But wouldn't a priority of 255 ensure that the passive firewall takes over correctly in case of failover?

I think the priority should be higher. Maybe 90 would be a better option.

I'm leaning towards B. The passive firewall should have a priority of 1, just enough to take over if the active one goes down.

I see your point, but I still believe D is the most appropriate choice for the passive firewall.

I'm not so sure about that. I think B would be a safer choice for the passive firewall.

I agree with D. Having a priority of 255 for the passive firewall ensures that it will take over if the active one fails.

But the administrator assigned priority 100 to the active firewall, so I believe D would be the correct choice for the passive firewall.

I think it should be C. Priority 90 makes more sense for the passive firewall.

Haha, this reminds me of that joke about the network engineer who set the priority to 255 just to be 'extra passive'.

I think the answer is C. The priority for the passive firewall should be lower than 100, but not too low, right? 90 seems like a good balance.

Hmm, this question is tricky. The priority for the passive firewall needs to be lower than the active one, but what's the right number? I'm debating between B and C.
