Question 780
An enterprise network designer recommends: Encapsulate the tenant Ethernet frame in VXLAN over UDP/IP at the source VTEP. Which situation most clearly calls for this action?
Explanation
Correct Answer
This case requires the VXLAN transport encapsulation action. The routed IP fabric can transport tenant Layer 2 traffic between VTEPs.
Incorrect Answers
This other case would be better matched to Enable a supported all-active EVPN multihoming service with appropriate link aggregation. Both active attachment links can participate in forwarding under the supported design.
This other case would be better matched to Map the tenant's bridge domain to a consistent VXLAN network identifier on both VTEPs. The Layer 2 service can be carried through VXLAN tunnels over a routed IP underlay.
This other case would be better matched to Use EVPN designated-forwarder election for the relevant Ethernet segment and service. BUM traffic toward the segment can be controlled so redundant peers avoid duplicate delivery.
