Which two statements about network management are correct? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• AFault management can discover problems before they cause downtime.
• BAuthorization validates that a user is who they claim to be.
• CMeasurement of network performance, errors, and security allows administrators to make
• DNetwork management is added after the network is built and network designers do not need to

• A
  80% (47)
• B
  7% (4)
• D
  14% (8)

Explanation

Fault management (A) is correct because it involves proactive monitoring - detecting anomalies like high error rates or degraded links before they escalate into outages. Performance/error/security measurement (C) is correct because that measurement is precisely what enables administrators to make informed decisions about capacity, tuning, and policy changes - it's the data-driven foundation of network management.

Option B is wrong because it confuses authentication (verifying identity) with authorization (granting permissions to verified users) - a classic trap.

Option D is wrong because network management must be planned from the start - embedding monitoring, logging, and control mechanisms during design, not bolted on afterward.

Memory tip: Think "FCAPS" (Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security) - the standard network management framework. Options A and C map directly to the F and P pillars, while B and D contain deliberate misconceptions about identity management and design lifecycle.
