   A Dell partner has run FastList for a customer's network refresh. The output includes a list of switches and a suggested configuration for the access layer. The partner notices that the recommended switch model has a higher port density than the customer currently needs. What is the most likely reason for this?

   • AFastList selected a switch that accommodates the customer's expected growth, as specified in the inputs
   • BFastList always recommends the highest port density switch available
   • CFastList made an error in the calculation
   • DThe partner entered the wrong number of users

   A Dell consultant is using FastList to scope a network for a customer that has a mix of wired and wireless users. The customer has provided the number of wired users, the number of wireless users, and the required bandwidth per user. However, they have not specified the number of access points needed, and they have a strict budget. The consultant needs to generate a proposal that meets the budget while still providing adequate coverage. What is the most appropriate approach?

   • ARun FastList with a lower bandwidth per user to reduce the number of access points
   • BRun FastList without the wireless user count to avoid generating access point recommendations
   • CAsk the customer to provide the exact number of access points before running FastList
   • DRun FastList with the provided inputs, then manually adjust the number of access points to meet the budget

   A Dell partner is scoping a network for a customer that has a mix of legacy and modern applications. The customer has provided the number of users, the required bandwidth, and the expected growth. However, they have not specified the types of applications that will run on the network. The partner needs to generate a proposal that is flexible enough to support both legacy and modern applications. What is the most appropriate way to use FastList in this scenario?

   • AAsk the customer to provide the exact application list before running FastList
   • BRun FastList without any inputs to get a generic recommendation that covers all application types
   • CRun FastList with a higher bandwidth per user to ensure the network can handle any application
   • DRun FastList with the provided inputs and then manually review the output to ensure it can support the expected application mix
