Explanation

Option B (FALSE) is correct because in Nokia SR OS, a packet marked at SAP-ingress is assigned an internal Forwarding Class (FC) and profile - but this internal classification does not cause automatic remarking at the first network egress point. Network egress remarking is governed independently by the network egress QoS policy, which rewrites DSCP or MPLS EXP bits based on FC/profile for traffic exiting that interface; it is not triggered by, nor exclusive to, packets that were marked at SAP-ingress. Option A is wrong because it implies a direct causal link between SAP-ingress marking and network egress remarking - those are two separate, independent QoS operations that do not depend on each other. Memory tip: Think of SAP-ingress as the "classifier" (sets internal labels) and network egress as the "re-labeler" (sets header bits on the wire) - they work in parallel pipelines, not in a triggered sequence.
