Which two services does a Cisco APIC provide during the startup process of the Cisco ACI fabric? (Choose two.)

The APIC pushes the initial bootstrap configuration to newly discovered leaf and spine switches, enrolling them into the ACI fabric and applying base settings. This is a crucial step in fabric bring-up.

EIGRP is a routing protocol not directly provided by the APIC during initial fabric startup; ACI uses IS-IS internally for routing within the fabric.

CDP (Cisco Discovery Protocol) is used by switches for neighbor discovery, but the APIC itself does not 'provide' CDP as a service during startup; it leverages discovery mechanisms that use information from such protocols.

DNS is typically used for name resolution, but the APIC does not act as a DNS server for fabric device startup; its primary role involves IP address assignment and configuration.

The APIC acts as a DHCP server for fabric infrastructure interfaces, assigning IP addresses to the leaf and spine switches to enable their initial communication and discovery within the ACI fabric.
