Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 92

How does SSO work with HSRP to minimize network disruptions?

Answer options

• A. It enables HSRP to elect another switch in the group as the active HSRP switch.
• B. It ensures fast failover in the case of link failure.
• C. It enables data forwarding along known routes following a switchover, while the routing protocol reconverges.
• D. It enables HSRP to failover to the standby RP on the same device.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because SSO (Stateful Switchover) allows HSRP to switch to the standby Routing Processor (RP) on the same device, ensuring seamless continuity. Options A, B, and C do not accurately describe the specific functionality of SSO in relation to HSRP, as they focus on different aspects of failover processes or operational efficiencies.
