Question

The goal for any network designer is to strive to build a resilient network that adapts to changing conditions rapidly with minimal impact on the services running over the network. A resilient network can adapt to failures, but which soft failure can be harder to define and detect?

Options

Aa network with operational challenges due to lack of skills
Ba network that is not running in an optimal way
Ca network which does not solve complexity issues
Da network or service that experiences outages

Explanation

A network that is not running in an optimal way represents a soft failure because it may not experience complete outages, but it can suffer from performance degradation, increased latency, or other inefficiencies that can be difficult to detect and define. Unlike a hard failure, such as an outage, an optimal performance issue can often go unnoticed until it impacts services
