Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
1. Order Cloud Interconnect, 2. Create VLAN attachment, 3. Complete cross-connect, 4. Configure BGP session, 5. Verify connectivity
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must first order the connection, then create a VLAN attachment to define the logical link, then complete the physical cross-connect, then configure BGP to establish routing, and finally verify everything works.
- ✗
1. Create VLAN attachment, 2. Order Cloud Interconnect, 3. Complete cross-connect, 4. Configure BGP session, 5. Verify connectivity
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot create a VLAN attachment without first placing an order for Cloud Interconnect, as the VLAN attachment references the interconnection resources.
- ✗
1. Order Cloud Interconnect, 2. Complete cross-connect, 3. Create VLAN attachment, 4. Configure BGP session, 5. Verify connectivity
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the cross-connect should be completed after creating the VLAN attachment; the VLAN attachment provides the necessary IP addressing and cloud-side configuration for the physical link.
- ✗
1. Order Cloud Interconnect, 2. Configure BGP session, 3. Create VLAN attachment, 4. Complete cross-connect, 5. Verify connectivity
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because BGP configuration requires the VLAN attachment and cross-connect to be in place first; BGP sessions cannot be established without a working Layer 2 connection.
