After creating a CA-signed keyring for HTTPS access in Cisco UCS Manager, the next step is to create a trusted point.This action associates the keyring with a certificate and designates the certification authority (CA) that will be recognized as valid for the system

In the context of configuring two Cisco Nexus 7000 series switches to support OTV, Option A is the correct answer. The configuration involves setting up an Edge Device with specific interface ethernet and IP address settings. The commands provided in Option A are consistent with the requirements for configuring an OTV join interface on Cisco Nexus 7000 series switches. These commands ensure that the Edge Devices are properly configured to communicate over the OTV.

During the Install Server Firmware stage of a Firmware Auto Install upgrade through Cisco UCS Manager, the components that are upgraded include the Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Servers and the Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Servers. This stage uses host firmware packages to upgrade all servers and their components in the Cisco UCS domain.All servers whose service profiles include the selected host firmware packages are upgraded to the firmware versions in the selected software bundles1.

To implement traffic monitoring for a server vNIC with fabric failover enabled, ensuring that traffic is sent to an analyzer even during a fabric interconnect failure, the correct configuration is to create two traffic monitoring sessions with different names, one per fabric, and connect an analyzer on each FI as the destination for the monitoring session local to the FI.This setup allows continuous monitoring because if one fabric interconnect fails, the other can still send traffic to its connected analyzer2.

To meet the high-security standards, the engineer should configure port security and fabric binding on VSAN 50. Port security prevents unauthorized devices from logging into the fabric by automatically learning and securing the World Wide Port Names (WWPNs) of devices connected to the switch ports. Fabric binding allows only authorized switches to join the fabric by creating a list of switch WWNs that are permitted to join a specific VSAN.

NAS functions in an existing IP environment which is one of its advantages over SAN. SAN typically requires a separate network infrastructure, while NAS can be deployed on the existing IP network, leading to cost savings and simplified management.

To establish a VSAN trunk between Switch 1 and Switch 2, you would typically configureE PortwithTrunk Mode On. This is because Switch 1 is already configured with an E port in Trunk Mode Auto, and for trunking to be established, the other switch should also be set to trunk mode but with a static configuration (On) to ensure compatibility and trunk formation.

Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) is a feature used in IP multicast routing that ensures multicast traffic is sent back to the receiver efficiently and without looping. In the context of a content delivery network (CDN) sending video traffic, when a receiver requests traffic through an IGMP join message, the multicast routing device uses RPF to populate the multicast routing table with the correct source (S) and group (G) information. RPF checks the source of the incoming packet against the multicast routing table and forwards the packet only if it arrives on the interface that leads back to the source. This mechanism prevents traffic loops and ensures that the multicast distribution device sends the required traffic back to the receiver along the most efficient path.

To configure a single Cisco APIC controller for Cisco ACI fabric for the first time, you need to configure the first Cisco APIC controller (B) and register the switches that are discovered through LLDP (D). The initial configuration of the APIC is crucial as it sets up the controller with the necessary settings to manage the ACI fabric.Registering the switches through LLDP allows the APIC to recognize and manage the fabric switches, which is essential for the ACI fabric to function correctly.Reference: Cisco's official documentation on setting up an ACI fabric1, and the Cisco APIC Basic Configuration Guide2.
