Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 564

Which two conditions occur when the primary route processor fails on a switch that is using dual route processors with stateful switchover? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Data forwarding can continue along known paths until routing protocol information is restored.
• B. Data forwarding is stopped until the routing protocols reconverge after the switchover.
• C. The standby route processor is fully initialized and state information is maintained.
• D. User sessions are immediately recreated on the new active route processor.
• E. The standby route processor initialization is started when the primary router processor fails.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Answer A is correct because data forwarding can continue without interruption until the routing protocols are restored. Answer C is also correct as the standby route processor maintains the state information and is fully initialized. Answers B, D, and E are incorrect because B states that data forwarding stops, which is not true in this scenario, D incorrectly suggests that user sessions are recreated instead of preserved, and E misrepresents the timing of the standby processor's initialization.
