What is the primary purpose of a Route Distinguisher (RD) in an EVPN-VXLAN overlay?

To select the best path among multiple EVPN routes

To make MAC and IP routes unique across different VXLAN overlays

To control which routes are imported into a VRF

To identify the VXLAN VNI for the route

Which EVPN route type is responsible for discovering remote VTEPs and building the multicast tunnel used for broadcast, unknown-unicast, and multicast (BUM) traffic?

Ethernet Auto-Discovery (Type 1)

An enterprise is deploying EVPN-VXLAN across multiple sites. They want to ensure that only the leaf switches in the same VXLAN segment receive MAC routes from each other. Which configuration controls which routes are imported by a leaf?

Route target (RT) import/export policies

Route distinguisher (RD) assignment

A data center runs an EVPN-VXLAN fabric with two spine switches and four leaf switches. Each leaf is dual-homed to both spines. The network team wants to ensure that traffic from a server connected to Leaf-1 to a server connected to Leaf-2 is load-balanced across both spine switches. Which configuration is required to achieve this?

Configure a unique route distinguisher for each leaf's VXLAN overlay.

Enable EVPN multipath and ensure that both spine paths are advertised as equal-cost in BGP.

Assign different route targets to each spine's EVPN routes.

Configure the same ESI on the two links from each leaf to the spines.

A network engineer is troubleshooting an EVPN-VXLAN fabric where traffic from a dual-homed server is not being load-balanced across the two leaf switches. The server is connected to both leaves via a multi-chassis link aggregation group (MC-LAG). The engineer suspects that the EVPN control plane is not advertising the server's MAC address correctly. Which EVPN route type is used to advertise the MAC address of a host attached to a multi-homed segment?

Part of the Campus EVPN-VXLAN domain, which makes up ~11% of our current practice bank. Juniper Networks does not publish an official question count, but from its 90-minute exam (~35–60 total, ~4–7 in this domain), expect 1–2 from this objective — we provide 21 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
