Accuracy? Telemetry gives detection down to microseconds accuracy, so it can report tiny changes in the network. SNMP is poll based with a fixed amount of time. Anything between polls may get missed. https://info.support.huawei.com/info-finder/encyclopedia/en/Telemetry.html I vote for Accuracy.

C. accuracy can also be an advantage of network telemetry over SNMP pulls. Network telemetry offers continuous, real-time monitoring of network data, whereas SNMP pulls are periodic and may miss some data. This can result in more accurate data collection and analysis with network telemetry.

Selected Answer: C Another good one lol.... In the big picture, Options A-C are ALL VALID answers. But of course, you can only pick one. Personally, I would go with Option C as I believe that is what modern-driven telemetry was meant for. Plus, taken from the same link that Husein2024 posted: "Model-Driven Telemetry is a new approach for network monitoring in which data is streamed from network devices continuously using a push model and provides near real-time access to operational statistics. You can PRECISELY DEFINE what data you want to subscribe to using standard YANG models (YANG is a data modeling language used to model configuration and state data manipulated by the NETCONF protocol) with no CLI required. It allows network devices to continuously stream real time configuration and operating state information to subscribers."

go back to the books kiddo

What is a benefit of using telemetry over SNMP to configure new routers for monitoring purposes? A. Telemetry uses push and pull, which makes it more secure than SNMP.

The main concern is security, then scalability and accuracy. would you agree?

But the question is: What is an advantage of network telemetry over SNMP pulls? Not what is the "primary concern", so the advantage is "Accuracy", 'C' is correct.

I agree with C: Accuracy For example, one of the major advantages of Cisco's Assurance is that you will immediately get notified of a fault. SNMP is not quite as accurate because you have to wait until the device gets polled. Getting an alert that is 5 minutes old is... innacurate.

C - Telemetry is a next-generation network monitoring technology used to remotely gather data from devices at high speed. Devices periodically push device information to a collector, giving real-time, high-speed, and accurate network monitoring.

Selected Answer: B Push or polling can create network overload if the number of devices grows exponentially. That is why, in my opinion, scalability fits better here
