Question

Which set of elements are verified by the controller to confirm the identity of edge devices?

Options

Acertificates, organization name, and serial number of the device
Borganization name, serial number, and system IP of the device
Ccertificates, organization name, and vBond domain
Dcertificates, system IP, and vBond domain

Explanation

Cisco SD-WAN controllers verify the identity of edge devices during the onboarding process by confirming their certificates, organization name, and serial number.

Common mistakes.

B. System IP is a logical identifier within the overlay assigned after authentication, not a primary element used for initial identity verification during the certificate-based authentication process.
C. vBond facilitates initial connection, but the 'vBond domain' is not directly verified by the controller to confirm the edge device's identity in the same manner as certificates, organization name, and serial number.
D. System IP is not used for initial identity verification, and vBond domain is not a core element for identity confirmation by the controller in this context.
