JNCIA-Junos: Juniper Networks Certified Associate – Junos (2024) — Question 36

Which two statements apply to the Routing Engine functions? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. It does not process routing updates.
• B. It responds to ping and traceroute commands.
• C. It maintains the routing tables.
• D. It processes the transit traffic.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answer includes B and C because the Routing Engine is responsible for responding to diagnostic commands like ping and traceroute, and it also maintains the routing tables necessary for network operations. Option A is incorrect as it implies that the Routing Engine has no role in routing updates, while D is wrong because processing transit traffic is typically handled by the forwarding engine, not the Routing Engine.
