300-435 Question 274
Single answerYou are troubleshooting a Cisco SD-WAN deployment where branch sites are experiencing intermittent connectivity issues. To identify the problem, you decide to use the vManage APIs to retrieve TLOC (Transport Locator) information. Which API endpoint would you use to retrieve the status of TLOCs, and what response should you expect to validate connectivity issues?
- A
/dataservice/device/control/connections
- B
/dataservice/device/tloc
- C
/dataservice/device/omp/routes
- D
/dataservice/alarms
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
To troubleshoot TLOC-related connectivity issues in a Cisco SD-WAN deployment via vManage APIs, you need to query the TLOC endpoint, '/dataservice/device/tloc'. This endpoint provides critical details about TLOC status, colors, and transport, enabling you to identify whether connectivity issues stem from TLOC failures or misconfigurations.
- A. Incorrect.
This endpoint retrieves control connections on devices, but it does not provide specific TLOC status details. While useful for understanding control plane connectivity, it is not ideal for troubleshooting TLOC issues directly.
- B. Correct.
This endpoint retrieves TLOC information such as status, color, and transport details. It is the correct choice when diagnosing TLOC-related connectivity problems in the deployment.
- C. Incorrect.
This endpoint retrieves OMP (Overlay Management Protocol) route information, which is related to data plane traffic routing but does not directly address TLOC status.
- D. Incorrect.
This endpoint retrieves alarm data from the vManage system. While alarms might indicate broader issues, it is not specific to TLOC status troubleshooting.
