Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services (ENARSI) — Question 47

An engineer configured a Cisco router to send reliable and encrypted notifications for any events to the management server. It was noticed that the notification messages are reliable but not encrypted.
Which action resolves the issue?

Answer options

• A. Configure all devices for SNMPv3 informs with auth.
• B. Configure all devices for SNMPv3 informs with priv.
• C. Configure all devices for SNMPv3 traps with auth.
• D. Configure all devices for SNMPv3 traps with priv.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because using SNMPv3 informs with privacy ensures that the notifications are both reliable and encrypted. Options A and C include authentication, which does not provide the encryption aspect needed, while option D uses traps instead of informs, which also does not guarantee the same reliability as informs.
