   A company is deploying Dell SONiC switches in a high-security environment. The security policy requires that switches do not automatically download configurations from the network. However, the switches must be provisioned with a baseline configuration before being deployed. The administrator wants to use ZTP only for the initial deployment, but then disable it to prevent future automatic provisioning. What is the best approach?

   • ADisable ZTP from the start and manually configure each switch.
   • BUse ZTP for initial provisioning, then disable ZTP and save the configuration.
   • CUse ZTP but configure the provisioning server to require authentication.
   • DUse ZTP and rely on the network firewall to block access to the provisioning server after deployment.

   A network engineer is troubleshooting a Dell SONiC switch that failed ZTP. The switch is in factory-default state, and the DHCP server is providing option 66 with the provisioning server's IP address. The switch can ping the provisioning server from the management interface. However, ZTP status shows 'failed' with an error about 'invalid configuration file'. What is the most likely cause?

   • AThe switch's management interface is not configured with an IP address.
   • BThe DHCP server is not providing the correct option 66 value.
   • CThe provisioning server is not running a web server.
   • DThe configuration file is not in the correct format (e.g., JSON or CLI commands).
