Question 1130
An operations review at a manufacturing plant has corrected: An SD-WAN rule refers to a Path Quality profile that was created in a different folder and is unavailable to the branch firewall. Which observation specifically confirms success?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The target branch resolves the referenced profile and passes configuration validation. This evidence directly tests the intended corrective action: Move or recreate the approved profile at the correct supported scope and update the matching SD-WAN policy. It confirms the failure mechanism—Policy references must resolve within applicable management scope and inheritance.—has been addressed in the actual affected flow.
Incorrect Answers
The backup path reports valid quality and becomes eligible when the primary deteriorates. This would verify resolution of a different case: A site enables new SD-WAN path steering but omits probe reachability through its edge firewall and incorrectly flags every backup path as failed. It does not show that the reported issue was fixed or that its intended action—Move or recreate the approved profile at the correct supported scope and update the matching SD-WAN policy.—worked.
Voice sessions shift on quality degradation while bulk transfers follow their cost-appropriate policy. This would verify resolution of a different case: A branch uses one SD-WAN profile for backup transfers and video calls, resulting in expensive failovers for harmless bulk-traffic delay. It does not show that the reported issue was fixed or that its intended action—Move or recreate the approved profile at the correct supported scope and update the matching SD-WAN policy.—worked.
A controlled latency degradation produces the expected qualified path selection without oscillation. This would verify resolution of a different case: A primary circuit has intermittent latency spikes but an SD-WAN quality profile uses an overly insensitive threshold that never triggers. It does not show that the reported issue was fixed or that its intended action—Move or recreate the approved profile at the correct supported scope and update the matching SD-WAN policy.—worked.
