Which Prisma SD-WAN feature helps achieve seamless failover between WAN links?

Question

Options

• APath conditioning
• BSD-WAN Orchestrator
• CLink aggregation
• DIPsec tunneling

• A
  86% (30)
• B
  9% (3)
• C
  3% (1)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

Path conditioning is correct because it actively monitors WAN link quality in real time and automatically reroutes traffic to a healthy link when degradation or failure is detected - achieving seamless, near-zero-downtime failover without manual intervention.

• B (SD-WAN Orchestrator) is the centralized management/policy platform; it configures and orchestrates the network but does not itself handle link-level failover.
• C (Link aggregation) combines multiple links to increase bandwidth (bonding), but it doesn't intelligently react to link quality or perform failover based on path health.
• D (IPsec tunneling) provides encrypted transport over WAN links but is a security/encapsulation mechanism, not a failover or path-selection feature.

Memory tip: Think of conditioning like a sports player being "in condition" - path conditioning keeps traffic performing at peak health by constantly checking link vitals and switching paths the moment one goes bad.
