Exam 350-401 topic 1 question 807 discussion

D, You can design a campus network in a logical manner, using a modular approach. In this approach, each layer of the hierarchical network model can be broken into basic functional units. These units, or modules, then can be sized appropriately and connected, while allowing for future scalability and expansion. https://www.ccexpert.us/root-bridge/modular-network-design.html

B. The modular design itself is self-contained "modules". It helps with scalability, but that is not what it is. You could potentially have modularity without scalability.

B is the correct one. D describe another characteristic which is scalability

B is correct

D is the answer

Both B and D should be correct. but B is one of the main Reasons, I will go with B

i will go with D

I think both option B and D are related to Modularity but I would go for B

The question is asking network design the most valuable answer is D. If the question was asking about languages design for sure I will pick B, because modularity in OOP and declarative languages is repeatable scripts where we can reuse those scrips.

Network Scalability -> ability to scale and accommodate future needs of the network. - > D Answer -> B

Modular is different from scalable.

Modularity in network design refers to option B, the ability to create self-contained, repeatable sections of the network. This means breaking down the network into distinct modules or components that can be easily managed, maintained, and scaled independently. It allows for greater flexibility, easier troubleshooting, and scalability as the network grows or evolves over time.

D is good but B is better

Modularity in network design refers to the ability to create self-contained, repeatable sections of the network. This allows for easier management, troubleshooting, and scalability of the network.

Answer B The advantage of the modular approach is largely due to the isolation that it can provide. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Campus/campover.html#wp708877

B. Ability to create self-contained, repeatable sections of the network The ability to create self-contained, repeatable sections or modules within the network. This approach allows for easier management, troubleshooting, and scalability. Each module can operate independently, and changes or updates in one module should not impact others. Modularity is a key principle in designing networks that are flexible, scalable, and easier to maintain.

for me, is D
