Check Point Certified Threat Prevention Expert (CCTPE) — Question 106

What mechanism is used in the Cloud during a ClusterXL fail-over scenario?

Answer options

• A. The Router Discovery protocol will be used to propagate the new route after a failover scenario.
• B. Cloud clusters perform failovers by making API calls to the CSP.
• C. The Neighbor Discovery protocol will be used to propagate the new cluster node to be forwarded the packets to.
• D. The Gratuitous ARP mechanism will be used to change the MAC address entry in the ARP cache of the router.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because Cloud clusters rely on API calls to the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) to manage failover processes effectively. The other options refer to different protocols or mechanisms that are not specifically applicable to Cloud cluster failover scenarios.
