Implementing Cisco ACI Advanced (DCACIA) — Question 44

Which two actions are the Cisco best practices to configure NIC teaming load balancing for Cisco UCS B-Series blades that are connected to the Cisco ACI leaf switches? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Create vPC+
• B. Enable LACP active mode
• C. Create PAgP
• D. Create vPC
• E. Enable MAC pinning

Correct answer: B, E

Explanation

Enabling LACP active mode (B) allows for dynamic link aggregation, which is essential for load balancing and failover. Activating MAC pinning (E) ensures that traffic is consistently directed through specific links, optimizing performance. The other options, such as creating vPC+ (A), PAgP (C), and vPC (D), are not aligned with the best practices for load balancing in this context.
