Explanation

Cisco SD-WAN Compatible Devices

Cisco SD-WAN (formerly Viptela) supports a specific range of platforms that can run the IOS-XE SD-WAN software. The ASR 1000 (B) is a supported WAN edge router in the Cisco SD-WAN solution, capable of running IOS-XE SD-WAN as a vEdge/WAN edge device, and the IR8300 (C) is an Industrial Router that also supports Cisco SD-WAN, designed for ruggedized/industrial deployments.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• ISR 2900 (A): Too old - the 2900 series reached end-of-life and does not support IOS-XE SD-WAN software
• FTD 1120 (D): This is a Firepower Threat Defense (firewall/NGFW) device, part of Cisco's security portfolio, not the SD-WAN routing portfolio
• ASR 9000 (E): This is a service provider core/edge routing platform designed for large carrier networks, not a supported SD-WAN WAN edge device

Memory Tip: Think "SD-WAN = WAN Edge Routers." If the device is a firewall (FTD), a legacy/EOL router (2900), or a SP core router (ASR 9000), it's out. Focus on platforms explicitly listed in Cisco's SD-WAN compatibility matrix, including ASR 1000 and ruggedized industrial routers like the IR8300.
