Huawei Certified ICT Expert – Routing and Switching (HCIE-RS) — Question 3

VXLAN identifies tenants using VNIs, which are 24 bits long. A tenant can have one or more VNIs, and VXLAN supports a maximum of 12 million tenants.

Answer options

• A. True
• B. False

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because while VNIs are indeed 24 bits long, VXLAN can support a maximum of 16 million unique VNIs, which translates to about 16 million tenants, not 12 million. Therefore, the statement is false.
