A Cisco ACI fabric is built to monitor and manage APIC devices using SNMP. Which action allows SNMP to receive traps from APIC controllers?

The correct answer is B. Permit UDP port 162 on the filter entry of the default subject. SNMP traps are sent from the APIC to the trap receiver using UDP port 162. To allow these traps to leave the APIC through the management EPG, the filter entry in the default subject must explicitly permit UDP/162, enabling the APIC to send SNMP traps successfully.
