VNX100 Exam Dumps : Versa Certified SD-WAN Associate

To implement a third-party application server as a virtual machine on a Versa CPE, the Service Chain Template should be used. This is because the Versa uCPE solution supports service chaining capabilities which are necessary for steering traffic to and from third-party virtual network functions (VNFs) to Versa Operating System (VOS) instances. The Versa uCPE solution can manage the lifecycle of third-party VNFs, including the ability to bring up an out-of-band management interface for each VM, connecting it to the Versa secure management channel, and routing management and control plane traffic accordingly​​.

In the architecture of Versa SD-WAN, the control plane plays a crucial role in the discovery and management of network topology:

• SD-WAN topology is discovered using MP-iBGP (Answer B): Versa utilizes Multi-Protocol Interior Border Gateway Protocol (MP-iBGP) for the discovery and management of the SD-WAN topology. This protocol helps in the efficient exchange of routing information within the network, enabling the Versa Director and other network components to maintain an updated view of network topology.
• Versa Private Address Family is used to advertise topology information (Answer C): This unique address family within Versa’s ecosystem is specifically designed to handle and distribute topology information across the network. It ensures that all relevant Versa devices are aware of the network structure and any changes to it.

References:These elements of Versa’s SD-WAN control plane are detailed in the technical specifications and white papers provided by Versa Networks, which explain the underlying mechanisms that support network operations and topology management within Versa’s infrastructure.

Versa Director acts as an orchestrator within the Versa SD-WAN ecosystem, providing centralized configuration management and monitoring of controllers, branch sites, and hubsites. It does not function as a log forwarder, BGP route reflector, or VPN concentrator. As an orchestrator, it manages the lifecycle of Versa VOS instances, enabling zero-touch provisioning and other orchestration functionalities through a single pane of glass.
