The correct answer is B. No. Asymmetric IRB routes packets in the ingress VTEP and then bridges packets in the egress VTEP. This means that the ingress VTEP performs both Layer 2 and Layer 3 lookups, while the egress VTEP performs only Layer 2 lookup. The statement is false because it confuses routing with…
Question
The architect designs a spine and leaf network for a single data center that will use multiple leaf switches as Virtual Tunnel End Points (VTEP).

Explanation
Asymmetric IRB routes packets in the ingress VTEP and then bridges packets in the egress VTEP. This means that the ingress VTEP performs both Layer 2 and Layer 3 lookups, while the egress VTEP performs only Layer 2 lookup. The statement is false because it confuses routing with bridging in the egress VTEP.
