JNCIA-Junos: Juniper Networks Certified Associate – Junos (2024) — Question 61

You received a new Junos device and are configuring the system-related settings. You must configure this device for the current date and time on the US West coast. You have set the time zone to America/Los_Angeles, however the time and date did not change.
In this scenario, which two additional actions would satisfy this requirement? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Configure an NTP server.
• B. Set the date and time setting manually.
• C. Reboot the device.
• D. Configure a DNS server.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

Configuring an NTP server (Option A) is essential for synchronizing the device's clock with an accurate time source, ensuring the correct date and time are maintained. Setting the date and time manually (Option B) provides an immediate solution if NTP is not available. Options C and D are not relevant as rebooting the device won't change the time settings and configuring a DNS server does not affect time synchronization.
