Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCID) — Question 16

What are two characteristics of VRF-Lite on the Cisco NX-OS platform? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Layer 3 interfaces can belong to multiple VRFs.
• B. VRF-Lite interfaces can be Layer 2.
• C. Overlapping IP addresses are permitted on different VRFs.
• D. Interfaces that belong to VRFs can be physical or logical.
• E. VRF-Lite interfaces support MPLS.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

The correct answers are C and D because VRF-Lite allows overlapping IP addresses in different VRFs and supports both physical and logical interfaces. Option A is incorrect because Layer 3 interfaces cannot belong to multiple VRFs, option B is wrong as VRF-Lite interfaces are typically Layer 3, and option E is incorrect since VRF-Lite does not inherently support MPLS.
