An administrator is deploying EVPN multi-homing with all-active mode on an MX Series router. Which configuration element uniquely identifies the provider edge (PE) router's attachment circuit to an Ethernet segment?
2You are troubleshooting a suboptimal traffic forwarding issue in an EVPN-VXLAN fabric with multi-homed devices. Traffic destined for a multi-homed server is being sent to only one of the PEs despite all-active mode being configured. Which EVPN route type and mechanism are responsible for enabling load balancing across all available PEs attached to the same Ethernet segment?
3You are configuring a Junos EVPN-VXLAN environment where Type-3 (Inclusive Multicast Ethernet Tag) routes are being exchanged. A remote MX router is failing to establish ingress replication tunnels because it does not import the Type-3 route. Which configuration statement under the routing-instance is missing or misconfigured?
4An administrator notices that broadcast, unknown unicast, and multicast (BUM) traffic sent from a local host is looping back to the originating multi-homed PE when using an all-active Ethernet segment. Which mechanism prevents this loop in EVPN?
5During a maintenance window, an administrator needs to manually force a Designated Forwarder (DF) role change on a multi-homed Ethernet segment for an EVPN instance. Which parameter must be adjusted to influence the DF election algorithm in Junos OS?
6When configuring VXLAN data plane encapsulation inside an EVPN routing instance on Junos OS, which logical interface type must be bound to the bridge domain to provide VXLAN VNI mapping?
7Which specific EVPN route type is responsible for carrying IP prefix routes, often used for inter-subnet forwarding in an IP-VRF-to-EVPN integration scenario?
8An engineer is troubleshooting EVPN type 2 routes between two MX Series routers and notices that MAC addresses learned locally are not being advertised to the remote VTEP. Which command should the engineer use to verify that the EVPN instance is actively generating and exporting MAC-VRF routes?
9When configuring centralized gateway or distributed gateway routing models in an EVPN-VXLAN environment, how does a distributed gateway using Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) interfaces operate regarding default gateway functionality?
10An enterprise network architect is designing an EVPN-VXLAN fabric and wants to ensure that MAC address churn (frequent moving of a MAC between ports) does not destabilize the control plane. Which feature should be enabled in the EVPN instance?
11An engineer is verifying MAC learning behavior in an EVPN instance. A remote host's MAC address is learned via BGP Type 2 routes, but when the local host sends traffic to it, the packet drops. The engineer runs 'show route table bgp.evpn.0' and sees the route. What is the most likely reason the packet is dropping in the data plane?
12Which BGP address family must be enabled under the BGP neighbor configuration to exchange EVPN routes between PE routers?
13Which EVPN route type is known as the Ethernet Segment Route and is advertised by a PE router to signal its connectivity to a multi-homed Ethernet segment?
14Which Junos configuration hierarchy is used to define an EVPN routing instance of type 'evpn'?
15You are integrating an EVPN-VXLAN fabric with an existing MPLS L3VPN backbone using a data center gateway. Which route type allows seamless translation and communication of prefix routes between the EVPN instance and the IP-VRF MPLS VPN backbone?
16An engineer is troubleshooting a newly configured EVPN-VXLAN multi-homed setup where the Designated Forwarder (DF) is constantly toggling between two PE routers. What is the most likely cause of this DF churn?
17Which EVPN route type is responsible for advertising MAC addresses combined with IP addresses (MAC/IP Advertisement Route)?
18You are designing an EVPN network with active-active multi-homing. A host sends traffic to a multi-homed PE. The PE receives the traffic on a designated link. How does EVPN suppress unnecessary flooding across the core for unknown unicast traffic originating from a multi-homed site?
19You are analyzing BGP EVPN updates and observe an Extended Community attached to a Type-2 route containing a sequence number. What is the primary function of this MAC Mobility Extended Community?
20An administrator wishes to configure VXLAN data plane encapsulation on an MX Series router with an EVPN instance. Which statement under the routing-instances hierarchy defines the local VTEP source interface?
21Which EVPN route type is responsible for establishing ingress replication lists for Broadcast, Unknown Unicast, and Multicast (BUM) traffic?
22You are troubleshooting a scenario where an MX Series router running an EVPN-VXLAN instance receives Type-2 routes from a remote PE, but the local data plane fails to install the forwarding entries because of a mismatch in encapsulation types. Where is the encapsulation type for VXLAN defined within a Junos EVPN instance?
23An administrator configures EVPN with VXLAN encapsulation and wants to ensure that interfaces assigned to bridge domains drop frames whose source MAC address is not learned or is unauthorized. Which feature should be enabled?
24Which command allows an operator to view the local and remote MAC addresses learned via EVPN control plane and data plane across all bridge domains on an MX Series router?
25An engineer configures an EVPN instance with multiple bridge domains. Each bridge domain requires a unique VNI. Where are the VNI values mapped to their respective bridge domains in Junos OS?
26Which TWO of the following statements regarding EVPN Route Type 1 (Ethernet Auto-Discovery Route) are correct? (Choose two)
27Which TWO of the following statements accurately describe EVPN Route Type 2 (MAC/IP Advertisement Route)? (Choose two)
28When configuring EVPN multi-homing in all-active mode, which THREE key components or concepts must be properly established across the PE routers? (Choose three)
29When troubleshooting EVPN control plane connectivity in Junos OS, which THREE commands provide essential diagnostic information regarding EVPN routing tables and peers? (Choose three)
30Which THREE parameters are typically included or evaluated when configuring and verifying BGP EVPN peer sessions on Junos OS devices? (Choose three)
31Which TWO of the following characteristics apply to EVPN Route Type 3 (Inclusive Multicast Ethernet Tag Route)? (Choose two)
32Which THREE of the following statements describe the behavior and purpose of EVPN Route Type 5 (IP Prefix Route)? (Choose three)
33Which TWO factors can cause an EVPN instance on a Junos device to fail in importing incoming Type-2 MAC/IP routes? (Choose two)
34When designing an EVPN-VXLAN fabric with integrated routing and bridging (IRB), which THREE considerations are critical for proper inter-subnet forwarding across VTEPs? (Choose three)
35Which THREE actions occur during the EVPN Designated Forwarder (DF) election process on a multi-homed Ethernet segment? (Choose three)
36Which TWO of the following statements correctly describe the operation and benefits of EVPN MAC mobility? (Choose two)
37Which TWO statements describe characteristics of EVPN All-Active Multi-Homing compared to Single-Active Multi-Homing? (Choose two)
