Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (ENSLD) — Question 215

What does the fabric data plane leverage in SD-Access Architecture?

Answer options

• A. LISP protocol to resolve endpoint-to-location mapping
• B. IS-IS protocol to exchange link-state routing information
• C. MAC-in-IP encapsulation method to transport of the Layer 2 frame
• D. BGP protocol to advertise endpoint prefixes outside of the fabric

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the MAC-in-IP encapsulation method allows for the transportation of Layer 2 frames over the fabric data plane. Options A, B, and D refer to protocols that serve different purposes in networking and do not pertain to the specific function of the fabric data plane in SD-Access Architecture.
