Cisco 400-007 Exam - Topic 4 Question 86 Discussion

Posted by Amina on Nov 01, 2026 at 05:37 AM

Company XYZ wants to redesign the Layer 2 part of their network to use all uplinks for increased performance, support host reachability with conversational learning, and avoid port-channels. Which other technique can be used?

Suggested Answer: A

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.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think LISP is more about addressing and routing rather than Layer 2 performance.

I remember studying TRILL and how it helps with efficient routing in Layer 2 networks. It might be a good fit here.
