Zorluk: KolaySoftware-Defined Architectures: Overlay, Underlay, and Fabric

In a Cisco Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) architecture, which function is strictly the responsibility of the physical underlay network?

  1. Providing underlying IP connectivity to ensure reachability between fabric nodes.Cevap
  2. B
    Encapsulating user data packets inside VXLAN headers for virtual network transport.
  3. C
    Maintaining the mapping database between Endpoint Identifiers (EIDs) and Routing Locators (RLOCs).
  4. D
    Enforcing role-based access control policies using Scalable Group Tags (SGTs).

Cevap

Providing underlying IP connectivity to ensure reachability between fabric nodes.
The underlay network provides basic, robust Layer 3 unicast IP reachability between all fabric nodes (such as fabric edge switches and control plane nodes) using traditional routing protocols.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the primary definition of the underlay in software-defined network architectures.
The underlay is the physical infrastructure (switches, routers, links) and IGP routing protocols.
The underlay exists to establish basic Layer 3 IP reachability across all physical network devices.
2
Differentiate underlay transport from overlay fabric services.
Encapsulation (VXLAN), control plane mapping (LISP), and policy enforcement (Cisco TrustSec/SGTs) operate in the overlay built on top of the underlay.
Keeping transport functions in the underlay decouples physical topology from virtual fabric services.
