An architect is designing a mixed-use rack in Apstra that contains 12 servers with dual 10GbE ports and 4 storage devices with dual 25GbE ports. The rack will have two ToR switches. The architect wants to use a single rack connectivity template. However, the template only supports a single port speed for all devices. What should the architect do?

Use two separate rack types: one for servers and one for storage, even though they are in the same physical rack.

Use the template as-is and connect all devices at the same speed, even if it means using 10GbE for storage.

Use the template and manually adjust the port speeds for the storage devices in the rack type.

Create a custom rack type from scratch instead of using a template.

Which components are typically included in a standard server rack design in Apstra?

Leaf switches, servers, and storage devices

Spine switches, leaf switches, and servers

Servers and storage devices only

When designing a mixed-use rack in Apstra, what must be considered?

The rack must include a spine switch to handle the increased traffic.

The rack must have a single leaf switch to simplify cabling.

The rack must use a separate management network for storage devices.

The rack must define connectivity for each device type, including servers and storage, to the leaf switches.

In a typical Apstra leaf-spine design, how does a ToR switch connect to the fabric?

It connects to a core router that provides access to the internet.

It connects only to other ToR switches in the same rack.

It connects directly to the spine switches.

It connects to a distribution switch that then connects to the spine.

What is the purpose of a mixed-use rack type in Apstra?

To allow a single rack to connect to multiple leaf-spine fabrics.

To provide both data and management connectivity in the same rack.

To support both IPv4 and IPv6 in the same rack.

To combine servers and storage devices in a single rack to save physical space.
