Which two statements are true regarding chassis clustering? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• AThe chassis cluster uses a fabric link between the two nodes.
• BThe chassis cluster uses an FXP10 link between the two nodes.
• CThe chassis cluster nodes must be within 10 feet of each other.
• DThe chassis cluster nodes can be located in different cities.

• A
  87% (40)
• B
  4% (2)
• C
  9% (4)

Explanation

Juniper SRX chassis clusters connect two nodes via a fabric link (A), which carries synchronized session and flow data between them - this is a core architectural requirement. A major benefit of chassis clustering is geographic flexibility: nodes can be deployed in different cities (D), making it ideal for disaster recovery and high-availability across data centers.

Why B is wrong: "FXP10" is not a valid interface. The control link uses fxp1 (or a dedicated port depending on platform), while fxp0 is the out-of-band management interface - FXP10 simply doesn't exist.

Why C is wrong: There is no 10-foot physical proximity requirement. Distance is constrained only by practical latency limits on the fabric/control links, not a hard rule - and geo-separated deployments are explicitly supported.

Memory tip: Think "Fabric Far-away" - the Fabric link connects the nodes, and they can be Far apart (different cities). If an answer suggests a made-up interface name (FXP10) or an arbitrary physical constraint (10 feet), treat it as a distractor.
