400-007 Exam Dumps - Cisco CCDE v3.0 Questions and Answers

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract of Design Expert (CCDE)

Controller-based networks centralize control logic, abstracting hardware complexity and providing consistency. This results in:

C. Abstraction: Devices are treated as policy endpoints rather than configuration silos, simplifying network operations and scalability.

E. Consistent Configuration: Policies and configurations are pushed uniformly across all devices from the controller, reducing human error and improving compliance.

These features align with CCDE v3.1 recommendations for modern, policy-driven, and scalable architectures that are easier to manage and automate.

==========

A (TRILL - Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links):TRILL enables multipathing at Layer 2, eliminating classic STP blocking, allowing all uplinks to be active simultaneously, and uses IS-IS based control plane for conversational MAC learning.

Other options explained:

B: LISP operates at Layer 3 for endpoint mobility, not Layer 2 multipathing.

C: MSTP still blocks some links under normal operation.

D: Switch stacking merges multiple physical switches into one logical switch but does not provide true multipathing across independent switches.

B (Layer 3 MPLS VPN hub and spoke):A hub-and-spoke MPLS VPN allows scalable branch-to-data-center communication with efficient routing, simplified management, and adequate support for real-time video across 200 branches.

Other options explained:

A: DMVPN is flexible but not as scalable or deterministic for 200-site enterprise video conferencing.

C: VPLS operates at Layer 2 and may introduce unnecessary broadcast domain scaling challenges.

D: Full mesh MPLS is difficult to manage for such a large number of sites.

In Cisco Wireless Guest Anchor deployments, traffic between foreign and anchor controllers is typically tunneled using CAPWAP (Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points).

The CAPWAP tunnel operates over IP and can traverse MPLS VPN or VRF-Lite Layer 3 segmentation to maintain logical separation across different segments or geographic sites.

This allows end-to-end isolation of guest traffic from the enterprise network into the DMZ anchor location, as shown in the diagram.

Why other options are incorrect:

B: Unencapsulated traffic would expose guest traffic inside the enterprise network.

C: EoIP is not a standard Cisco wireless tunneling method.

D: IPinIP or IPsec tunnels are not typically used between WLCs for guest anchor tunneling.
