Designing for Cisco Internetwork Solutions (DESGN, legacy) — Question 26

What network virtualization technology can be leveraged within the data center to reduce the number of physical devices?

Answer options

• A. VLANs
• B. VPLS
• C. VDC
• D. VSS

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, VDC (Virtual Device Context), which allows multiple virtual devices to operate on a single physical device, thus reducing the need for additional hardware. Options A (VLANs), B (VPLS), and D (VSS) do not provide the same level of virtualization that directly reduces the number of physical devices in the data center.
