300-415 Question 136
Select 2You are tasked with configuring a Transport Locator (TLOC) for a remote site in your Cisco SD-WAN deployment. The site requires redundancy using multiple transport types (MPLS and Internet). Which two key parameters must be correctly configured on the TLOC to ensure proper communication between the devices at this site and the rest of the SD-WAN fabric?
- A
Color and encapsulation
- B
System IP address of the remote site
- C
Transport interface associated with the TLOC
- D
BGP AS number for the remote site
- E
Public IP address of the centralized vSmart controller
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C
Explanation
Transport Locators (TLOCs) are essential in Cisco SD-WAN for defining the transport characteristics of a WAN edge router. To configure a TLOC, parameters such as 'color' (transport type) and 'encapsulation' (e.g., IPsec) must be specified. Additionally, the transport interface that the TLOC is associated with is required to enable communication over that transport. These configurations ensure that the SD-WAN fabric can route traffic efficiently and maintain redundancy across multiple transports.
- A. Correct.
The color and encapsulation define the transport type (e.g., MPLS or Internet) and the encapsulation protocol (e.g., IPsec). These are critical parameters for TLOC configuration.
- B. Incorrect.
The system IP address of the remote site is not directly configured as part of the TLOC. It is part of the overall device configuration but not specific to TLOCs.
- C. Correct.
The transport interface is the physical or logical interface associated with the TLOC. It is essential for forwarding traffic and establishing connections.
- D. Incorrect.
The BGP AS number is not relevant to TLOC configuration. It is used in routing configurations but is unrelated to the TLOC functionality.
- E. Incorrect.
The public IP address of the vSmart controller is not a required parameter for TLOC configuration. It is used for control plane communications and not directly tied to TLOCs.
