A company is building a large data center. About 80% of its traffic will be north to South and the other 20% will be east to West. The company is also expecting a significant amount of data center growth over the next 5-10 years but wants to keep the cost of growth low.
Which data center design is best suited to meet these goals’?
A . a spine and leaf design with Layer 2/3 termination on the leaf nodes
B . a two-tier design with the Layer 2 termination on data center core
C . a three user design with a Layer 3 termination on the data center core
D . a spine and leaf design with Layer 2/3 termination on the some nodes
Answer: A
Explanation:
North-south traffic: This traffic enters or exits the data center and typically flows between the clients that are located outside the data center and servers in the data center.
East-west traffic: This traffic flows between the servers or devices in the data center and does not leave the data center.
