300-415 Question 15
Select 3An organization is deploying a Cisco SD-WAN solution and wants to use vManage to handle centralized management tasks. During the initial setup, the team observes that newly added WAN Edge devices are not visible in vManage. Which of the following actions must the team take to ensure the devices are managed correctly?
- A
Ensure that the WAN Edge devices have been onboarded using valid device serial numbers or token files.
- B
Verify that vManage is synchronized with vBond and vSmart controllers.
- C
Configure proper VPN segmentation for the WAN Edge devices using vManage templates.
- D
Check that the WAN Edge devices have a valid and reachable TLOC IP address.
- E
Ensure that vManage has the correct certificates installed and is part of the same SD-WAN fabric.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, E
Explanation
For vManage to manage WAN Edge devices, the devices must first be onboarded using valid serial numbers or tokens. Additionally, vManage must be properly synchronized with the vBond and vSmart controllers to facilitate device information exchange. Lastly, vManage must have the correct certificates installed to authenticate itself as part of the SD-WAN fabric. These steps collectively ensure that devices are visible and manageable in vManage.
- A. Correct.
WAN Edge devices must be onboarded using valid device serial numbers or token files to establish trust and enable management by vManage.
- B. Correct.
vManage must be synchronized with vBond and vSmart to ensure proper communication and device visibility across the SD-WAN fabric.
- C. Incorrect.
While VPN segmentation is important, it is not a prerequisite for the initial visibility of WAN Edge devices in vManage.
- D. Incorrect.
TLOC IP addresses are relevant for data plane communication but are not directly related to the initial issue of device visibility in vManage.
- E. Correct.
vManage must have the correct certificates installed and be part of the same SD-WAN fabric to ensure secure communication with other controllers and devices.
