Cisco Exam 300-420 Topic 15 Question 74 Discussion

Actual exam question for Cisco's 300-420 exam

Question #: 74
Topic #: 15

Refer to the exhibit.

Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is designing an OSPF solution for a customer. The design must take into consideration:

Application load balancers D. E. and F are in different geographical locations and are OSPF-enabled.

Hosts A, B. and C connect to an application through the load balancers using IP address 10.1.1.1/32.

In the event of a failure of one of the load balancers, hosts must still have access to the application.

Which solution must the engineer choose?

AAll load balancers to be co-located in area 0.

BX, Y, and Z to be configured as different areas

CAt least one load balancer to be in area 0.

DX, Y and Z to be configured as the same area

Wait, are we sure the load balancers are not actually just really big hamsters running on wheels? That would explain a lot about the design choices.

I think the engineer should choose option C, at least one load balancer to be in area 0 to ensure access to the application in case of failure.

That would be a funny sight to see, but I don't think load balancers are actually hamsters.

Option A sounds good, but I'm not sure if it's the best solution. Having all the load balancers co-located in area 0 could create a single point of failure.

I'm leaning towards option D. Configuring all the load balancers in the same area might simplify the design and make it easier to manage.

Option B seems like a better choice. Separating the load balancers into different areas will provide better redundancy and resilience in case of a failure.

I think option C is the way to go. Having at least one load balancer in area 0 ensures that hosts can still access the application even if one of the load balancers fails.
