JNCIE-SEC: Juniper Networks Certified Expert – Security — Question 3

Where are path selections made for an SD-WAN router?

Answer options

• A. physical interface card
• B. local packet forwarding engine
• C. local routing engine
• D. centralized controller

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the local routing engine is responsible for making path selection decisions based on the current network conditions and policies. Options A and B are incorrect because they pertain to hardware and packet handling rather than decision-making. Option D is also not correct, as the centralized controller may manage configurations but does not make local path selection decisions.
