HashiCorp Certified: Vault Associate (002) — Question 50

Which statement describes the results of this command: $ vault secrets enable transit?

Answer options

• A. Enables the transit secrets engine at transit path
• B. Requires a root token to execute the command successfully
• C. Enables the transit secrets engine at secret path
• D. Fails due to missing -path parameter
• E. Fails because the transit secrets engine is enabled by default

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, accurately reflects that the command activates the transit secrets engine specifically at the transit path. The other options are incorrect because the command does not require a root token (B), it explicitly enables the engine at the transit path and not the secret path (C), it does not need a -path parameter (D), and the transit secrets engine is not enabled by default (E).
