Question 580
The acceptance test for SLA-based failover at a public utility network in Calgary must confirm a fix for: A broad debug floods a production router's console and CPU while engineers search for a single peer issue. Which outcome shows that the precise problem was corrected?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This is the observable outcome for debug flood control. It tests whether the targeted change, 'Use narrow conditional debug where supported and stop diagnostics promptly after collecting evidence', actually resolved the reported issue at a public utility network in Calgary. The original failure was: A broad debug floods a production router's console and CPU while engineers search for a single peer issue.
Incorrect Answers
That observation verifies log timestamps absent in a different situation, such as when two routers' syslog events cannot be ordered during a reconvergence incident because device log messages have no accurate timestamps. For the reported debug flood control incident at a public utility network in Calgary, the required acceptance evidence is: Diagnostic output isolates the intended peer or traffic type without sustained CPU impact. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies syslog remote destination in a different situation, such as when a router logs events locally but nothing reaches the central collector because logging host was never configured. For the reported debug flood control incident at a public utility network in Calgary, the required acceptance evidence is: Diagnostic output isolates the intended peer or traffic type without sustained CPU impact. This other result does not test that condition directly.
That observation verifies syslog severity threshold in a different situation, such as when informational interface events never reach syslog because the configured logging trap level captures only severe messages. For the reported debug flood control incident at a public utility network in Calgary, the required acceptance evidence is: Diagnostic output isolates the intended peer or traffic type without sustained CPU impact. This other result does not test that condition directly.
