Which IP address pool must be reachable over the backbone from the physical pod to the remote leaf?
Answer: B
Cisco ACI uses the physical pod’s external TEP pool to allocate routable addresses for communication with remote locations. Cisco specifies that this pool must be a subnet routable across the network connecting the physical pod and remote leaf location.

Question 2 · ACI Packet Forwarding Open
Which MP-BGP address-family type exchanges MAC and IP endpoint information between spines in two separate pods?
Answer: B
The L2VPN EVPN address family carries EVPN MAC/IP Advertisement routes, which convey endpoint MAC and IP reachability. In an ACI Multi-Pod fabric, the spine-to-spine MP-BGP EVPN peering between pods uses the L2VPN EVPN address family.

Question 3 · ACI Management Open
Refer to the exhibit. The engineering team restored the Cisco ACI fabric from an earlier daily snapshot imported from a remote location. During the restoration, the team found that all password information had been lost. Which set of steps must be used to prevent password loss during future system restores?
Answer: D
Cisco ACI removes secure properties such as passwords from exported configuration files unless global AES encryption is enabled. Enabling global AES encryption ensures those secure properties are included in backups. When importing a file without secure properties, merge mode preserves the fabric’s existing secure properties; replace mode can remove them.
