Developing Applications and Automating Workflows Using Cisco Platforms (DEVASC) — Question 475

Which protocol is associated with the management plane on a network device?

Answer options

• A. ARP
• B. ICMP
• C. BGP
• D. SSH

Correct answer: D

Explanation

SSH is the correct answer because it is commonly used for secure management access to network devices. The other protocols, such as ARP, ICMP, and BGP, serve different purposes such as resolving IP addresses, sending control messages, and exchanging routing information, but are not primarily used for device management.
