Question 71

Vault Agent allows client-side caching of tokens and leases. If the agent is shut down, those tokens and leases cached will be revoked.

    Correct Answer: B

    Vault Agent allows client-side caching of tokens and leases to improve efficiency by reducing the need to repeatedly query the Vault server. If the agent is shut down, the tokens and leases it cached are not automatically revoked. Instead, those tokens and leases continue to exist and remain valid until they reach their designated expiration time according to the configured time to live (TTL). Thus, shutting down the agent does not trigger the revocation of the cached tokens and leases.
