Cisco Exam 400-007 Topic 9 Question 36 Discussion

Actual exam question for Cisco's 400-007 exam

Question #: 36
Topic #: 9

Network changes because of mergers, acquisitions, and divestment can be very disruptive to the network if not carried out carefully. When an organization sells parts of its business, it must detach the affected parts of the network from the rest of the network. Which network design approach is appropriate to minimize the impact and risks as the divested parts of the network are detached?

Aredundant design

Bmodular design

Cless complex design

Drouted access design

But wouldn't redundant design provide more resilience during the detachment process?

I believe a less complex design would be better in this scenario, to avoid complications during divestment.

That makes sense, A less complex design would definitely make the process smoother and less prone to errors.

I believe a less complex design would also be a good choice. Simplifying the network would reduce the risks of disruption during divestment.

I was also thinking about the redundant design option, but I'm not sure that would be the best fit here. Redundancy is great for maintaining availability, but it might not be the most efficient approach when you're actively trying to detach parts of the network.

Absolutely, modular design is the clear winner in this scenario. It's the most flexible and scalable approach to handle these types of network changes.

Yeah, the modular design makes sense. It provides a clear separation between the parts of the network that are being divested and the rest of the organization's network. This way, the changes can be implemented with minimal disruption.

Haha, yeah! Modular design is the 'Lego' of network architecture. Very fitting analogy there.

Exactly, Michael! And the 'routed access design' option doesn't seem to be directly relevant to the task of detaching network segments. That's more about managing access controls, not the actual network architecture.

I agree, modular design is the way to go. It's like building with Lego blocks - you can remove one piece without the whole thing falling apart.

Hmm, this question seems to be testing our understanding of network design approaches. The key here is to minimize the impact and risks when parts of the network are being detached due to a divestment.

Modular design makes a lot of sense to me. It allows you to easily detach the affected parts of the network without impacting the rest of the infrastructure.

Definitely, you need to have a solid plan in place to minimize the disruption. I'm leaning towards option B) modular design as the best approach here.
