Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, B

According to the Juniper documentation1, an interface map is a configuration template that maps interfaces between logical devices and physical hardware devices (represented with device profiles) while adhering to vendor specifications. An interface map can be either predefined or custom. A predefined interface map is one that ships with Apstra software and supports most qualified Juniper devices. A custom interface map is one that is created by the user to meet specific requirements. An interface map can be stored in either the global catalog or the blueprint catalog. The global catalog contains all the interface maps that are available for use in any blueprint. The blueprint catalog contains the interface maps that are imported from the global catalog and used in a specific blueprint.

When a member of your organization makes changes to a predefined interface map, the following statements are correct:

Changes to interface maps in the global catalog do not affect interface maps that have already been imported into blueprint catalogs. This means that the existing blueprints that use the original version of the interface map will not be impacted by the changes. However, if you want to use the updated version of the interface map in a new or existing blueprint, you need to import it again from the global catalog.

Any changes made to predefined interface maps are discarded when Apstra is upgraded. This means that the changes will not be preserved across different versions of Apstra software. If you want to retain a customized interface map through Apstra upgrades, you need to clone the predefined interface map, give it a unique name, and customize it instead of changing the predefined one directly.

Therefore, the correct answer is A and B. Changes to interface maps in the global catalog do not affect interface maps that have already been imported into blueprint catalogs and any changes made to predefined interface maps are discarded when Apstra is upgraded.Reference:Edit Interface Map | Apstra 4.2 | Juniper Networks

D sounds right, anomalies are a common issue after changes.

I disagree with B, upgrades shouldn’t discard changes like that.

A) is definitely true, changes don’t affect imported maps.

I'm pretty confident that changes won't impact the software itself, but I wonder if that applies to all scenarios.

I feel like changes to predefined maps might raise anomalies, but I need to double-check that with the material we covered.

I remember something about upgrades discarding changes, but I can't recall if that's specific to interface maps or all changes.

I think changes to the global catalog don't affect imported blueprints, but I'm not entirely sure about that.
