Question

A network administrator has recently updated their network devices to ensure redundancy is in place so that:

Options

  • Aswitches can redistribute routes across the network.
  • Benvironmental monitoring can be performed.

Why each option

Redundancy in networking is implemented to eliminate single points of failure, ensuring the network remains operational if one component fails.

Aswitches can redistribute routes across the network.

Route redistribution is a routing protocol function unrelated to the purpose of hardware or link redundancy.

Benvironmental monitoring can be performed.

Environmental monitoring involves sensors for temperature and humidity and is not a function of network device redundancy.

Csingle points of failure are removed.Correct

Redundancy means deploying duplicate components (links, devices, power supplies) so that no single failure can bring down the entire system. Removing single points of failure is the defining goal of network redundancy, ensuring continuous availability when any one component fails.

Dhot and cold aisles are functioning.

Hot and cold aisles are physical data center cooling strategies, not a network redundancy concept.
