JNCIP-DC: Juniper Networks Certified Professional – Data Center (2024) — Question 11

You are deploying a new network to support your AI workloads on devices that support at least 400 Gbps Ethernet. There is no requirement for any Layer 2 VLANs in this network.
Which network architecture would satisfy this requirement?

Answer options

• A. an IP fabric using the EVPN-MPLS architecture
• B. an IP fabric with an EVPN-VXLAN architecture
• C. an IP fabric using the PIM-SM to signal VXLAN overlay
• D. an IP fabric using EBGP

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as the EVPN-VXLAN architecture is designed to efficiently support high bandwidth workloads and can operate without Layer 2 VLANs. Option A, EVPN-MPLS, and Option C, PIM-SM, are not as suitable for this specific requirement, and Option D, EBGP, does not provide the necessary overlay capabilities for AI workloads.
