A BGP peer is stuck in the Active state. Which configuration mismatch is a likely cause?

The export policy is misconfigured.

The peer-as is set to the local AS.

The import policy is rejecting all routes.

The local-address is not reachable from the peer.

A BGP peer in group 'peers' is flapping. You see the message 'BGP NOTIFICATION: hold time expired' in the logs. You have verified that the peer is reachable and the configuration is correct. What is the most likely cause of this issue?

The peer is not sending keepalive messages within the negotiated hold time.

The local router is not sending keepalive messages to the peer.

The hold time configured on the local router is longer than the peer's hold time.

The peer is sending updates too frequently, causing the hold timer to reset.

Which Junos command would you use to verify that a BGP peer is sending the expected number of prefixes?

show configuration protocols bgp group external

You are troubleshooting a BGP session that is in the 'Established' state but not receiving any routes. You want to check if the import policy is filtering all routes. Which command would you use to see the policy decisions for the routes received from this peer?

show route receive-protocol bgp 198.51.100.1

show bgp neighbor 198.51.100.1 received-routes
