The correct answer is A: vSmart. vSmart is the SD-WAN policy controller that receives centralized policies configured in vManage and distributes them to WAN Edge routers via OMP.

Policies

Question

An engineer is configuring a centralized policy to influence network route advertisement. Which controller delivers this policy to the fabric?

Options

  • AvSmart
  • BvManage
  • CWAN Edge
  • DvBond

Explanation

vSmart is the SD-WAN policy controller that receives centralized policies configured in vManage and distributes them to WAN Edge routers via OMP.

Common mistakes.

  • B. vManage is where policies are authored and managed through the GUI, but it does not directly deliver policies to WAN Edge routers - that distribution function belongs exclusively to vSmart.
  • C. WAN Edge routers are the recipients of policy pushed from vSmart; they enforce policy locally but do not distribute policy to other fabric devices.
  • D. vBond handles zero-touch orchestration and initial authentication of devices joining the fabric; it does not distribute routing or data plane policies.

Concept tested. vSmart controller as centralized policy distribution point
