JNCIE-ENT: Juniper Networks Certified Expert – Enterprise Routing and Switching — Question 8

You are developing a network monitoring strategy to track network response time and availability. The monitoring strategy should be scalable to accommodate future network growth.
Which two statements are true in this scenario? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Network reachability monitoring functions should be centralized to a dedicated monitoring device.
• B. RPM allows the monitoring of reachability, but does not allow delay or jitter monitoring.
• C. Network reachability monitoring functions should be delegated to each network device.
• D. RMON is a standardized system that is not vendor specific.

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

Option A is correct because centralizing monitoring functions allows for efficient resource management and scalability. Option D is also correct as RMON is indeed a standardized protocol applicable across various vendors. Options B and C are incorrect; B misrepresents RPM's capabilities, and C contradicts the benefits of centralized monitoring.
