Which campus fabric architecture supports Layer 3 gateways at the distribution layer?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

In Juniper's campus fabric architectures, the location of the Layer 3 gateway (IRB) differentiates between CRB and ERB models:

Centrally-Routed Bridging (CRB): L3 gateways are placed at the core layer.

Edge-Routed Bridging (ERB): L3 gateways are placed at the distribution layer, closer to the edge.

''In the ERB model, Layer 2 gateways are deployed at the access layer, and Layer 3 gateways are deployed at the distribution layer.''

Option A (CRB): Incorrect --- L3 is at the core, not distribution.

Option B (IP Clos): Incorrect --- in 3-stage Clos, L3 is pushed to the access layer.

Option D (EVPN multihoming): Incorrect --- this is about redundancy, not gateway placement.

Option C (ERB): Correct --- L3 gateways sit at the distribution layer in the ERB architecture.

I agree with Kerry. IP Clos is scalable for Layer 3.

D) EVPN multihoming sounds interesting but not the best fit here.

I lean towards C). ERB has its advantages too.

I feel A) is the right choice. CRB is widely used.

Wait, are we sure about that? I thought it was A) CRB.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think C) edge-routed bridging was mentioned as a possible answer, but I can't remember the details.

I might be mixing things up, but I thought D) EVPN multihoming was related to redundancy rather than Layer 3 gateways.

I feel like I studied something about A) centrally-routed bridging, but I can't recall if it specifically supports Layer 3 gateways.

I think it's B) campus fabric IP Clos, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember it being mentioned in a practice question about Layer 3 gateways.
