A service provider is planning to deploy Unified MPLS (seamless MPLS) across access, aggregation, and core domains. The provider wants to use Segment Routing (SR) as the label distribution mechanism. Which consideration is critical for successful inter-domain SR operation?

RSVP-TE must be used for inter-domain label distribution.

Each domain must run a separate IGP with its own SRGB, and no inter-domain label exchange is needed.

The SRGB must be consistent across all domains, and inter-domain SIDs must be distributed via BGP.

LDP must be used in the access domain to interoperate with SR in the core.

A service provider is designing a new MPLS core. The provider has a mix of routers that support Segment Routing and older routers that only support LDP. The provider wants to enable SR on the newer routers while maintaining interoperability with the older LDP-only routers. Which strategy should the provider use?

Enable SR on all routers and disable LDP

Disable SR and use LDP on all routers

Enable SR on the newer routers and LDP on the older routers, and configure SR-to-LDP interworking on the border routers

A mobile operator is deploying a 5G standalone (SA) core. The operator wants to support network slicing to provide low-latency services for industrial IoT. Which 5GC network function is responsible for selecting the appropriate slice and managing session continuity?

AMF (Access and Mobility Management Function)

AUSF (Authentication Server Function)

SMF (Session Management Function)
