What is the purpose of the fabric management plane in a Cisco SD-Access architecture?

Question

Options

• Acreate LISP-based EID for the end-to-end solution that is offered by SD-Access
• Benable automation techniques for device deployments and configurations
• Cenable EID-to-RLOC mapping that is based on the BGP protocol
• Dcreate an underlay network that is based on the IS-IS routing protocol

Explanation

Cisco SD-Access uses a three-plane model: data plane (VXLAN forwarding), control plane (LISP for EID-to-RLOC mapping), and management plane. The management plane is implemented by Cisco DNA Center (now Catalyst Center) and is responsible for automating the lifecycle of the fabric - including device onboarding (PnP/ZTP), intent-based policy configuration, software image management, and telemetry. Options A and C describe control plane functions (LISP EID registration and EID-to-RLOC mapping). Option D describes the underlay network, which uses IS-IS and is a separate concern from the management plane.
