JNCIS-ENT: Juniper Networks Certified Specialist – Enterprise Routing and Switching (2021) — Question 11

How does the SSL proxy detect if encryption is being used?

Answer options

• A. It uses application identity services.
• B. It verifies the length of the packet.
• C. It queries the client device.
• D. It looks at the destination port number.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because application identity services help identify the nature of the traffic, including whether encryption is being applied. The other options do not accurately determine encryption; packet length can vary regardless of encryption, querying the client device may not provide relevant information, and the destination port number alone does not indicate encryption status.
