JNCIS-DCD: Juniper Networks Certified Specialist – Data Center Deployment — Question 29

Which service level expectation (SLE) metric measures congestion on the uplink interface of a switch?

Answer options

• A. Successful Connect
• B. Asymmetric Uplink
• C. Throughput
• D. Switch Health

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Throughput is the correct answer as it specifically measures the amount of data successfully transmitted over the uplink interface, indicating any congestion. The other options do not directly measure congestion; for example, 'Successful Connect' relates to connection success rates, 'Asymmetric Uplink' refers to uneven data transmission paths, and 'Switch Health' encompasses overall switch performance metrics.
