Selected Answer: B
I tested this in GNS3. PUT - replaces the whole routing table PATCH - added the route to the existing - but if the route with ip mask and gw already exists, it does nothing (checked this with route options name, tag, distanceand multicast in the route before using the script) I think B should be correct, because PATCH would add the entered route. Updateing a existing route is not possible.

Selected Answer: A
it's modifying an existing route by specifying the ip-route with a prefix, mask, and adding or updating the fwd-list with a next-hop (ip-address). This indicates that the script is designed to update an existing route rather than adding a new one

Selected Answer: A
For the 'PATCH' method, A and B would be the only feasible answers. However, since the Network Engineer changes the configuration daily (accordingly the question), this indicates that there is already a configuration. This eliminates B as the answer.

A and B are correct since PATCH is used to Update a resource and also creates a resource if it doesn´t existe reference book Network Programmability and automation fundamentals

POST: Creates a resource, if it´s already created a "409 coflict" is returned PUT: Creates a resource, if it´s already created then it´s replaced and "204 not content" is returned PATCH: Updates de resource, it can also be used to create a resource it the resource doesn´t exist
