300-415 Question #366: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is B: Policy configuration starting with 'policy sla-class VOICE_TRAFFIC latency 50 loss 5' and specifying `preferred-color mpls` with `backup-sla-preferred-color biz-internet`.. This question asks to identify the best control policy configuration for voice traffic, prioritizing MPLS with a backup, to ensure reliability and avoid blackholing.

Policies

Question

A customer requires reliability for voice traffic and has MPLS, biz-Internet, and public-Internet transports. Which control policy configuration maintains a better SLA and avoids blackholing of voice traffic?

Options

  • APolicy configuration starting with 'policy sla-class VOICE_TRAFFIC latency 0' and specifying preferred-color mpls.
  • BPolicy configuration starting with 'policy sla-class VOICE_TRAFFIC latency 50 loss 5' and specifying preferred-color mpls with backup-sla-preferred-color biz-internet.
  • CPolicy configuration starting with 'policy sla-class VOICE_TRAFFIC latency 150 loss 5' and specifying preferred-color mpls with backup-sla-preferred-color biz-internet.
  • DPolicy configuration starting with 'policy sla-class VOICE_TRAFFIC latency 150 loss 5' and specifying preferred-color mpls (no backup color shown).

Explanation

This question asks to identify the best control policy configuration for voice traffic, prioritizing MPLS with a backup, to ensure reliability and avoid blackholing.

Common mistakes.

  • A. A latency of 0 is an unrealistic and unachievable SLA requirement, making this policy ineffective or constantly failing. It also lacks a backup SLA preferred color, risking blackholing.
  • C. A latency of 150 ms is generally too high for real-time voice traffic, which typically requires much lower latency for good quality, making this SLA less suitable for voice.
  • D. A latency of 150 ms is too high for voice traffic, similar to C. Additionally, it lacks a backup-sla-preferred-color, which is crucial for reliability and avoiding blackholing when the primary preferred color fails or degrades.

Concept tested. SLA class configuration for voice traffic with preferred and backup colors
