Can continue to function even in the event of individual component failures. This is important because elements of complex systems like a computer network fail at unexpected times, often in groups.

None of the above

Detailed explanation-1: -Fault Tolerant: Can continue to function even in the event of individual component failures. This is important because elements of complex systems like a computer network fail at unexpected times, often in groups.
Detailed explanation-2: -Which of the following statements best explains the ability of the network to provide fault tolerance? A The network is considered fault-tolerant because there are redundant paths between each pair of devices.
Detailed explanation-3: -A fault-tolerant system is one that can experience failure (or multiple failures) in its components, but still continue operating properly. The Internet is a massive and complex system with millions of components that can break at any time-and many of those components do break.
Detailed explanation-4: -Redundancy: The inclusion of extra components so that a system can continue to work even if individual components fail, for example by having more than one path between any two connected devices in a network.
