Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (DCACI) — Question 209

An engineer configures port-12 on Leaf-101 and Leaf-102 to connect to a new server called SVR-12. This server will belong to a new EPG-12 and needs to use Encapsulation VLAN-12. An already existing server, which is named SVR-10, is also connected to the same leaf switches. SVR-10 belongs to EPG-10 and also uses Encapsulation VLAN-12. Which step must the engineer take to configure connectivity for SVR-12 and EPG-12?

Answer options

• A. Associate EPG-12 to the same BD as EPG-10.
• B. Enable port local VLAN scope.
• C. Disable native VLAN on both EPGs.
• D. Assign the IP address of SVR-12 to a different subnet.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as enabling port local VLAN scope allows the same VLAN to be used across different EPGs on the same port. Option A is incorrect because associating EPG-12 with the same bridge domain (BD) as EPG-10 does not directly address the VLAN configuration needed. Option C is not necessary since both servers can share the native VLAN. Option D is irrelevant because there is no need to change the IP address subnet for connectivity in this scenario.
