Why each option

Even if an IP SLA operation is defined, it requires a separate schedule configuration to specify when it should begin and run.

AThe SLA must also have a schedule configured before it will start.Correct

An IP SLA operation definition by itself does not start the operation; it must be explicitly scheduled using the `ip sla schedule` command with a start time and optionally a life or frequency to begin monitoring.

BThe TTL of the SLA packets is 10.

The TTL value is typically configured explicitly or defaults to a specific value, and '10' is not a universally correct default or implied value without specific exhibit details.

CThe SLA has a timeout of 3.6 seconds.

The timeout for an SLA operation is a specific configurable parameter, and '3.6 seconds' is not a universally correct default or implied value without the exhibit.

DThe SLA has a lifetime of 5 seconds.

The lifetime of an SLA operation is a specific configurable parameter, and '5 seconds' is not a universally correct default or implied value without the exhibit.
