JNCIP-SEC: Juniper Networks Certified Professional – Security (2024) — Question 44

Which two statements are correct about the ICL in an active/active mode multinode HA environment? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. The ICL uses a separate routing instance to communicate with remote multinode HA peers.
• B. The ICL is the local device management interface in a multinode HA environment.
• C. The ICL is strictly a Layer 2 interface.
• D. The ICL traffic can be encrypted.

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

Option A is correct because the ICL does utilize a separate routing instance for communication between multinode HA peers. Option D is also correct as ICL traffic can indeed be encrypted. Options B and C are incorrect; B misrepresents the function of the ICL, and C incorrectly classifies it as strictly Layer 2 when it can operate at higher layers as well.
