Actual exam question for Juniper's JN0-637 exam
Question #: 5
Topic #: 1
[All JN0-637 Questions]

Click the Exhibit button.

Referring to the exhibit. SRX-1 and SRX-3 have to be connected using EBGP. The BGP configuration on SRX-1 and SRX-3 is verified and correct.

Which configuration on SRX-2 would establish an EBGP connection successfully between SRX-1 and SRX-3?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Comprehensive Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation with All Juniper Security Reference

Understanding the Scenario:

SRX-1 and SRX-3:

Need to establish an EBGP session through SRX-2.

Issue:

BGP session is not coming up despite correct configurations on SRX-1 and SRX-3.

Option D: The security policy to allow SRX-1 and SRX-3 to communicate on TCP port 179 should be configured.

BGP uses TCP port 179 for establishing sessions.

SRX-2 must have a security policy allowing traffic between SRX-1 and SRX-3 on TCP port 179.


'Security policies must permit BGP traffic (TCP port 179) to allow BGP sessions through the SRX device.'

Source: Juniper TechLibrary - Configuring Security Policies for Transit Traffic

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

Option A: Host-inbound-traffic affects traffic destined to SRX-2, not transit traffic.

Option B and C: TCP ports 79 and 169 are unrelated to BGP.

Conclusion:

The correct option is D, configuring a security policy to allow TCP port 179.

Just to clarify, SRX-2 needs to allow traffic on port 179.

I think the security policy needs to allow communication on TCP port 179 for EBGP to work. That seems to align with what we practiced, but I hope I remember it correctly!

I'm a bit confused about the host-inbound-traffic statements. I know they can block traffic, but I can't recall if that applies here.

I feel like we had a practice question about security policies allowing specific ports for BGP. I think it was definitely about port 179, but I could be mixing it up with something else.

I remember we discussed the importance of TCP port 179 for BGP. I think that's the right answer, but I'm not completely sure.

Based on the options, it seems the security policy on SRX-2 needs to be configured to allow the EBGP traffic between SRX-1 and SRX-3. I'll carefully review the port numbers mentioned in the choices.

I'm a bit confused here. The host-inbound-traffic statements on SRX-2 could be the issue, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach. I'll need to double-check the BGP port requirements.

Okay, the question states the BGP config is already verified, so I should focus on the security policy on SRX-2. Looks like I need to allow the EBGP traffic to traverse SRX-2.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the BGP configuration on SRX-1 and SRX-3 to understand the expected traffic flow.

I'm feeling pretty confident about D. After all, when it comes to BGP, you can't go wrong with the good old port 179. Unless, of course, the exam writers are feeling particularly mischievous today. In that case, I might just have to roll the dice and hope for the best!

D, no doubt about it. Although I do wonder if the exam writers have a twisted sense of humor, throwing in those other port numbers just to see if we're paying attention. Jokes on them, I'm on to their tricks!

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. Maybe they're testing our knowledge of BGP port numbers? Or perhaps they're trying to trip us up with those other port options. Either way, I'm sticking with D.

The answer is clearly D. The EBGP connection between SRX-1 and SRX-3 requires the security policy to allow them to communicate on TCP port 179, which is the standard BGP port.
