Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answers

  • A better-distance candidate for the same prefix is selected.
  • Its outgoing interface is down.

Interface usability and competing same-prefix route preference affect installation. An absence of user traffic, firewall policy IDs and a working gateway ARP refresh do not determine whether the route is active. Candidate/database presence alone is insufficient.
