JN0-102 · Question #66

Which statement is true about logical units?

The correct answer is B. A logical unit is required for transit interfaces. Logical units are essential for configuring IP addresses and other layer 3 properties on an interface, especially when that interface is intended to forward traffic.

Why each option

Logical units are essential for configuring IP addresses and other layer 3 properties on an interface, especially when that interface is intended to forward traffic.

ALogical units are similar to VLANs used by other vendors.

While both logical units and VLANs involve segmentation, logical units in Junos OS are primarily about creating multiple logical interfaces on a single physical port for different protocols or routing instances, whereas VLANs are a Layer 2 segmentation technology.

BA logical unit is required for transit interfaces.Correct

For an interface to function as a transit interface and carry IP traffic, it must have at least one logical unit configured with an IP address, as logical units represent the logical endpoints for layer 3 protocols on a physical interface.

CFrame Relay encapsulation supports one logical unit.

Frame Relay encapsulation supports multiple logical units, with each logical unit typically corresponding to a Data Link Connection Identifier (DLCI).

DLink speed and duplex are configured in the logical unit properties.

Link speed and duplex settings are physical layer properties configured at the physical interface level, not within the logical unit properties, which primarily deal with Layer 3 and higher layer settings.
