Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (ENSLD) — Question 20

Which design consideration should be observed when EIGRP is configured on Data Center switches?

Answer options

• A. Perform manual summarization on all Layer 3 interfaces to minimize the size of the routing table.
• B. Prevent unnecessary EIGRP neighborships from forming across switch virtual interfaces.
• C. Lower EIGRP hello and hold timers to their minimum settings to ensure rapid route reconvergence.
• D. Configure multiple EIGRP autonomous systems to segment Data Center services and applications.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because manual summarization on Layer 3 interfaces helps to limit the size of the routing table, which is crucial in a Data Center environment. Options B, C, and D, while relevant to EIGRP configuration, do not specifically address the need to optimize the routing table size, which is key for efficient performance in Data Centers.
