   A leaf switch in an EVPN-VXLAN fabric receives a Type 2 route with an RT that does not match any of its configured import RTs. What will the leaf switch do with this route?

   • AModify the RT and install the route
   • BIgnore the route and not install it in the VRF
   • CSend the route to the spine for further processing
   • DInstall the route in the VRF and use it for forwarding

   In a multi-homed EVPN setup, which identifier is used to ensure that a remote leaf switch can recognize that two or more paths belong to the same multi-homed Ethernet segment, thereby enabling multipath load balancing?

   • AMAC Address
   • BRoute Target (RT)
   • CEthernet Segment Identifier (ESI)
   • DVXLAN Network Identifier (VNI)

   A network engineer is configuring EVPN-VXLAN for a pair of leaf switches that are multi-homed to the same access switch. The engineer wants to ensure that when one leaf fails, the other leaf can immediately take over forwarding for the attached hosts. Which configuration is essential for this fast convergence?

   • AEnable EVPN multipath on both leaves.
   • BAssign the same Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI) to both leaf switches for the shared segment.
   • CConfigure different route targets for each leaf to isolate their routes.
   • DUse a unique route distinguisher for each leaf.

   A network administrator is troubleshooting an EVPN-VXLAN deployment where hosts in the same VLAN but on different leaf switches cannot communicate. The administrator checks the BGP table on a leaf and sees MAC routes from the remote leaf, but they are not being installed in the forwarding table. Which EVPN route type is used to advertise MAC addresses and their associated IP addresses?

   • AType 4 (Ethernet Segment)
   • BType 3 (Inclusive Multicast)
   • CType 2 (MAC/IP Advertisement)
   • DType 5 (IP Prefix)

   Two leaf switches are connected to the same access switch using EVPN. The network team wants to ensure that if one leaf fails, the other leaf can immediately take over forwarding for the hosts on that segment. What is the role of the ESI in this scenario?

   • AIt filters which routes are imported.
   • BIt ensures MAC address uniqueness.
   • CIt load-balances traffic across the two leaves.
   • DIt identifies the multi-homed segment and enables fast convergence.
