Question

What is a function of spine-and-leaf architecture?

A offers predictable latency of the traffic path between end devices
B mitigates oversubscription by adding a layer of leaf switches
C exclusively sends multicast traffic between servers that are directly connected to the spineD.limits payload size of traffic within the leaf layer

Explanation

A spine-and-leaf design provides a consistent, low-hop path between endpoints because traffic commonly crosses the same number of switching tiers through the fabric. That uniform path structure is what makes latency more predictable between end devices.
