   In Asymmetric IRB, what is the data path for inter-subnet traffic when using a distributed gateway?

   • AThe egress VTEP routes the packet and forwards it to the destination host.
   • BThe ingress VTEP sends the packet to a centralized router, which routes it and forwards it to the egress VTEP.
   • CThe ingress VTEP routes the packet to the destination subnet and forwards it over VXLAN to the egress VTEP.
   • DThe ingress VTEP bridges the packet at L2 and forwards it to the egress VTEP without routing.

   In Asymmetric IRB, how does intra-subnet traffic flow between two hosts on the same VXLAN segment but attached to different VTEPs?

   • AThe ingress VTEP routes the packet at Layer 3 and forwards it to the egress VTEP.
   • BThe ingress VTEP bridges the frame at Layer 2 and forwards it over VXLAN to the egress VTEP.
   • CThe ingress VTEP sends the frame to a centralized router, which then forwards it to the egress VTEP.
   • DThe ingress VTEP drops the frame because it cannot handle intra-subnet traffic.

   What is the primary role of Asymmetric IRB in a VXLAN EVPN deployment?

   • ATo provide Layer 3 routing between VXLAN segments without requiring a centralized router.
   • BTo provide Layer 2 bridging only, with no routing capability.
   • CTo eliminate the need for a control plane protocol like EVPN.
   • DTo replace VXLAN with a simpler tunneling protocol.
