An SD-WAN data center is configured with multiple WAN links. The administrator wants to ensure that mission-critical traffic is always sent over the most reliable link, while less critical traffic can use any link. What is the best way to achieve this?

Use a single link for all traffic to ensure reliability

Use SD-WAN policies to steer traffic based on application and link quality

Use equal-cost multi-path routing to load-balance all traffic

Use static routing to send all traffic over the most reliable link

An SD-WAN data center is configured with a hub-and-spoke topology. The administrator wants to ensure that if the primary hub fails, the secondary hub can take over without manual intervention. What is required?

Use a static route to the secondary hub

Use a dynamic routing protocol to automatically fail over to the secondary hub

Manually switch to the secondary hub when the primary fails

Configure the secondary hub with the same configuration as the primary

Two data centers are located in the same metropolitan area. They need a DCI solution that provides very low latency and high bandwidth for storage replication. Which option is most suitable?

Dark fiber or wavelength service

A company is interconnecting data centers in different countries. They need to ensure data sovereignty and low latency for local users. What DCI approach should they consider?

Use a public cloud provider's global network

Use a single data center for all users

Use a single internet connection for all data centers

Use local data centers in each country and interconnect them with a private DCI
