You are asked to help troubleshoot new connectivity to a server on your network The system administrator is receiving user requests and confirms that the responses are being sent out However, the user never sees the response packet and suspects the firewall is dropping them. You configure a basic data path trace option and confirm you see the return data but it is being dropped.
Referring to the exhibit, why is the traffic being dropped?
A.
The server is changing the ports causing the session to be treated as a new session and it is being dropped.
B.
The sessions are stale and must be cleared manually.
C.
The traffic is failing a route lookup.
D.
The traffic is routing asymmetrically.
Correct answer is C.
asymmetric traffic is fine if the return traffic enters an interface in the same zone it originally egressed from. It obviously did since the return traffic matched an existing session.
