Juniper JN0-281 Exam - Topic 3 Question 5 Discussion
Topic #: 3
Exhibit:
How many stages are shown in the exhibit?
The exhibit shows a Folded IP Clos Architecture, which is also referred to as a 3-stage Clos network design. This architecture typically consists of two layers of switches:
Spine Layer: The top row of switches.
Leaf Layer: The bottom row of switches.
Step-by-Step Breakdown:
Clos Architecture:
A 3-stage Clos network has two types of devices: spine and leaf. In this design, each leaf switch connects to every spine switch, providing a high level of redundancy and load balancing.
Stage Explanation:
Stage 1: The first set of leaf switches.
Stage 2: The spine switches.
Stage 3: The second set of leaf switches.
The Folded Clos architecture shown here effectively 'folds' the 3-stage design by combining the ingress and egress leaf layers into one, reducing it to two visible layers, but still maintaining the overall 3-stage architecture.
Juniper Reference:
IP Clos Architecture: The 3-stage Clos design is commonly used in modern data centers for high availability, redundancy, and scalability.
