Which design consideration is most important when supporting a large number of IoT devices?

Scalability to handle a high volume of devices and connections

Multicast support for all IoT traffic

Low latency for real-time voice

High bandwidth for video streaming

Which of the following is a business constraint that can influence network design decisions?

The maximum latency allowed for a financial trading application

The ability to monitor network utilization in real time

The number of VLANs supported by the access switches

The requirement to comply with industry regulations such as PCI DSS

Why is it important to align network design with the organization's budget?

Because budget determines the technical protocols that can be used

Because budget is the only factor that determines network reliability

Because the design must be affordable to implement and maintain over its lifecycle

Because budget is a technical constraint that limits bandwidth

A company is designing a WAN to connect two data centers for storage replication. The application requires a sustained throughput of 8 Gbps with a round-trip latency of less than 5 ms. The available WAN options are: (1) a 10 Gbps MPLS service with a CIR of 8 Gbps, and (2) a 10 Gbps dark fiber connection. The MPLS service is significantly cheaper. Which option should the architect choose?

Choose the MPLS service and use compression to reduce the data volume and meet the throughput requirement.

Choose the MPLS service and use QoS to prioritize the replication traffic to ensure the latency requirement is met.

Choose the MPLS service because it meets the throughput requirement and is cheaper.

Choose the dark fiber because it provides dedicated bandwidth and predictable latency.
