Yeah, that makes sense. And B could also be a reason, if the IPS engine can't decode a particular packet, it may enter fail-open to avoid blocking legitimate traffic.
Alright, so I think the most likely answers are A and B. The IPS buffer being full or the engine not being able to decode a packet. Those seem like the most logical reasons for triggering the fail-open mode.
I've seen this kind of question before on the exam. It's important to understand the different reasons for triggering IPS fail open, so let's think this through carefully.
