA is associated before and after roaming can work on different channels, as roaming often occurs across channels in environments like multi-SSID or multi-channel setups.

Options C and D are false, as they contradict standard WLAN roaming procedures ​.

The traffic limiting policy feature supports not only limiting the number of connections initiated by or received by an IP address but can also apply other traffic metrics such as bandwidth or packet rates. This expanded capability makes the statement false ​.
