300-415 Question 79
Select 3Your organization is planning to deploy Cisco SD-WAN controllers on-premises. Which of the following considerations are essential to ensure a successful deployment?
- A
Allocate appropriate compute and storage resources for vManage, vBond, and vSmart controllers.
- B
Ensure that the on-premises controllers are deployed without security certificates for simplicity.
- C
Verify that all controllers have IP connectivity and are reachable by SD-WAN edge devices.
- D
Configure and synchronize a local NTP server for accurate timekeeping across all controllers.
- E
Avoid redundancy for vBond to minimize initial deployment complexity.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
Deploying Cisco SD-WAN controllers on-premises involves ensuring the infrastructure is equipped with the necessary resources, maintaining secure and synchronized communication, and following best practices for availability and reliability. Proper resource allocation, IP connectivity, and NTP configuration are critical for a successful deployment.
- A. Correct.
Correct: Deploying on-premises controllers requires sufficient compute and storage resources to ensure reliable operation and scalability.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Security certificates are critical for authentication and secure communication between controllers and edge devices in the SD-WAN architecture.
- C. Correct.
Correct: IP connectivity is fundamental to allow communication between controllers and edge devices for proper SD-WAN functionality.
- D. Correct.
Correct: Time synchronization via NTP is essential for certificate validation and log consistency across the SD-WAN environment.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Redundancy is crucial for high availability and should not be avoided, even in the initial deployment phase.
