Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
SD-WAN Performance SLAs (monitoring latency, jitter, and packet loss)
Why this is correct
Performance SLAs continuously measure link quality in real-time.
- ✗
Telnet remote terminal management protocol
Why it's wrong here
Telnet is an unencrypted management protocol, not an SD-WAN routing optimization tool.
- ✗
POP3 email retrieval protocol
Why it's wrong here
POP3 handles email downloading, not WAN path selection.
- ✗
SNMP v1 network monitoring traps
Why it's wrong here
SNMP traps send alerts, not real-time SD-WAN path steering decisions.
- ✓
SD-WAN rules for dynamic path selection
Why this is correct
SD-WAN rules steer application traffic over the best performing WAN path based on SLAs.
