Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (DCACI) — Question 48

A situation causes a fault to be raised on the APIC. The ACI administrator does not want that fault to be raised because it is not directly relevant to the environment. Which action should the administrator take to prevent the fault from appearing?

Answer options

• A. Under System -> Faults, right-click on the fault and select Acknowledge Fault so that acknowledged faults will immediately disappear.
• B. Create a stats threshold policy with both rising and falling thresholds defined so that the critical severity threshold matches the squelched threshold.
• C. Under System -> Faults, right-click on the fault and select Ignore Fault to create a fault severity assignment policy that hides the fault.
• D. Create a new global health score policy that ignores specific faults as identified by their unique fault code.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because selecting 'Ignore Fault' allows the administrator to create a policy that hides the fault from view, which is the desired outcome. Option A simply acknowledges the fault but does not prevent it from being displayed. Option B focuses on creating thresholds rather than managing fault visibility, and option D involves a global health score policy that may not specifically address the fault in question.
