A network engineer runs the following command to troubleshoot a Policy-Based Routing (PBR) issue:
R1# debug ip policy
Policy routing debugging is on R1#
*Mar 1 00:15:30.789: IP: s=10.0.0.1 (FastEthernet0/0), d=20.0.0.1, len 100, policy match *Mar 1 00:15:30.789: IP: s=10.0.0.1 (FastEthernet0/0), d=20.0.0.1, len 100, policy rejected *Mar 1 00:15:30.789: IP: s=10.0.0.2 (FastEthernet0/0), d=20.0.0.2, len 100, policy match *Mar 1 00:15:30.789: IP: s=10.0.0.2 (FastEthernet0/0), d=20.0.0.2, len 100, policy routed *Mar 1 00:15:30.789: IP: FastEthernet0/0 to GigabitEthernet0/1 192.168.1.1

Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The route-map has multiple sequences or ACL entries; one source is permitted, the other is denied or fails next-hop check.
The debug shows two packets: the first from 10.0.0.1 was rejected, while the second from 10.0.0.2 was successfully routed to 192.168.1.1. This suggests that the route-map may have multiple sequences or the ACL differentiates between the sources.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
The route-map has multiple sequences or ACL entries; one source is permitted, the other is denied or fails next-hop check.
Why this is correct
The different treatment indicates different match conditions or set clause outcomes.
- ✗
Both packets should have been rejected due to a misconfiguration.
Why it's wrong here
One was routed, so not both rejected.
- ✗
The next-hop 192.168.1.1 is unreachable for the first packet.
Why it's wrong here
If unreachable, both would likely be rejected.
- ✗
The ACL is blocking all traffic from 10.0.0.1.
Why it's wrong here
The packet matched (policy match), so ACL allowed it; rejection is due to set clause.
