Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
BGP next-hop is always collected by default in Flexible NetFlow monitors.
Why it's wrong here
BGP next-hop is not collected by default; it requires explicit configuration.
- ✗
BGP next-hop is never collected in Flexible NetFlow, only in traditional NetFlow.
Why it's wrong here
Flexible NetFlow can collect BGP next-hop if configured, but it is not default.
- ✓
BGP next-hop is collected only if the flow record includes the 'match routing bgp next-hop' command.
Why this is correct
