JNCIP-DC: Juniper Networks Certified Professional – Data Center (2023) — Question 53

Application developers are complaining that east-west server traffic is not being load balanced in your new data center.

What are three reasons for this behavior? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. BGP multipath is not configured.
• B. Policies for load balancing have not been configured.
• C. ESI active/active has not been configured.
• D. There is insufficient spine to leaf bandwidth.
• E. MP-BGP is not exporting the correct prefix type.

Correct answer: B, C, E

Explanation

The correct answers are B, C, and E because if load balancing policies are not configured (B), ESI active/active is not set up (C), or MP-BGP is not exporting the correct prefix type (E), it can lead to unbalanced traffic. Option A is incorrect as BGP multipath configuration is related to route distribution, not directly to load balancing, while option D pertains to bandwidth limitations rather than load balancing configuration.
