300-415 Question #88: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is A: turn on "Enable TCP Optimization". Enabling TCP Optimization on the WAN Edge allows the SD-WAN fabric to proxy TCP connections and tune TCP behavior, improving throughput for connection-oriented traffic by reducing the impact of WAN latency.

Security and Quality of Service

Question

An engineer is tasked to improve throughput for connection-oriented traffic by decreasing round-trip latency Which configuration will achieve this goal?

Options

  • Aturn on "Enable TCP Optimization"
  • Bturn off "Enhance ECMP Keying"
  • Cturn off "Enable TCP Optimization"
  • Dturn on "Enhance ECMP Keying"

Explanation

Enabling TCP Optimization on the WAN Edge allows the SD-WAN fabric to proxy TCP connections and tune TCP behavior, improving throughput for connection-oriented traffic by reducing the impact of WAN latency.

Common mistakes.

  • B. Disabling Enhance ECMP Keying affects load-balancing hash inputs across equal-cost paths, but does not directly reduce RTT or improve TCP throughput.
  • C. Turning off TCP Optimization would leave TCP connections unoptimized across the WAN, worsening rather than improving throughput under high-latency conditions.
  • D. Enhance ECMP Keying improves flow distribution across multiple WAN links, but enabling it does not reduce round-trip latency or improve per-flow TCP throughput.
