Three of the 306 questions in this pack

Question 1

What is an advantage of using OTV as compared to VPLS for data center redundancy?

  1. prevents loops on point-to-point links
  2. provides head-end replication
  3. uses a proactive MAC advertisement
  4. provides full-mesh connectivity
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. uses a proactive MAC advertisement

OTV uses proactive MAC advertisement, meaning MAC addresses are learned and advertised before traffic flows, which enables efficient forwarding across overlay networks. This is fundamentally different from VPLS which relies on reactive MAC learning. Proactive MAC advertisement allows OTV to optimize traffic paths and avoid flooding, making it superior for data center redundancy scenarios.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Loop prevention on point-to-point links is not a specific OTV advantage over VPLS; both protocols handle this.
  • B. Head-end replication is a feature of some multicast protocols but not a distinguishing characteristic of OTV over VPLS.
  • D. Full-mesh connectivity is a characteristic of both OTV and VPLS overlay networks, not unique to OTV.

Question 2

Which multicast rendezvous point redundancy mode is valid for Bidirectional PIM?

  1. Embedded RP
  2. Phantom RP
  3. MSDP
  4. PIM anycast RP
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. Phantom RP

Bidirectional PIM cannot use Anycast RP or MSDP because it builds shared trees without source registration. RP redundancy for Bidir-PIM is achieved with Phantom RP, where the RP address is an unused address on a subnet advertised with different prefix lengths by two routers, so routing picks the backup if the primary fails.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Embedded RP is an IPv6 method for encoding the RP address in the group address and does not provide redundancy.
  • C. MSDP shares active source information between PIM-SM RPs and has no role in Bidir-PIM, which has no source registration.
  • D. PIM Anycast RP relies on source registration between RPs, which Bidir-PIM does not use.

Question 3

An engineer deploys LISP VM mobility. Which feature is configured on the interfaces that have VM mobility enabled?

  1. IP redirects
  2. flow control
  3. proxy ARP
  4. HSRP
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. proxy ARP

Proxy ARP is configured on interfaces with LISP VM mobility enabled. Proxy ARP allows the LISP infrastructure to respond to ARP requests on behalf of mobile VMs, enabling seamless mobility by intercepting ARP queries and providing the appropriate responses without requiring the VM to send gratuitous ARP messages.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. IP redirects are not related to LISP VM mobility configuration.
  • B. Flow control is a link-layer feature unrelated to LISP VM mobility.
  • D. HSRP is a first-hop redundancy protocol, not a component of LISP VM mobility.

  1. Bennett –

    If you have a short time, like only 3 to 4 weeks for exam preparation, then you should consider buying Cert Stash exam dumps. In my case, I had only 4 weeks to prepare and wasn’t well-prepared before buying the dumps. But when I purchased Cert Stash exam dumps, they helped me by providing a structured roadmap for preparation. They also cleared my basic concepts about the exam overview. With their help, I was able to prepare easily, and now I can proudly say that I am a certified DCID.

What makes the DCID hard

DCID v1.2 changed its own title: the exam is now Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure for Traditional and AI Workloads, and the AI half is not decoration. The first objective in the biggest domain is AI and ML concepts, training versus inference, GPUs, DPUs and SmartNICs, and the network requirements that follow. An older v1.1 bank has none of that.

Network design is 35% of the exam: RoCEv2, Ethernet versus InfiniBand and RDMA for high-performance fabrics, lossless Ethernet QoS, Layer 2 options with vPC and LACP, VXLAN EVPN for data centre interconnect, and management and redundancy strategies including Nexus Dashboard. Compute at 25% covers UCS Ethernet and storage connectivity, fabric interconnect modes, direct-attached FC and FCoE, and UCS-X design for AI and ML. Storage network design covers iSCSI multipathing, FC and iSCSI QoS, and storage for high-performance networks. Automation covers Intersight, NX-API, Ansible, Python and Terraform.

About the exam

300-610 (Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure for Traditional and AI Workloads v1.2, DCID) earns the Cisco Certified Specialist, Data Center Design certification and counts as the concentration exam for CCNP Data Center. It covers data centre network design including AI and ML workloads, compute design with UCS, storage network design, and automation design. No prerequisites.
