350-601 Question #335: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

An engineer must implement a disaster recovery policy for the Cisco UCS infrastructure. The solution must meet these criteria: - The Recovery Point Objective must be 48 hours. - The backup must use encrypted transmission. - The Recovery Time Objective must be 4 hours. Which configuration set must be used in the scheduled backup to meet these requirements?

Options

• AProtocol: FTP
• BProtocol: SFTP
• CProtocol: TFTP
• DProtocol: SCP

Explanation

To implement a Cisco UCS disaster recovery policy that requires encrypted transmission for backups, the SCP protocol must be used.

Common mistakes.

• A. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) transmits data and credentials in plaintext, making it unsuitable for encrypted transmission.
• B. SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) does provide encrypted transmission, but SCP is also a valid and commonly used secure protocol in UCS environments.
• C. TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) transmits data and credentials in plaintext, making it unsuitable for encrypted transmission.
