Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.PFS automatically assigns one as the backup.
  2. B.The paths can qualify for multipath/ECMP if other prerequisites hold.

  4. D.Neither route can ever be installed.
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • The paths can qualify for multipath/ECMP if other prerequisites hold.

Equal route attributes can allow multipath. Alphabetic names and PFS do not define route preference, and equal-cost paths are not inherently un-installable. Verify the actual active table and intended forwarding design.
