Explanation

EVPN with VRF-based segmentation is the right choice because it's purpose-built for multi-tenant network isolation over shared physical infrastructure - EVPN (Ethernet VPN) provides the control plane for distributing MAC/IP reachability, while VRFs (Virtual Routing and Forwarding instances) create logically separate routing tables per tenant, ensuring departments can't communicate unless explicitly allowed.

Why the distractors fail:

• A. VLAN Tagging - VLANs provide basic Layer 2 segmentation but don't scale well for large multi-tenant environments and don't provide the routing isolation needed across a full data center fabric.
• C. SNMP Monitoring - This is a network monitoring/telemetry protocol, not a segmentation or isolation mechanism at all.
• D. DHCP Relay - This forwards DHCP requests across subnets; it's an addressing helper, not an isolation or tenancy feature.

Memory tip: Think of EVPN+VRF as "each tenant gets their own virtual router inside the same physical box" - if the question mentions multi-tenant, isolation, and shared infrastructure together, VRF-based segmentation is almost always the answer, because VRFs are the standard mechanism for traffic separation at Layer 3 in modern fabric designs.
