ICND2: Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices Part 2 (legacy) — Question 29

Which of the following is needed to be enable back the role of active in HSRP?

Answer options

• A. prempt
• B. priority
• C. cost
• D. failover

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, 'prempt', because this command allows a router with a higher priority to take over the active role in HSRP when it becomes available. The other options, such as 'priority', do influence which device becomes active, but 'prempt' specifically allows a device to reclaim its active status after it has gone down.
