   A switch was provisioned, and the configuration shows the value '10.10.10.10' for the NTP server. However, the site variable 'ntp_server' is defined as '10.10.10.20'. The template references '{{ntp_server}}'. What is the most likely explanation?

   • AThe site variable is defined at the organization level with the value '10.10.10.10'.
   • BThe template was applied before the site variable was updated.
   • CThe switch's NTP configuration was manually changed after provisioning.
   • DA device-level variable 'ntp_server' is defined with the value '10.10.10.10'.

   An administrator is creating a configuration template for new access switches. The template references a variable named '{{uplink_ports}}'. After assigning the template to a site and provisioning a switch, the switch comes online but the uplink interface configuration is missing. The variable 'uplink_ports' was defined at the site level. What is the most likely cause of the missing configuration?

   • AThe site variable was defined after the switch was already provisioned.
   • BThe template was not assigned to the switch's site.
   • CThe switch model does not support the interface type specified in the variable value.
   • DThe variable name in the template does not exactly match the variable name defined in the portal.

   A network engineer is deploying 50 EX2300 switches across three buildings. Each building has a different management VLAN ID, but all switches in a building share the same management VLAN. The engineer creates a site-level variable named 'mgmt_vlan' and assigns the value 100 to the site. However, switches in Building B need VLAN 200. The engineer wants to avoid creating a separate site for Building B. What is the most efficient way to override the site-level value for only the Building B switches?

   • ACreate a second site-level variable named 'mgmt_vlan_b' with value 200 and reference it in the template for Building B switches.
   • BCreate a device-level variable named 'mgmt_vlan' with value 200 and assign it to each Building B switch.
   • CChange the template to use a hard-coded value of 200 for the management VLAN on all switches.
   • DEdit the site-level variable 'mgmt_vlan' to value 200, then manually change it back to 100 after provisioning Building B.
