300-415 · Question #172
Refer to the exhibit. vManage and vSmart have an issue establishing a connection to vBond. Which configuration resolves the issue? vManage system system-ip 10.11.11.1 host-name vManage site-id 1 clock
The correct answer is D. Reconfigure the system-ip parameter on vSmart to 11.1.1.2.. The primary issue preventing vManage and vSmart from connecting to vBond is the duplicate 'system-ip' address shared between vManage and vSmart.

Why each option
The primary issue preventing vManage and vSmart from connecting to vBond is the duplicate 'system-ip' address shared between vManage and vSmart.
Controllers' VPN 0 interfaces establish connectivity but do not typically have 'tunnel interface' configurations with a 'color of transport' in the same way WAN Edge routers do.
While timezone mismatches can sometimes cause issues with certificate validation, the most direct and severe problem here is the duplicate system-ip address, which fundamentally breaks controller identification and communication.
The IP addresses on the eth1 interfaces are already configured and appear to be valid within their respective subnets, so configuring them again would not resolve the duplicate system-ip issue.
The 'system-ip' parameter must be unique for each SD-WAN controller and WAN Edge device. Both vManage and vSmart are currently configured with the same 'system-ip 10.11.11.1', which prevents proper control plane adjacency and connection establishment. Reconfiguring vSmart's system-ip to a unique value, such as 11.1.1.2 (its interface IP), resolves this critical conflict.
