Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 769

What is a characteristic of vManage?

Answer options

• A. It leverages the overlay management protocol to interface with WAN Edge devices.
• B. It supports protocols such as OSPF to integrate with legacy network devices.
• C. It requires a public IP address to allow WAN Edge devices to discover fabric components.
• D. It uses NETCONF to configure vSmart devices to build the overlay network data plane.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because vManage specifically uses the overlay management protocol to communicate with WAN Edge devices, which is a key feature of its function. Option B is incorrect as vManage does not rely on OSPF for integration with legacy devices. Option C is also wrong because a public IP address is not necessary for WAN Edge devices to discover fabric components, and option D is incorrect since vManage does not configure vSmart devices using NETCONF.
