How does Cisco DNA Center enhance network automation?

Question

Options

• AIt allows network administrators to quickly deploy Cisco Layer 2 devices without requiring STP
• BIt allows network administrators to reduce inconsistencies when they deploy and validate network
• CIt allows network administrators to reduce the number of VRFs in a multi customer environment
• DIt allows network administrators to combine voice and data networks into a single topology

• A
  3% (2)
• B
  90% (57)
• C
  5% (3)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

Cisco DNA Center is a network management and automation platform designed to streamline how administrators deploy, manage, and validate network configurations at scale - making B correct because its core value proposition is eliminating human error and configuration drift through intent-based networking, templates, and automated validation workflows.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is wrong because DNA Center doesn't eliminate STP requirements for Layer 2 devices; STP is a protocol concern independent of the management platform.
• C is wrong because reducing VRFs is a network design choice, not a DNA Center automation feature - VRF count is determined by segmentation requirements, not the management tool.
• D is wrong because converging voice and data is a network architecture decision (unified communications) that predates and is unrelated to DNA Center's automation capabilities.

Memory tip: Think of DNA Center's motto as "consistent and correct at scale" - whenever you see a choice about reducing inconsistencies or ensuring uniform deployments across many devices, that's the DNA Center sweet spot. If a choice talks about protocol behavior (STP), topology design (VRFs, voice/data), it's likely a distractor pulling you toward unrelated networking concepts.
