Wired AssurancedefinesSLEs (Service Level Expectations)to provide measurable performance indicators for wired networks. These metrics identify root causes of network degradation by monitoring switch health, connection success, and throughput performance.

“Juniper Mist Wired Assurance delivers AI-driven insights across key wired SLEs including Successful Connects, Throughput, and Switch Health, giving visibility into user experience and switch performance.”

Option A (Capacity):Incorrect — capacity is used in wireless SLEs, not wired.

Option B (Successful Connects):Correct— tracks connection success rate and anomalies.

Option C (Switch Health):Correct— monitors hardware, software, and PoE status.

Option D (Coverage):Incorrect — pertains to wireless SLEs.

Option E (Throughput):Correct— measures data transfer rate, latency, jitter, and loss.

Group-Based Policy (GBP)is a Juniper EVPN-VXLAN feature that enablesmicrosegmentationwithout requiring multiple VRFs or VLANs. It is implemented within Juniper Mist’sWired Assurance and Campus Fabricframeworks.

“GBP provides scalable, identity-based segmentation for campus fabrics and is supported on EX4100 and EX4400 Series switches operating in EVPN-VXLAN mode under Mist management.”

The feature requires hardware and software support forEVPN-VXLAN and GBP tagging, which is currently available on specific EX models managed by Mist Cloud.

Option A:Correct— GBP requires compatible access switches, specifically EX4100 and EX4400 models.

Option B:Incorrect — GBP is centrally managed through Mist Cloud, not configured per switch.

Option C:Incorrect — GBP is provisioned via Mist Cloud, not the CLI.

Option D:Incorrect — GBP is not supported onallEVPN-capable switches; only on defined platforms (EX4100/EX4400).

According to Juniper Networks' validated designs for campus fabrics, the campus fabric core-distribution with edge-routed bridging (ERB) is the optimal architecture when high volumes of east-west traffic are present and access switches are restricted to Layer 2 operations. In an ERB design, the EVPN-VXLAN fabric extends from the core switches to the distribution switches.1 The critical differentiator is the placement of the default gateways (Integrated Routing and Bridging or IRB interfaces). In the ERB model, these gateways are moved from the core to the distribution layer, which effectively acts as the "edge" of the EVPN fabric.

By placing the Layer 3 gateways at the distribution layer, inter-VLAN (east-west) traffic is routed closer to the endpoints.2 This prevents the "hairpinning" effect found in Centrally-Routed Bridging (CRB) architectures, where traffic must travel all the way to the core layer to be routed between subnets before returning down to the distribution and access layers. This reduction in latency and core-link utilization is essential for modern campus environments with high server-to-server or client-to-client traffic patterns.

Furthermore, this architecture specifically accommodates Layer 2 access switches. In the ERB core-distribution model, the access switches are not part of the EVPN-VXLAN overlay; instead, they connect to the distribution tier using standard Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) or ESI-LAG. This allows organizations to leverage existing legacy or lower-tier access switches that do not support advanced VXLAN capabilities while still benefiting from a robust, scalable EVPN-VXLAN fabric at the distribution and core layers.5 In contrast, while the campus fabric IP Clos also excels at handling east-west traffic, it requires the access switches themselves to perform VXLAN encapsulation/decapsulation (acting as VTEPs), which contradicts the requirement for access switches to operate only at Layer 2.
