Multiple Choice

Refer to the exhibit. A customer wants to replace the core and aggregation layer of an existing network.

However, the customer cannot eliminate the aggregation layer at this point. What should the architect recommend?

• A) Create a backplane stack at the aggregation layer and a VSF fabric at the core.
• B) Implement broadcast filtering on switch-to-switch links across all of the buildings.
• C) Combine all switches in the aggregation layer and core into a single backplane stack.
• D) Use VRRP on the core and aggregation switches, with the aggregation switches acting as standby.
