Question
What is the size of SGT data in the metadata header?
Options
- A8 bits
- B16 bits
- C24 bits
- D32 bits
Explanation
The Security Group Tag (SGT) data, used for policy enforcement in Cisco TrustSec, is represented as a 16-bit value within the metadata header.
Common mistakes.
- A. An 8-bit SGT would only allow for 256 unique security groups, which is typically insufficient for complex enterprise segmentation needs.
- C. A 24-bit SGT is not the standard size defined for Security Group Tags in Cisco TrustSec implementations.
- D. A 32-bit SGT is not the standard size defined for Security Group Tags; while it would allow for a vast number of groups, it would also consume more overhead than necessary for its intended purpose.
