QuestionQ54

Data Center Network Design

Which two statements are accurate about using BGP as the underlay routing protocol in an IP fabric?

Choose two
  • A Static routes are required for EBGP neighbors to establish.
  • B EBGP underlay requires the multipath multiple-as parameter with the corresponding load-balancing policy.
  • C Route Reflection can be used in an IBGP underlay to increase control plane scalability.
  • D Using an IGP is required for an EBGP underlay.
Explanation

In an EBGP IP fabric, BGP multipath with the multiple-as option permits equal-cost paths received from EBGP peers in different autonomous systems to be installed for load balancing. An IBGP underlay can use route reflectors to avoid the full mesh of IBGP peerings, improving control-plane scalability.
