Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 170

In a Cisco SD-Access fabric, which control plane protocol is used for mapping and resolving endpoints?

Answer options

• A. DHCP
• B. VXLAN
• C. SXP
• D. LISP

Correct answer: D

Explanation

LISP (Locator/ID Separation Protocol) is the correct answer because it is specifically designed for endpoint identification and mapping in a control plane context. DHCP is used for dynamic IP address assignment, VXLAN is a network virtualization technology, and SXP (Security Exchange Protocol) relates to security rather than endpoint mapping.
