Explanation

A self-healing network is defined by its ability to automatically detect faults and recover from them without human intervention, ensuring the network remains continuously on and available (A). This uninterrupted uptime is the defining trait - the "healing" refers to the network restoring itself to an operational state after failure.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B describes an intent-based network (IBN) - using analytics and insights to drive configuration changes is a feature of intelligent/automated networks, not self-healing specifically.
• C describes a secure network - protecting assets and users is the domain of network security (firewalls, access control, etc.).
• D describes an adaptive or agile network - going beyond basic standards to accommodate changing needs is about flexibility, not fault recovery.

Memory tip: Think of "self-healing" like a biological wound - the body doesn't shut down when injured, it repairs itself and keeps running. A self-healing network does the same: it stays up and available by automatically fixing problems, making "always on" the core concept to lock onto.
