NEW QUESTION # 17 
Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is troubleshooting a physical configuration issue in Cisco NFVI. Which two observations should be made? (Choose two.)
- A. Two RAID 1 disks failed.
- B. The node is no longer functional.
- C. The node is still functional.
- D. One RAID 1 disk failed.
- E. The node allows two disks to fail.
Answer: C,D
Explanation:
From the RAID controller output:
* TheRAID1virtual drive is shown as"Dgrd" (degraded)with a note:"RAID 1 in degraded state."
* In thePD LIST, one disk (slot 2) is marked"UGood - active disk in slot 2 disconnected from drive group 0", while the other (slot 3) is"Onln 0"(online and part of drive group 0).
This means:
* In aRAID 1mirror, onlyone diskmay fail while the array remains available.
* Here,one disk has failed/disconnected, the other is still online # the array isdegraded but operational.
Therefore:
* B. One RAID 1 disk failed- correct.
* C. The node is still functional- correct; RAID1 can tolerate a single disk failure.
The other options are incorrect:
* A and Esuggest two disk failures, which is not indicated.
* Dwould be true only if both disks failed; with one disk still online, the node continues to function, though in a degraded state.

NEW QUESTION # 23 
Refer to the exhibit. An engineer working for a private service provider with an employee ID 5207:22:409 must configure iBGP multipath load sharing across the three paths. Which two commands must be run on the PE router? (Choose two.)
- A. router bgp 101
- B. ip load-sharing per-destination
- C. maximum-paths ibgp 3
- D. ip load-sharing ibgp 3
- E. router bgp 100
Answer: C,E
Explanation:
In the diagram, thePE and R2, R3, R4, R5belong toAS 100. The PE router runs BGP processAS 100, so its BGP configuration must start with:
router bgp 100
To performiBGP multipath load sharingacross three equal-cost internal BGP paths, BGP must be instructed to keep and use multiple iBGP paths in the routing table. This is done with:
router bgp 100
maximum-paths ibgp 3
* maximum-paths ibgp 3 tells BGP to install up tothreeiBGP paths to the same prefix, enabling CEF to load-share across those paths.
* router bgp 100 is required because the PE is inAS 100, not 101.
Other options:
* ip load-sharing per-destination affects CEF behavior but does not enable BGP iBGP multipath by itself and is not specific to three iBGP paths.
* ip load-sharing ibgp 3 is not a valid IOS BGP command.
* router bgp 101 would configure the wrong AS and break the iBGP relationships shown in AS-100.
Thus, the correct commands on the PE to achieve iBGP multipath load sharing over the three internal paths are maximum-paths ibgp 3androuter bgp 100, corresponding toA and E.

NEW QUESTION # 29 

Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is troubleshooting an issue where switch LEAF-SW-1 and switch LEAF- SW-2 receive corrupted forwarding and learning information about each other. LEAF-SW-1 and LEAF-SW-2 are configured with BGP EVPN VTEP. Which action resolves the issue?
- A. On each switch, ensure the same BGP router ID is configured.
- B. On each switch, run the delete suppress-arp command against interface nve1.
- C. On LEAF-SW-1, run the host-reachability protocol bgp command against interface nve1.
- D. On each switch, configure a different secondary IP address against interface loopback0.
Answer: C
Explanation:
In a VXLAN BGP EVPN fabric, each VTEP (NVE interface) must useBGP EVPN as the host-reachability protocolso that MAC/IP information and VTEP reachability are exchanged through the control plane.
From the exhibit:
* LEAF-SW-1 - interface nve1
* source-interface loopback0
* No host-reachability protocol bgp
* Host Learning Mode: Data-Plane in show nve interface
* LEAF-SW-2 - interface nve1
* source-interface loopback0
* host-reachability protocol bgp configured
This mismatch causes one VTEP to rely ondata-plane flood-and-learn, while the other usesEVPN BGP control-plane learning, leading to inconsistent and "corrupted" MAC/IP and ARP/ND information between the leaf switches.
The fix is to configure LEAF-SW-1 to also use BGP for host reachability:
interface nve1
host-reachability protocol bgp
Options B and D are incorrect because anycast VTEP designs intentionally share the sameprimaryloopback IP while usingdifferent secondary IPsandunique BGP router IDs. Option A (removing suppress-arp) does not correct the control-plane mismatch.
Therefore, enabling host-reachability protocol bgp on LEAF-SW-1 (OptionC) resolves the issue.
