These are the two features and functions that are supported when using an MX appliance in Passthrough mode. According to the [MX Addressing and VLANs] article, Passthrough mode allows the MX appliance to act as a layer 2 bridge, passing traffic between its LAN and WAN ports without performing any routing or address translation. However, some features such as intrusion prevention and site-to-site VPN are still available in this mode.

I’m confused about the secondary uplinks; I thought they were only relevant in certain modes, so I’m leaning towards A and E.

I practiced a question like this, and I think high availability is definitely supported in Passthrough mode, but I can't recall the second feature.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like site-to-site VPN could be one of the options since it’s often mentioned in similar questions.

I think I remember that Passthrough mode doesn't support all features, so maybe A and D?
