A university has 200 access switches across 10 buildings. Each building has a unique set of VLANs, but all switches within a building share the same port profiles. The network team wants to minimize administrative overhead while maintaining the ability to make building-specific changes. They also need to occasionally override settings on a single switch for special events. What is the most effective template strategy?

Create a separate template for every switch, even though most switches in a building are identical.

Use only device-specific templates for all switches, ignoring group templates entirely.

Create one template per building with the building's VLANs and port profiles, assign it to the switches in that building, and use device-specific templates for rare single-switch overrides.

Create a single global template with all VLANs from all buildings and assign it to every switch.

What happens when a template is applied to a switch in Mist Wired Assurance?

The configuration is saved but not pushed until the switch reboots

The configuration is only stored in the Mist cloud for reference

The configuration is pushed to the switch and becomes active

The switch must be manually configured to accept the template

Which benefit is directly achieved by using templates for switch configuration in Mist Wired Assurance?

Automatically configures routing protocols without user input

Reduces configuration inconsistencies across similar devices

Eliminates the need for network monitoring

Ensures all switches have identical hostnames

What is the purpose of a port profile in a template?

To specify the VLAN and security settings for a port

To monitor port traffic statistics

To assign an IP address to a port

To define the physical characteristics of a port, such as speed and duplex

What is the result of assigning a template to a switch that already has a different template assigned?

The new template replaces the old one

The switch keeps both templates and uses the one with higher priority
