A developer is using the Cisco DNA Center SDK to retrieve network device details. The script must handle the case where the device is not found (HTTP 404) and where the API rate limit is exceeded (HTTP 429). The SDK raises exceptions for non-2xx responses. Which approach best satisfies the requirement?

Call the SDK method twice: once to check existence and once to retrieve details, avoiding the need for error handling.

Check the HTTP response code returned by the SDK method before processing the result.

Use a generic except Exception block and log the error, then continue the script.

Wrap the SDK call in a try/except block that catches the SDK's ApiError and inspects the status_code attribute to branch on 404 vs 429.

In the official Cisco SDK documentation, a developer finds a method signature that includes parameters with default values. What does this indicate about those parameters?

They are only used for internal SDK operations

They are required and must be explicitly provided

They are deprecated and should not be used

They are optional and can be omitted when calling the method
