A network engineer is connecting a backup server to the network shown. The server has three available physical Ethernet interfaces: two 1-Gbps interfaces and one 10-Gbps interface. All devices support virtual port channels (vPCs). The engineer must minimize backup time, eliminate any single point of failure in the server's data-center connectivity, and configure the interfaces in an active/passive arrangement. Which deployment model must the engineer use?
A.

B.

C.

D.

Wait, are we sure about that? I thought 10-Gbps would be the way to go.

I remember that vPCs help with redundancy, but I can't remember which option specifically addresses the single point of failure. I think it might be option C, but I'm not sure.

I’m a bit confused about the active/passive arrangement. I thought that meant only one interface would be used at a time, which makes me lean towards option A.

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to choose between different deployment models. I feel like option B might be the right choice, but I can't recall the specifics.

I remember we discussed vPCs in class, but I'm not entirely sure which option minimizes backup time while ensuring active/passive setup.
