Question 560

Operations wants to avoid recurrence of this design flaw: During a predeployment review for a multimodal logistics WAN, the team discovers this design gap: a primary high-bandwidth WAN link fails and an undersized LTE backup becomes saturated, disrupting voice. 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. Test both traffic directions and firewall session replication with realistic WAN failures.
  2. Include chassis, power and provider-path diversity in WAN high-availability reviews.
  3. Rehearse production-size failover load and monitor backup usage limits. Apply the same control to the multimodal logistics WAN rollout checklist.
  4. Audit actual last-mile diversity rather than counting two circuits sharing a duct as independent.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Rehearse production-size failover load and monitor backup usage limits. Apply the same control to the multimodal logistics WAN rollout checklist. This control targets the underlying design risk. Failover changes available capacity; a backup path that is up may still violate application SLA without admission or QoS. The follow-up acceptance check remains: During an induced primary failure, voice delay and critical application loss remain within policy thresholds. The multimodal logistics WAN acceptance record also captures this result.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Stateful security and asymmetric routing can disrupt sessions even when both paths are individually reachable. The repeat risk here is different: Failover changes available capacity; a backup path that is up may still violate application SLA without admission or QoS. A directly relevant preventive control is: Rehearse production-size failover load and monitor backup usage limits. Apply the same control to the multimodal logistics WAN rollout checklist.

B:

Two external circuits on one router still share a single customer edge hardware failure domain. The repeat risk here is different: Failover changes available capacity; a backup path that is up may still violate application SLA without admission or QoS. A directly relevant preventive control is: Rehearse production-size failover load and monitor backup usage limits. Apply the same control to the multimodal logistics WAN rollout checklist.

D:

Single-homing leaves a single path failure that routing protocols cannot repair without alternate physical access. The repeat risk here is different: Failover changes available capacity; a backup path that is up may still violate application SLA without admission or QoS. A directly relevant preventive control is: Rehearse production-size failover load and monitor backup usage limits. Apply the same control to the multimodal logistics WAN rollout checklist.

Question 561

A Cisco enterprise designer reviews the following scenario: A WAN redesign proposes active-active sharing over asymmetric providers, ignoring return-path and firewall-state constraints. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Validate directional path symmetry needs and application statefulness before enabling multipath traffic.
  2. Add a diverse second access circuit and suitable edge failover to eliminate the single access-link fault domain.
  3. Use separate redundant edge devices and verify upstream termination diversity.
  4. Consider a DWDM transport design with appropriate optical engineering rather than treating each wavelength as a new IP routing protocol.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Validate directional path symmetry needs and application statefulness before enabling multipath traffic. This action addresses the stated design problem. Stateful security and asymmetric routing can disrupt sessions even when both paths are individually reachable. A practical confirmation is: Approved applications survive active-active operation and failover without state-related drops.

D:

DWDM multiplexes distinct optical wavelengths onto one fiber pair to increase transport capacity. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: Stateful security and asymmetric routing can disrupt sessions even when both paths are individually reachable. The needed response is: Validate directional path symmetry needs and application statefulness before enabling multipath traffic.

Question 562

The network architecture board discusses the following: A WAN redesign proposes active-active sharing over asymmetric providers, ignoring return-path and firewall-state constraints. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  2. Stateful security and asymmetric routing can disrupt sessions even when both paths are individually reachable.
  3. Failover changes available capacity; a backup path that is up may still violate application SLA without admission or QoS.
  4. GRE can encapsulate multicast or nonnative payloads over a unicast IP underlay but supplies no encryption by itself.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Stateful security and asymmetric routing can disrupt sessions even when both paths are individually reachable. The correct engineering response is: Validate directional path symmetry needs and application statefulness before enabling multipath traffic. The observable check is: Approved applications survive active-active operation and failover without state-related drops.

Question 569

A design team must resolve this enterprise network problem: An engineer describes the SD-WAN management GUI as the component that forwards user packets between branches. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Use OMP for overlay route and policy information while leaving end-user forwarding to the WAN-edge data plane.
  2. Ensure the approved orchestrator/controller discovery and certificate trust path is available during bootstrap.
  3. Distinguish management functions from WAN edge data-plane forwarding in the architecture.
  4. Set critical application priorities and capacity controls specifically for the lower-bandwidth backup transport.

Explanation
