NSE 7 – Enterprise Firewall 6.4 — Question 33

Which two conditions must be met for a static route to be active in the routing table? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. The link health monitor (if configured) is up.
• B. The next-hop IP address is up.
• C. The outgoing interface is up.
• D. There is no other route to the same destination, with a higher distance.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

For a static route to be active, both the link health monitor must be functioning (if it is set up) and the outgoing interface must be operational. The next-hop IP address being up is important but not sufficient on its own, and having another route with a lower distance does not affect the static route's activity in the routing table.
