Question 420
A first repair attempt for this situation failed: Only a restricted subnet is unreachable while all ordinary traffic passes. The review found the mistaken approach of disabling all security policy to make one application reachable. Which targeted recovery action BEST restores the intended design?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Correct the narrow rule or object reference without opening the entire network. This addresses the observed risk rather than hiding its symptoms. Confirm the repair when allowed traffic continues and the denied traffic matches the documented policy.
Incorrect Answers
This remediation choice fits a different situation: An access port shows administratively down even with a working patch cable. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive remediation choice is to correct the narrow rule or object reference without opening the entire network.
This remediation choice fits a different situation: A VSX pair loses downstream LAG forwarding after an ISL interruption. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive remediation choice is to correct the narrow rule or object reference without opening the entire network.
This remediation choice fits a different situation: An OSPF neighbor remains down despite successful ICMP pings between peers. It does not resolve the stated failure mode.
