✓ Correct answers

  • Authorize traffic on both possible egress paths.
  • Monitor failures beyond the local interface when the requirement includes upstream outages.

Backup forwarding needs policies and appropriate failure detection. Distance/priority does not measure path quality, NAT source identity can change across WANs, and an untested standby path can hide failures.
