The command show interface veth 705 is telling you that the bound interface is Ethernet 3/1/2 What is the location of the blade that has veth 705 associated to it?

Question

Options

• AChassis 3, Slot 1
• BChassis 3. Slot 2
• CThere is not enough information
• DChassis 1. Slot 2

• A
  84% (27)
• B
  3% (1)
• C
  3% (1)
• D
  9% (3)

Explanation

Option A is correct because the bound interface Ethernet 3/1/2 follows the standard chassis-based switch notation of Chassis/Slot/Port - meaning Chassis 3, Slot 1, Port 2. The veth binding tells you exactly where the physical blade resides by reading the first two numbers of the interface identifier.

Why the distractors fail:

• B (Chassis 3, Slot 2) - misreads the second digit; the slot is 1, not 2
• D (Chassis 1, Slot 2) - swaps both the chassis and slot numbers entirely
• C (Not enough information) - incorrect; the X/Y/Z notation is self-contained and provides all necessary location data

Memory tip: Think of Ethernet X/Y/Z as a postal address - Chassis/Slot/Port reads left to right, just like Country/City/Street. When you see 3/1/2, stop at the second number for the slot - don't drift to the third.
