QUESTION 1
Which statement is correct about a 3-stage campus fabric IP Clos?
A. The distribution layer is connected to the access layer.
B. The distribution layer is connected to the core layer.
C. The core layer is connected to the access layer.
D. The core layer devices are connected to each other.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Junipers official Campus Fabric IP Clos design for Mist Wired Assurance defines
that the 3-stage IP
Clos topology eliminates the traditional distribution layer entirely. This
architecture is intended for
smaller campus environments that do not need an intermediate distribution layer
between the access and core.
oeJunipers Wired Assurance supports 3-Stage and 5-Stage IP Clos deployments. The
3-Stage IP Clos is
targeted towards deployments that do not require a Distribution Layer and have
smaller scale requirements.
Because the distribution layer is not present, the only hierarchical connection
in a 3-stage campus
fabric is between the core and access layers. Traffic is routed directly at the
access layer, and each
access switch acts as a Layer-3 gateway (IRB) for its VLANs.
oeIn a campus fabric IP Clos architecture, Mist provisions Layer-3 (L3)
integrated routing and bridging
(IRB) interfaces on the access layer. All the access switches are configured
with the same IP address for each L3 subnet.
Additionally, the Juniper documentation explains that point-to-point links are
configured between
layers, and in the case of the 3-stage design (with no distribution), this means
between the core and access devices:
oeThe point-to-point links between each layer utilize addressing to conserve
addresses.
Therefore, the correct statement is C: The core layer is connected to the access
layer.
Options A and B incorrectly mention a distribution layer that does not exist in
this topology.
Option D is incorrect because core (spine) devices in a Clos fabric are not
interconnected with each other.

QUESTION 2
Which three steps should be part of the campus fabric deployment? (Choose
three.)
A. Define the physical connections.
B. Define the networks of interest.
C. Configure the DNS server.
D. Choose the topology.
E. Configure the group-based policy (GBP) tag.
Answer: A, B, D
Explanation:
According to the Juniper Mist AI for Wired Campus Fabric IP Clos Deployment
Workflow, deploying
a campus fabric involves a defined sequence of planning and configuration steps
within the Mist
Cloud interface. The key stages include:
oeTo deploy a campus fabric, you must first define the topology type, identify
the physical connections
between devices, and define the networks of interest that will be extended
across the fabric.
Breaking this down:
Choose the topology (D): Selecting the correct fabric type (3-Stage or 5-Stage
IP Clos) determines
how access, distribution, and core switches will interconnect.
Define the physical connections (A): This step involves specifying the uplink
and downlink
relationships between switches so that Mist can auto-generate EVPN-VXLAN and
routing
configurations.
Define the networks of interest (B): These are the VLANs and subnets that need
to be extended
across the fabric for user and device connectivity.
Steps such as configuring DNS servers or defining GBP tags are not part of the
campus fabric
deployment workflow in Mist Wired; they are optional or separate configurations
outside the main
deployment flow.

QUESTION 3
What is the primary benefit of using switch configuration templates?
A. They improve the performance of switches.
B. They reduce Junos OS upgrade times.
C. They make it easier to make switch-specific configuration changes.
D. They provide a consistent configuration for all switches in an organization.
Answer: D
Explanation:
In Juniper Mist AI for Wired, configuration templates are a foundational part of
switch onboarding
and management. The primary purpose of these templates is to ensure
configuration consistency
across all switches that belong to a specific site or organization.
oeSwitch configuration templates allow administrators to define a standard
configuration that is
automatically applied to all switches within a site or organization, ensuring
consistency and reducing
configuration errors.
Templates can contain base configuration parameters such as NTP, syslog, VLANs,
port profiles, and
authentication settings. When new switches are onboarded to the Mist Cloud, they
automatically
inherit the templates configuration, ensuring uniform behavior across the
network fabric.
Option A is incorrect templates do not directly impact hardware performance.
Option B is incorrect templates are not related to upgrade times.
Option C is incorrect templates are used for uniformity, not for
switch-specific changes.
Option D correctly describes their main benefit ensuring consistent
configuration across all switches.

QUESTION 4
Referring to the exhibit, what is the purpose of the Save button in the
upper-right corner of the Mist dashboard?
A. It generates a backup of the current port configuration.
B. It resets the port configuration to its default settings.
C. It previews the impact of the port configuration changes before applying
them.
D. It applies the port configuration changes to the switch.
Answer: D
Explanation:
In the Juniper Mist AI for Wired dashboard, administrators can select one or
more switch ports (as
shown in the exhibit, e.g., port ge-0/0 on an EX4100-48MP). Once configuration
changes are
made such as VLAN assignment, port profiles, PoE settings, or administrative
state the Save
button must be clicked to confirm and apply those changes to the device.
oeWhen making configuration changes in the Mist switch interface, the Save
button must be used to
confirm the modifications. Clicking Save applies the selected port settings to
the switch through Mist Cloud.
Option A is incorrect: saving does not create a backup. Backups and snapshots
are handled through
Mists configuration archive, not via the Save button.
Option B is incorrect: Save does not reset configuration; instead, it commits
changes.
Option C is incorrect: there is no preview function tied to Save.
Option D is correct: the Save button is explicitly for applying configuration
changes to the selected
switch or port(s).

QUESTION 5
You have two sites connected to an EVPN network. Each site is using the
172.16.1.0 network for its own respective site.
How does EVPN prevent overlap in this scenario?
A. It elects a designated forwarder.
B. It uses a Layer 2 gateway.
C. It uses a route distinguisher.
D. It uses an Ethernet segment identifier (ESI).
Answer: C
Explanation:
EVPN, when used with VXLAN, leverages BGP MPLS/VXLAN control plane mechanisms.
To prevent
overlapping IP prefixes between different tenants or sites, EVPN uses a Route
Distinguisher (RD).
oeIn EVPN-VXLAN, the route distinguisher (RD) makes routes unique when
overlapping IP prefixes or
MAC addresses are advertised between multiple tenants or sites.
