Question 410

The design record describes this issue: A planned SD-Access campus uses an MPLS-style underlay address plan without considering fabric-node reachability for VXLAN overlay endpoints. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  1. SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication.
  2. Cisco SD-Access commonly uses LISP mapping/control functions and VXLAN encapsulation to transport overlay traffic.
  3. Two-way redistribution can reintroduce routes into their source protocol without policy guards.
  4. An SD-Access overlay depends on a stable IP underlay transporting encapsulated packets between fabric nodes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

An SD-Access overlay depends on a stable IP underlay transporting encapsulated packets between fabric nodes. The correct engineering response is: Design a routed IP underlay with full fabric-node reachability and predictable MTU for encapsulated traffic. The observable check is: Fabric edge and border nodes resolve underlay paths and VXLAN test frames traverse without fragmentation faults.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An SD-Access overlay depends on a stable IP underlay transporting encapsulated packets between fabric nodes. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

B:

Question 411

After designing a change for the following scenario: A planned SD-Access campus uses an MPLS-style underlay address plan without considering fabric-node reachability for VXLAN overlay endpoints. Which acceptance observation BEST establishes the intended result?

  1. Fabric edge and border nodes resolve underlay paths and VXLAN test frames traverse without fragmentation faults.
  2. Endpoint registration and resolution succeed through the control plane while data packets use the expected VXLAN path.
  3. Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows.
  4. All devices boot concurrently without power-denial events and the switch retains measurable headroom.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Question 413

A new campus or WAN review presents this constraint: During a predeployment review for a large research campus, the team discovers this design gap: a planned SD-Access campus uses an MPLS-style underlay address plan without considering fabric-node reachability for VXLAN overlay endpoints. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Use separate virtual networks and appropriate group-based policy instead of merely renaming VLANs.
