Which two solution must be used to meet these requirements?

An engineer finishes the initial set up of a VXLAN EVPN network. The engineer is asked to plan for connectivity that supports redundancy and extends multiple virtual routing and forwarding domains. The requirement is to use the same default gateway addressing across all leaf switches that belong to the VXLAN network.

Which two solution must be used to meet these requirements? (Choose two)
A . spanning tree protocol
B. VRF-lite
C. Distributed anycast gateway
D. DC interconnect
E. Inter-site network

Answer: C,E

Explanation:

In a VXLAN EVPN fabric, the Distributed Anycast Gateway (C) allows for the same gateway IP to be configured on all leaf nodes providing the layer 3 boundary for a given VRF. This allows for seamless VM mobility within the fabric as well as optimal routing since the gateway is always local to the VM, regardless of where in the fabric the VM resides.

Inter-site network (E) would be used to extend the VXLAN EVPN fabric between sites or data centers, providing redundancy and ensuring connectivity.

Spanning Tree Protocol (A) is not typically used in VXLAN EVPN fabrics as they are usually built using a spine-leaf architecture, which is loop-free. VRF-lite (B) is typically used for simpler multi-tenancy requirements and may not be suitable for complex VXLAN EVPN environments. DC interconnect (D) is a broader term and does not refer to a specific technology or solution.
