JN0-102 · Question #240
You have been asked to create a static route with a next hop that is not directly connected to the router. Which configuration parameter enables the static route to accomplish this scenario?
The correct answer is A. resolve. To configure a static route with a next-hop that is not directly attached to the router, the resolve parameter is used to enable recursive lookup.

Why each option
To configure a static route with a next-hop that is not directly attached to the router, the `resolve` parameter is used to enable recursive lookup.
The `resolve` parameter, when configured with a static route, instructs the Junos device to recursively look up the specified next-hop IP address in the routing table. This allows the router to find a path to the non-directly connected next-hop through another existing route, effectively enabling recursive routing.
`indirect` is not a valid or correct parameter in Junos for enabling recursive next-hop resolution for static routes.
`next-hop` is the parameter to specify the next hop IP address, but it does not inherently enable recursive lookup if the next hop is not directly connected; the `resolve` option is required for that.
`recursive` is not a standard or correct parameter in Junos for enabling recursive next-hop resolution; the correct parameter is `resolve`.
