Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 501

A network engineer must deploy a configuration backup policy to the Cisco UCS Manager. The file generated from this backup must have a snapshot of the entire system that should be used to restore the system during disaster recovery. The backup file must be transferred insecurely by using the TCP protocol. Which configuration backup settings meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Type: Full State Protocol: FTP
• B. Type: System Configuration Protocol: TFTP
• C. Type: All Configuration Protocol: SCP
• D. Type: Logical Configuration Protocol: SFTP

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as FTP is an insecure TCP protocol that allows for the transfer of the full state of the system. Option B, TFTP, is also an insecure protocol but is not suitable for a full state backup; it is more for configuration files. Options C and D use SCP and SFTP, respectively, both of which are secure protocols and do not meet the requirement for insecure transfer.
