Question 490

The design record describes this issue: An enterprise installs SD-WAN CPE at sites connected to multiple commodity transports and needs application-aware path selection. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  1. A carrier MPLS L3VPN separates customer routing via provider VRFs and distributes eligible customer prefixes.
  2. Metro Ethernet can present an Ethernet service to customer edges without requiring a private optical system.
  3. Cellular WAN connectivity provides a separate access medium but has latency, availability and usage constraints.
  4. An SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

An SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays. The correct engineering response is: Place SD-WAN WAN-edge devices at the transport demarcations and design overlay policies for available circuits. The observable check is: Application flows follow intended paths and fail over to healthy TLOCs when an underlay degrades.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: a carrier MPLS L3VPN separates customer routing via provider VRFs and distributes eligible customer prefixes. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

B:

An SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: Metro Ethernet can present an Ethernet service to customer edges without requiring a private optical system. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

C:

An SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays. The offered choice instead concerns a different principle: Cellular WAN connectivity provides a separate access medium but has latency, availability and usage constraints. Those technical conditions are not interchangeable.

Question 491

After designing a change for the following scenario: An enterprise installs SD-WAN CPE at sites connected to multiple commodity transports and needs application-aware path selection. Which acceptance observation BEST establishes the intended result?

  1. Application flows follow intended paths and fail over to healthy TLOCs when an underlay degrades.
  2. The branch reaches critical services over cellular when the primary circuit is disconnected.
  3. Optical power, wavelength plans and end-to-end error rates meet the physical service design.
  4. The prescribed VLAN or pseudowire traffic crosses both sites and MTU requirements hold.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Application flows follow intended paths and fail over to healthy TLOCs when an underlay degrades. An SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Cellular WAN connectivity provides a separate access medium but has latency, availability and usage constraints.

The necessary acceptance evidence is: Application flows follow intended paths and fail over to healthy TLOCs when an underlay degrades.

C:

DWDM multiplexes distinct optical wavelengths onto one fiber pair to increase transport capacity. In the case being tested, an SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Application flows follow intended paths and fail over to healthy TLOCs when an underlay degrades.

D:

A Layer 2 VPN transports customer Layer 2 frames without making the carrier manage customer Layer 3 routes. In the case being tested, an SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays. The necessary acceptance evidence is: Application flows follow intended paths and fail over to healthy TLOCs when an underlay degrades.

Question 492

A preventive architecture review covers this situation: An enterprise installs SD-WAN CPE at sites connected to multiple commodity transports and needs application-aware path selection. Which preventive design control MOST DIRECTLY addresses this specific risk?

  1. Minimize unnecessary stretched broadcast domains and document loop-prevention responsibilities.
  2. Maintain transport diversity and monitor per-path SLA probes before application steering changes.
  3. Check demarcation handoff, VLAN tags and carrier SLA testing at activation.
  4. Review optical budgets, amplification and protection paths with transport engineers.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Maintain transport diversity and monitor per-path SLA probes before application steering changes. This control targets the underlying design risk. An SD-WAN edge participates in encrypted overlays and uses controller-distributed policy to steer traffic over eligible underlays. The follow-up acceptance check remains: Application flows follow intended paths and fail over to healthy TLOCs when an underlay degrades.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Question 493

A new campus or WAN review presents this constraint: During a predeployment review for a regional healthcare WAN, the team discovers this design gap: an enterprise installs SD-WAN CPE at sites connected to multiple commodity transports and needs application-aware path selection. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Consider a DWDM transport design with appropriate optical engineering rather than treating each wavelength as a new IP routing protocol.
  2. Use a policy-controlled 4G/5G backup path with tested failover and data-use limits.
  3. Add encryption if confidentiality is required rather than assuming a Layer 2 pseudowire is intrinsically encrypted.
  4. Place SD-WAN WAN-edge devices at the transport demarcations and design overlay policies for available circuits.

Explanation

Correct Answer
