300-420 Exam Dumps : Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (ENSLD) v1.1

The branch subnets must each support up to 200 hosts, so /120 is the correct IPv6 prefix length from the available options. A /120 provides 256 IPv6 addresses, which satisfies the 200-host requirement. A /121 provides only 128 addresses, which is not enough. The parent block is 2a01:0c30:0016:7009::3800/118. A /118 has 10 host bits, so it contains 1024 addresses and spans from ::3800 through ::3bff. The valid /120 boundaries inside that parent are ::3800/120, ::3900/120, ::3a00/120, and ::3b00/120. From the listed choices, 2a01:0c30:0016:7009::3a00/120 and 2a01:0c30:0016:7009::3b00/120 both fall inside the parent allocation and provide enough address capacity. The /121 options are too small, and ::3c00/120 is outside the /118 parent range. This is a straightforward IPv6 prefix-boundary and capacity calculation. Reference topics: IPv6 subnetting, prefix length, address block boundaries, branch address planning.

The border node is part of the Cisco SD-Access overlay architecture. In the SD-Access fabric, the overlay consists of fabric roles and services that provide endpoint connectivity, segmentation, policy, and external reachability over the routed underlay. Border nodes connect the fabric overlay to external Layer 3 networks, shared services, WAN, Internet, or other fabric/transit domains. They perform the fabric boundary function, including routing between virtual networks and external routing domains as designed. Spine and leaf are generic data center or fabric topology terms and are not the named SD-Access fabric overlay roles in this question. Cisco DNA Center, now Cisco Catalyst Center, is central to management, automation, assurance, and policy deployment, but it is not itself an overlay forwarding component. The forwarding overlay is built from roles such as edge, border, control-plane, and intermediate nodes. Therefore, the correct component from the options is the border node. The design should select border placement based on external connectivity, scale, route control, redundancy, and whether the border is internal, external, or anywhere border. Reference topics: SD-Access overlay, border node, fabric roles, external connectivity, virtual networks.

The company must configure a summary route on R1. The branch routers must remain normal EIGRP routers, and auto-summary is not allowed, so the scalable design choice is manual summarization at the hub. Cisco EIGRP documentation states that manual summarization can be configured on an interface using the ip summary-address eigrp command and can summarize routes on almost any bit boundary. In a DMVPN hub-and-spoke topology, a hub summary reduces the number of individual routes advertised to branches, limits routing-table growth, and helps contain EIGRP queries. It also keeps branch configuration simple because the branches do not need to be converted to stub routers to meet this specific requirement. Disabling split horizon is a common DMVPN Phase 2 consideration when the hub must advertise spoke routes back out the same multipoint tunnel interface, but it does not summarize HQ routes. A multipoint interface is already implied by DMVPN, and disabling the SIA timer is not a design solution. Reference topics: EIGRP manual summarization, DMVPN hub design, no auto-summary, query containment.
