300-415 Question 188
Single answerAn enterprise is deploying Cisco SD-WAN with a topology that requires all branch sites to communicate directly with each other without routing traffic through a central hub. Which SD-WAN topology should the enterprise implement?
- A
Full Mesh Topology
- B
Hub-and-Spoke Topology
- C
Partial Mesh Topology
- D
Point-to-Point Topology
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
To meet the requirement for all branch sites to communicate directly without routing traffic through a central hub, a Full Mesh Topology is the appropriate choice. This topology ensures that each site has a direct connection to every other site, enabling seamless communication across the network.
- A. Correct.
Full Mesh Topology allows all branch sites to communicate directly with each other without routing traffic through a central hub, making it the correct choice for this scenario.
- B. Incorrect.
Hub-and-Spoke Topology routes all traffic through a central hub, which is not suitable for scenarios that require direct communication between branch sites.
- C. Incorrect.
Partial Mesh Topology allows some but not all sites to have direct communication. It does not satisfy the requirement that all branches must communicate directly with each other.
- D. Incorrect.
Point-to-Point Topology is used for direct connectivity between two specific sites, but it does not scale well to connect all branch sites directly.
