Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 268

Which device alias database is shown by this output?

switch# show device-alias database
device-alias name SampleName pwwn 24:40:00:e7:09:0b:27:56

Answer options

• A. inactive database
• B. effective database
• C. pending database
• D. zoning database

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The output indicates that it is displaying the effective device alias database since it shows the current mappings of device aliases to their physical worldwide names (pwwn). The inactive database would not show active entries, the pending database would contain changes waiting to be applied, and the zoning database pertains to a different concept related to access control.
