Topic #: 2
[All NSE6_FSW-7.2 Questions]

Exhibit.

Two routes are not installed in the forwarding information base (FIB) as shown in the exnibit. Which two statements about these two route entries are true? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, B

From the exhibit and the details given about the routes not installed in the FIB:

These two routes have a higher administrative distance value available to the destination networks (Option A): Administrative distance is a measure used by routers to select the best path when there are two or more different routes to the same destination from two different routing protocols. A higher administrative distance means that the route is considered less trustworthy, thus not selected for the FIB unless the more preferred routes fail.

These two routes will become primary, if the best routes are removed (Option B): In routing, if the currently installed routes (which are considered the best due to reasons like lower administrative distance) are removed or become unavailable, the next best routes based on administrative distance will be used. This behavior ensures redundancy and maintains network connectivity in diverse scenarios.


This approach is aligned with standard routing protocol behavior as documented in networking protocols and Fortinet's routing mechanisms which prioritize routes based on administrative distance and other metrics to maintain efficient and reliable network routing.

Nah, I'm going with B and C. These routes will become primary if the better ones disappear, and they'll be used for load balancing.

Hmm, I think the answer is A and D. These routes have a higher admin distance, and they're available in the hardware routing table.
