Question 770
An acceptance check at Cedarline Hotels has two requirements: (1) support a remote site that cannot always reach the controller, and (2) separate finance endpoints from engineering devices at Layer 2. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Both outcomes are covered: (1) FlexConnect supports selected local switching and local survivability behavior in branch deployments. (2) VLAN membership creates separate Layer 2 broadcast domains even on the same physical switch. Neither action is a substitute for the other.
Incorrect Answers
The first step covers (1), but the second addresses advertise basic device identity to a multivendor adjacent device. LLDP is a vendor-neutral Layer 2 discovery protocol that advertises neighbor identity and capabilities. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.
Neither step is the requested pair: Use a supported out-of-band console connection is for manage a switch when its production network is unreachable, and Set the intended distribution switch's STP priority lower than competing bridges is for reduce the chance of an unintended access switch becoming STP root. A console provides local management access independent of in-band IP reachability. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.
The second step covers (2), but the first addresses aggregate WLC uplinks for bandwidth and resilience. A compatible aggregated uplink spreads supported traffic across multiple physical links. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.
