300-415 · Question #340
What problem happens on a device with two serial numbers, a unique device identifier (UDI), and a secure unique device identifier (SUDI) when an engineer provisions ISR 4000 by PnP using only a UDI?
The correct answer is D. It encounters redirection problems. When an ISR 4000 has both a UDI and a SUDI and PnP provisioning is configured using only the UDI, the device encounters redirection problems because the PnP server cannot correctly correlate and redirect the device during the claim process.

Why each option
When an ISR 4000 has both a UDI and a SUDI and PnP provisioning is configured using only the UDI, the device encounters redirection problems because the PnP server cannot correctly correlate and redirect the device during the claim process.
Interface buffer overflow is a hardware-layer issue unrelated to PnP identity resolution or the dual-serial-number condition.
Memory overload is a resource-level problem unrelated to PnP provisioning logic or identifier mismatches.
Spanning tree issues are Layer 2 loop-prevention concerns completely unrelated to the PnP zero-touch provisioning process.
Cisco PnP uses the device identifier to perform a redirect to the correct provisioning server. When two identifiers exist (UDI and SUDI) but only the UDI is registered, the PnP agent on the device may present the SUDI during the connection, causing the PnP server to fail to match the device and produce redirection failures. This mismatch disrupts the automated zero-touch provisioning workflow.
