Your network has a router named Router1 that provides access to the Internet. You have a server
named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2. Server1 to use Router1 as the default gateway.
A new router named Router2 is added to the network. Router2 provides access to the Internet. The
IP address of the internal interface on Router2 is 10.1.14.2S4.
You need to configure Server1 to use Router2 to connect to the Internet if Router1 fails.
What should you do on Server1?
A.
Add a route for 10.1.14.0/24 that uses 10.1.14.254 as the gateway and set the metric to 1.
B.
Add 10.1.14.254 as a gateway and set the metric to 1.
C.
Add a route for 10.1.14.0/24 that uses 10.1.14.254 as the gateway and set the metric to 500.
D.
Add 10.1.14.254 as a gateway and set the metric to 500.
Explanation:
To configure the Automatic Metric feature:
1. In Control Panel, double-click Network Connections.
2. Right-click a network interface, and then click Properties.
3. Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties.
4. On the General tab, click Advanced.
5. To specify a metric, on the IP Settings tab, click to clear the Automatic metric check box, and then
enter the metric that you want in the Interface Metric field.
To manually add routes for IPv4
Open the Command Prompt window by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button. In the
search box, type Command Prompt, and then, in the list of results, click Command Prompt.
At the command prompt, type route -p add [destination] [mask <netmask>] [gateway] [metric
<metric>] [if <interface>].

Is this answer correct?

Poorly worded question. I chose D through the process of elimination.
Answer A – Means that Router 2 will route traffic only to 10.1.14.0 with a metric of 1, router 1 will still handle Internet traffic
Amswer B – Implies that the Internet traffic will go to Router 2 with a metric of 1 thereby making Router 1 a secondary router
Answer C – Means that Router 2 will only route traffic to 10.1.14.0 with a metric of 500, router 1 will still handle Internet traffic
Answer D – Implies that the Internet traffic will go to Router 2 with a metric of 500, thereby router 1 will be the primary, router 2 will be secondary

I believe that the question is correct (C) because the non-route answers are changing the default gateway which points the system to the wrong gateway. The routing approach allows you to weight the use of a gateway, thus providing the alternate route.

Ok I looked at it again and C or D would work since they are each doing the same thing, so very poorly worded.

The keyword’s here are “internet access”
Metric 1 would give it a primary roll for routing trafic, which is NOT asked.
So this rules out A AND B.
Metric 500 gives it a secondary roll for routing trafic.
C is not the answer bcz: it only routes addresses 10.1.14.0/24 (which is a NONE routable/”life” range on the internet! (10…(A-Class), 127…(B-Class), 192…(C-Class)). The solution however should route ALL trafic comming in to the internet.
So the only logical answer is D.

I also think that the answer is ‘D.’
If you were trying to get to the 10.1.1.x network, then you would create a static route, to which ‘C’ would be the answer. But that’s not what is required in this question. The perimeter server just needs to be able to access the Internet. So you need to create a gateway out to the Internet. That is accomplished by ‘D.’ So, IP: 0.0.0.0 SN: 0.0.0.0 GW: 10.1.14.254 METRIC: 500. You would specify the metric as 500 because it is a secondary route to that of Router1.
