Question 60
At fictional Moorland Carriers, during a virtual-router integration, engineers report: A subset of source traffic should traverse a security inspection RIB, but the global destination route sends it through the ordinary transit exit. Which ongoing control would most directly detect or prevent the same failure from recurring?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Exercise matched and unmatched test flows after changes and monitor the filter counters and selected forwarding table. This monitors the behavior that failed at Moorland Carriers; the most useful acceptance signal is that only the selected traffic uses the inspection forwarding table while unmatched traffic follows the ordinary destination route.
Incorrect Answers
Validate accepted tag stacks and logical-unit counters when deploying a multi-service port. The monitored boundary differs from filter-based forwarding table selection, so the original weakness might reappear unnoticed. Filter-based forwarding selects a routing lookup table using packet classification; it does not rewrite the global best route for every packet.
This is a useful guard against routing instance separation, but it is not scoped to the observed filter-based forwarding table selection failure. An appropriate test would show that only the selected traffic uses the inspection forwarding table while unmatched traffic follows the ordinary destination route.
Audit the RIB group import targets and confirm that only approved prefixes are duplicated across tables. The monitored boundary differs from filter-based forwarding table selection, so the original weakness might reappear unnoticed. Filter-based forwarding selects a routing lookup table using packet classification; it does not rewrite the global best route for every packet.
