Cisco 300-610 Exam - Topic 6 Question 107 Discussion

Actual exam question for Cisco's 300-610 exam

Question #: 107
Topic #: 6

Refer to the exhibit.

Fiber links are provisioned directly between the spine and leaf switches in the given LAN topology A/30 prefix has been configured over each fiber link to provide underlay connectivity for a VXLAN network. The network-engineering team must update the network configuration to provide the shortest possible convergence time if a fiber link is cut. Which action must the team take to meet the requirement?

AConfigure the /30 links as OSPF point-to-point networks

BEnable BFD on the/30 links

CEnable UDLD on the GO links

DConfigure ECMP on the /30 links

Definitely agree with B, it's a game changer!

ECMP won't help with convergence time, just load balancing.

Wait, can BFD really speed things up that much?

BFD is the way to go for fast convergence!

ECMP could be useful, but I feel like it’s more about load balancing than convergence. I’m leaning towards BFD for this one.

UDLD sounds familiar, but I don't recall it being directly related to convergence times. I might be mixing it up with something else.

I think enabling BFD on the /30 links could really help with reducing convergence time, but I need to double-check the specifics.

I remember we discussed OSPF point-to-point networks in class, but I'm not sure if that's the best option for fast convergence.

I think the answer is B - enabling BFD. That's going to give you the quickest failover times compared to the other options, which are more focused on redundancy than pure speed of convergence.

I'm not totally sure about this one. The OSPF point-to-point and ECMP options seem interesting, but I'm not confident I fully understand how they would impact convergence time in this scenario.

Okay, I've got this. Enabling BFD on the /30 links is definitely the way to go. That will provide the fastest failure detection and convergence when a link goes down.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the different protocol options here. I'll need to think through the pros and cons of each one to determine which is the best fit for the requirement of shortest convergence time.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question about optimizing convergence time in a VXLAN network. I think the key is to look at the options and figure out which one will provide the fastest failover.

I'm just going to go with B and hope the network team doesn't cut the fiber links with scissors. That would be a real plot twist!

D is interesting, but ECMP might not be the best fit for a single fiber link topology. I'd go with B or A.
