JNCIP-DC: Juniper Networks Certified Professional – Data Center (2024) — Question 7

A local VTEP has two ECMP paths to a remote VTEP.
Which two statements are correct when load balancing is enabled in this scenario? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. The inner packet fields are not used in the hash load balancing.
• B. The destination port in the UDP header is used to load balance VXLAN traffic.
• C. The source port in the UDP header is used to load balance VXLAN traffic.
• D. The inner packet fields are used in the hash for load balancing.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

The correct answers are C and D because load balancing for VXLAN traffic considers the source port in the UDP header and the inner packet fields when calculating the hash. Options A and B are incorrect because A incorrectly states that inner packet fields are ignored, and B incorrectly claims that the destination port is used for load balancing.
