BGP is the protocol used to advertise EVPN routes. EVPN routes are a new type of BGP network layer reachability information (NLRI) that carry MAC address and IP prefix information for Ethernet VPNs. EVPN routes are exchanged between PEs using BGP multiprotocol extensions (MP-BGP) over MPLS, VXLAN, SR, or SRv6 tunnels. EVPN routes enable PEs to learn the reachability of MAC addresses and IP prefixes of different sites within the same EVPN instance. EVPN routes also support various features such as fast convergence, redundancy, aliasing, and inter-subnet routing. The other options are incorrect because:

A. OSPF is wrong because OSPF is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) that is used to advertise IP routes within an autonomous system. OSPF is not used to advertise EVPN routes, which are a type of BGP NLRI that carry MAC address and IP prefix information for Ethernet VPNs.

C. IS-IS is wrong because IS-IS is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) that is used to advertise IP routes and MPLS labels within an autonomous system. IS-IS is not used to advertise EVPN routes, which are a type of BGP NLRI that carry MAC address and IP prefix information for Ethernet VPNs.

D. RIP is wrong because RIP is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) that is used to advertise IP routes within an autonomous system. RIP is not used to advertise EVPN routes, which are a type of BGP NLRI that carry MAC address and IP prefix information for Ethernet VPNs. References:

VXLAN VNIs are virtual network identifiers that are used to identify and isolate Layer 2 segments in the overlay network. VXLAN VNIs have the following characteristics:

VNIs can have over 16 million unique values. This is because VXLAN VNIs are 24-bit fields that can range from 4096 to 16777214, according to the VXLAN standard1. This allows VXLAN to support a large number of Layer 2 segments and tenants in the network.

VNIs identify a broadcast domain. This is because VXLAN VNIs are used to group the end hosts that belong to the same Layer 2 segment and can communicate with each other using VXLAN tunnels. The VXLAN tunnels are established using the VTEP information that is distributed by EVPN. The VTEPs are VXLAN tunnel endpoints that perform the VXLAN encapsulation and decapsulation. The VXLAN tunnels preserve the Layer 2 semantics and support the broadcast, unknown unicast, and multicast traffic within the same VNI2.

The following two statements are incorrect in this scenario:

VNIs identify a collision domain. This is not true, because VXLAN VNIs do not identify a collision domain, which is a network segment where data packets can collide with each other. VXLAN VNIs identify a broadcast domain, which is a network segment where broadcast traffic can reach all the devices. Collision domains are not relevant in VXLAN networks, because VXLAN uses MAC-in-UDP encapsulation and IP routing to transport the Layer 2 frames over the Layer 3 network1.

VNIs are alphanumeric values. This is not true, because VXLAN VNIs are numeric values, not alphanumeric values. VXLAN VNIs are 24-bit fields that can range from 4096 to 16777214, according to the VXLAN standard1. Alphanumeric values are values that contain both letters and numbers, such as ABC123 or 1A2B3C.

EVPN uses a route distinguisher (RD) value to identify which remote leaf device advertised the EVPN route. An RD is a 64-bit value that is prepended to the EVPN NLRI to create a unique VPNv4 or VPNv6 prefix. The RD value is usually derived from the IP address of the PE that originates the EVPN route. By comparing the RD values of different EVPN routes, a PE can determine which remote PE advertised the route and which VRF the route belongs to. The other options are incorrect because:

B. a community tag is wrong because a community tag is an optional transitive BGP attribute that can be used to group destinations that share some common properties. A community tag does not identify the source of the EVPN route.

C. a route target value is wrong because a route target (RT) value is an extended BGP community that is used to control the import and export of EVPN routes between VRFs. An RT value does not identify the source of the EVPN route.

D. a VRF target value is wrong because there is no such thing as a VRF target value in EVPN. A VRF is a virtual routing and forwarding instance that isolates the IP traffic of different VPNs on a PE. A VRF does not have a target value associated with it. References:

 According to the Juniper documentation1, a routing zone is an L3 domain, the unit of tenancy in multi-tenant networks. You create routing zones for tenants to isolate their IP traffic from one another, thus enabling tenants to re-use IP subnets. In addition to being in its own VRF, each routing zone can be assigned its own DHCP relay server and external system connections. You can create one or more virtual networks within a routing zone, which means a tenant can stretch its L2 applications across multiple racks within its routing zone. Therefore, the correct answer is D. routing zone. A routing zone is the construct within which you create virtual networks to achieve multitenancy for applications. References: Routing Zones

Device profiles are objects that associate a specific vendor model to a logical device in Juniper Apstra. Device profiles contain extensive hardware model details, such as form factor, ASIC, CPU, RAM, ECMP limit, and supported features. Device profiles also define how configuration is generated, how telemetry commands are rendered, and how configuration is deployed on a device. Device profiles enable the Apstra system to render and deploy the configuration according to the Apstra Reference Design12. References:

Device Profiles

Referring to the exhibit, the image shows the Racks table under the Staged menu in the Juniper Apstra UI. The Racks table displays the details of the racks that are used in the blueprint, such as the name, rack type, and date. The rack type is a resource that defines the type and number of leaf devices, access switches, and/or generic systems that are used in rack builds1. The image shows seven racks in the table, but only two rack types: BorderLeaf and ServerRack. Therefore, the statement D is correct in this scenario.

The following three statements are incorrect in this scenario:

A. six. This is not true, because there are not six rack types in the table, but only two. The number six corresponds to the number of racks that have the same rack type: ServerRack.

B. three. This is not true, because there are not three rack types in the table, but only two. The number three does not correspond to any relevant information in the table or the image.

C. seven. This is not true, because there are not seven rack types in the table, but only two. The number seven corresponds to the total number of racks in the table, not the rack types.

The leaf device in AS 65000 will receive three routes for the 10.100.0.0/16 prefix, one from each spine device in AS 65001, AS 65002, and AS 65003. Since ECMP load balancing is enabled, the leaf device will install all three routes in its routing table and distribute the traffic among them. The other options are incorrect because:

B. 1 is wrong because the leaf device will not receive only one route for the prefix. It will receive multiple routes from different spine devices and use ECMP to load balance among them.

C. 2 is wrong because the leaf device will not receive only two routes for the prefix. It will receive three routes from three spine devices, as explained above.

D. 4 is wrong because the leaf device will not receive four routes for the prefix. It will receive three routes from three spine devices, as explained above. The fourth spine device in AS 65004 is not directly connected to the leaf device and will not advertise the prefix to it. References:

Referring to the exhibit, the image shows a user interface of the Juniper Apstra software application, which is used for network management and configuration. The image shows the Virtual Networks table under the Resources menu, which displays the details of the VLANs and VXLANs in the network. The table has 11 columns, but only 9 are visible in the image. The other two columns are IPv6 Connectivity and IPv6 Subnet, which are hidden by default. To display the IPv6 subnets for all of the listed VXLANs, the user needs to select Columns, then select IPv6 Subnet. This will show the IPv6 Subnet column in the table, which will display the IPv6 addresses assigned to the VXLANs from the IPv6 pools.

According to the Juniper documentation1, a configlet is a configuration template that augments Apstra’s reference design with non-native device configuration. They consist of one or more generators. Each generator specifies a NOS type (config style), when to render the configuration, and CLI commands (and file name as applicable). Some applications for configlets include the following:

Syslog

SNMP access policy

TACACS / RADIUS

Management ACLs

Control plane policing

NTP

Username / password

Therefore, the correct answer is C and D. syslog configuration and NTP configuration. These are examples of non-native device configuration that can be added using a configlet. Static route configuration and policy configuration are not applicable in this scenario, because they are part of the reference design configuration that should not be replaced or modified by a configlet. References: Configlets (Datacenter Design), Configlet Examples (Design)
