A large enterprise is deploying Catalyst SD-WAN with multiple vSmart controllers for redundancy. They notice that after a vSmart failure, edge devices take a long time to re-establish control connections. The network team wants to minimize this downtime. What should they do?

Use vBond to load balance between vSmart controllers

Configure edge devices with multiple vSmart controller IPs

Increase the number of vSmart controllers

Which of the following is a recognized limitation of the Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN solution?

It requires a dedicated MPLS circuit at every site

It introduces additional licensing costs for controllers and edge devices

It can only be deployed on Cisco hardware, not on virtual appliances

It cannot integrate with existing MPLS networks

A retail chain with hundreds of stores wants to prioritize Office 365 traffic over general internet traffic on their SD-WAN links. They also want to automatically reroute traffic if the primary link degrades. Which feature combination should they implement?

Application-aware routing with SLA classes

Direct internet access with local egress

OMP route filtering with prefix lists

Centralized policy with TLOC preference only

How does Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN improve WAN agility for an enterprise?

By requiring all sites to use the same transport provider

By using a single dedicated circuit for all WAN traffic

By allowing new sites to be added quickly using centralized configuration and zero-touch provisioning

By eliminating the need for any WAN edge routers at branch sites
