Q10. The routing protocol detects both device and path failures using its _____.
Q11. You should design the VPN to meet an organization’s requirements for availability. The design should provide a level of high availability that is commensurate with the _____ of meeting availability needs.
Q12. If _____ are needed, you should either deploy a completely redundant network path that is under the control of local administration or use multiple-transport networks (two ISPs) and connect them to either redundant interfaces or redundant VPN devices.
Q13. _____ will automatically detect peer failures and path failures and then automatically reroute around the failure if redundant paths and devices are in place.
