Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (DCACI) — Question 338

An engineer must perform a Cisco ACI fabric upgrade that minimizes the impact on user traffic and allows only permitted users to perform an upgrade. Which two configuration steps should be taken to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Grant tenant-ext-admin access to a user who performs an upgrade
• B. Divide Cisco APIC controllers into two or more maintenance groups
• C. Combine all switches into an upgrade group
• D. Grant the fabric administrator role to a user who performs an upgrade
• E. Divide switches into two or more maintenance groups

Correct answer: D, E

Explanation

The correct answers are D and E because granting the fabric administrator role (D) allows the user to perform the upgrade with the necessary permissions, while dividing switches into maintenance groups (E) helps minimize user traffic impact during the upgrade process. Options A and C do not address the requirement of restricting upgrade permissions or minimizing impact effectively, while option B does not ensure the right permissions are granted for the upgrade.
