A) In an IP fabric, it's a fundamental design principle that each leaf switch should have a connection to each spine switch to ensure redundancy and optimal path utilization.

B) IP fabrics are typically built using open standards, which allow for vendor interoperability, providing flexibility in choosing hardware and software solutions from different vendors.

When a packet is encapsulated by VXLAN, a VXLAN Network Identifier (VNI) is placed in the VXLAN header. This VNI is crucial as it maps to the VLAN-ID, ensuring that the packet is correctly identified and routed within the overlay network.

If not all routers show up in the routing tables despite formed adjacencies in an EBGP setup, it's likely due to the lack of configuration of the 'multipath multiple-as' parameter. This parameter allows the use of multiple paths for BGP routes even when they originate from different ASes.

To achieve a lower oversubscription ratio in a spine-leaf architecture, you can increase the number of spine nodes (B) and increase the number of server-facing ports on each leaf node (C). This enhances the overall bandwidth and connectivity, leading to a better ratio of downstream to upstream traffic.

Setting the Virtual Chassis as auto-provisioned (A) and configuring the auto-sw-update parameter (D) are key to enabling plug-and-play functionality for line card switches in an active VCF. This ensures that new line cards are automatically recognized and updated to the correct Junos version without manual intervention.

ICCP (Inter-Chassis Control Protocol) is the protocol used to replicate forwarding information between MC-LAG (Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation Group) peers. It ensures coordination and consistency of state between the MC-LAG devices.

For a Data Center Interconnect (DCI) over an IP network, Layer 2 data needs to be encapsulated. This encapsulation, typically using VXLAN or similar technologies, allows Layer 2 traffic to traverse an IP network while preserving the Layer 2 information.
