What must be configured to visualize network topology in Fabric Composer?

Question

Options

• ADNS Resolution
• BNetwork Fabric Assignment
• CAccess Control Lists
• DIPsec Tunnels

• B
  90% (46)
• C

• D
  6% (3)

Explanation

Network Fabric Assignment (B) is required because Fabric Composer organizes devices into logical fabrics - without assigning network elements to a fabric, the tool has no structured scope from which to discover and render the topology. The assignment tells Fabric Composer which devices belong together, enabling it to map their interconnections visually.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (DNS Resolution) aids hostname lookup but is not a prerequisite for topology visualization; devices can be identified by IP.
• C (Access Control Lists) control traffic flow and permissions but do not define the logical groupings Fabric Composer needs to render a topology.
• D (IPsec Tunnels) are an encryption/tunneling mechanism and have no bearing on whether topology visualization is available.

Memory tip: Think of "Fabric Assignment" as enrolling devices into a class roster - until a student is on the roster, the teacher (Fabric Composer) can't see them. No assignment = no topology.
