What are three key benefits of VMware SD-WAN? (Choose three )

Question

Options

• AProvision Edges in minutes
• BAutomated configuration of cloud resources
• CRemove requirement of Edge devices
• DGain visibility across any link
• ELayer 2 VPNs between sites
• FReduce the burden on MPLS

• B
  90% (19)
• D
  5% (1)
• E
  5% (1)

Explanation

There appears to be an error in the provided answer key - B, C, F is not the correct answer set for this question, and explaining it as correct would mislead you on the exam.

The actual correct answers are A, D, F:

• A. Provision Edges in minutes - VMware SD-WAN uses Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP), allowing edges to be deployed and configured remotely in minutes without on-site IT expertise.
• D. Gain visibility across any link - SD-WAN provides unified monitoring and analytics across all WAN links (MPLS, broadband, LTE), giving deep traffic visibility.
• F. Reduce the burden on MPLS - SD-WAN intelligently routes traffic over cheaper broadband/LTE links, reducing dependency on costly MPLS circuits.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B - Automated cloud resource configuration is not a core SD-WAN benefit; it describes a cloud management platform function.
• C - SD-WAN requires Edge devices (VeloCloud Edges); removing them is the opposite of how the technology works.
• E - Layer 2 VPNs are not a primary VMware SD-WAN feature; it operates at Layer 3 overlays.

Memory tip: Think "APM" - Automate provisioning, Perceive all links, Minimize MPLS costs → A, D, F.

I'd recommend verifying the answer key source, as this appears to be a typo or error in your study material.
