Cisco Enterprise Networks SDA, SDWAN and Catalyst Center for System Engineers — Question 28

How many bytes does a VxLAN header add to an original Ethernet frame?

Answer options

• A. 36
• B. 50
• C. 48
• D. 64

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as a VxLAN header adds 50 bytes to the original Ethernet frame, which includes the 8 bytes for the VxLAN header and additional overhead. The other options are incorrect because they do not account for the precise structure and size of the VxLAN encapsulation, leading to different byte totals.
