A network team needs to deploy a new configuration to 200 switches. The deployment must be done in a controlled manner, with the ability to pause and resume, and must include validation that the configuration was applied correctly. The team has a CI/CD pipeline. Which approach should be used?

Use the 'configure replace' command on each switch with a file from a TFTP server.

Use Ansible with a rolling update strategy, deploying to a subset of switches at a time and validating each subset before proceeding.

Use a Python script to deploy to all switches simultaneously.

Manually configure each switch and use 'show running-config' to verify.

A data center manager wants to implement a configuration management solution to reduce the risk of configuration drift and improve troubleshooting. Which benefit is most directly achieved by implementing configuration management?

It ensures that all switches have the same hardware capabilities.

It automatically optimizes network performance by adjusting configurations.

It eliminates the need for manual configuration changes.

It provides a baseline for comparing configurations to detect unauthorized changes.

A data center team needs to deploy a new VLAN configuration to 50 Nexus switches. The change must be rolled out during a maintenance window, and the team wants to ensure that the deployment is consistent and can be verified. The team has a Python environment with access to the switches via SSH. Which approach best meets the requirements?

Use the 'copy running-config tftp' command on each switch to upload the new configuration.

Manually configure each switch using the CLI during the maintenance window.

Write a Python script using Netmiko to push the VLAN configuration to each switch sequentially and log the output.

Create a configuration file and use the 'configure replace' command on each switch to load it.

A network engineer is about to implement a change to the spanning-tree configuration on a core switch. The change has been approved, but the engineer wants to ensure that the change can be rolled back quickly if issues arise. The switch has the 'archive' feature enabled. What should the engineer do before making the change?

Save the running configuration to the startup configuration using 'copy running-config startup-config'.

Disable the spanning-tree feature temporarily to avoid issues.

Create a checkpoint using the 'checkpoint' command in the archive feature.

Take a screenshot of the current configuration for reference.

Two Nexus switches are configured as a vPC pair. The engineer notices that the vPC consistency parameters are not matching, causing one of the vPCs to be suspended. The engineer needs to identify the mismatched parameters and correct them. Which command should be used to see the specific parameters that are inconsistent?

'show vpc consistency-parameters'
