Network Fundamentals

How are the switches in a spine-and-leaf topology interconnected?

  • A Each leaf switch is connected to one of the spine switches
  • B Each leaf switch is connected to each spine switch.
  • C Each leaf switch is connected to two spine switches, making a loop.
  • D Each leaf switch is connected to a central leaf switch, then uplinked to a core spine switch.
Explanation

In a spine-and-leaf topology, the fabric is built so that every leaf switch connects to every spine switch. This provides predictable equal-cost paths and consistent latency between any two leaf switches across the fabric.
