Question 430

For this Cisco ENSLD design case: During a predeployment review for a medical center network, the team discovers this design gap: an organization wants several isolated business units on the same SD-Access physical fabric. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  1. SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication.
  2. An SD-Access overlay depends on a stable IP underlay transporting encapsulated packets between fabric nodes.
  3. Cisco SD-Access commonly uses LISP mapping/control functions and VXLAN encapsulation to transport overlay traffic.
  4. VRRP provides an interoperable virtual-router gateway mechanism where compatible vendor implementations exist.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. The correct engineering response is: Use separate virtual networks and appropriate group-based policy instead of merely renaming VLANs. The observable check is: Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows. The medical center network acceptance record also captures this result.

Incorrect Answers

B:

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

C:

SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: Cisco SD-Access commonly uses LISP mapping/control functions and VXLAN encapsulation to transport overlay traffic. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

D:

SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: VRRP provides an interoperable virtual-router gateway mechanism where compatible vendor implementations exist. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

Question 431

During acceptance testing for this network design: During a predeployment review for a medical center network, the team discovers this design gap: an organization wants several isolated business units on the same SD-Access physical fabric. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. 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. Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows. The medical center network acceptance record also captures this result.
  3. Endpoint registration and resolution succeed through the control plane while data packets use the expected VXLAN path.
  4. A planned uplink failure recovers within the agreed convergence objective without loops.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows. The medical center network acceptance record also captures this result. SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An SD-Access overlay depends on a stable IP underlay transporting encapsulated packets between fabric nodes. In the case being tested, SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows. The medical center network acceptance record also captures this result.

C:

Cisco SD-Access commonly uses LISP mapping/control functions and VXLAN encapsulation to transport overlay traffic. In the case being tested, SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows. The medical center network acceptance record also captures this result.

D:

RSTP enables faster convergence than legacy 802.1D in supported topologies when port roles are correctly configured. In the case being tested, SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows. The medical center network acceptance record also captures this result.

Question 432

Operations wants to avoid recurrence of this design flaw: During a predeployment review for a medical center network, the team discovers this design gap: an organization wants several isolated business units on the same SD-Access physical fabric. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. Which preventive design control MOST DIRECTLY addresses this specific risk?

  1. Document control-plane nodes and data-plane validation separately.
  2. Include underlay reachability, MTU and failure testing in fabric acceptance criteria.
  3. Maintain VN and scalable-group access policy matrices with change review. Apply the same control to the medical center network rollout checklist.
  4. Include upstream-path tracking and recovery hysteresis in gateway designs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Maintain VN and scalable-group access policy matrices with change review. Apply the same control to the medical center network rollout checklist. This control targets the underlying design risk. SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. The follow-up acceptance check remains: Traffic tests confirm VN isolation and permit only explicitly authorized intergroup flows. The medical center network acceptance record also captures this result.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Cisco SD-Access commonly uses LISP mapping/control functions and VXLAN encapsulation to transport overlay traffic. The repeat risk here is different: SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. A directly relevant preventive control is: Maintain VN and scalable-group access policy matrices with change review. Apply the same control to the medical center network rollout checklist.

B:

An SD-Access overlay depends on a stable IP underlay transporting encapsulated packets between fabric nodes. The repeat risk here is different: SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication.

D:

FHRP role decisions without upstream tracking can select a locally alive but externally isolated gateway. The repeat risk here is different: SDA virtualization separates routing domains, while identity-based segmentation can further control communication. A directly relevant preventive control is: Maintain VN and scalable-group access policy matrices with change review. Apply the same control to the medical center network rollout checklist.

Question 433

A Cisco enterprise designer reviews the following scenario: A branch fabric must exchange traffic with traditional non-fabric networks but the plan has no external policy boundary. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Design border-node connectivity with explicit routing and segmentation handoff to external networks.
  2. Choose a supported SDA fabric-wireless design with the intended WLC, AP and edge roles.

C:

Fabric scale limits and multicast transport behavior can constrain design even when normal unicast reachability works.
