JNCIS-SP: Juniper Networks Certified Specialist – Service Provider Routing — Question 36

Which two BGP attributes influence traffic coming into an AS? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. local preference
• B. next hop
• C. MED
• D. origin

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct answers are A and B because local preference is used to influence outbound traffic decisions within an AS, while next hop determines the IP address of the next router to reach a destination. The other options, MED and origin, do not directly influence traffic entering an AS; MED is used for influencing outbound routing decisions to external neighbors, and origin specifies the origin of the route.
