NETCONF: SSH-based; built to support candidate configuration. RESTCONF: HTTPS-based; lacks support for two-phase commit transactions.

NETCONF and RESTCONF both use YANG data models, but they use different transport and transaction behaviors. NETCONF is traditionally SSH-based and was designed as a network configuration protocol with datastore concepts such as running, startup, and candidate configuration where supported. The candidate datastore enables staged configuration changes and a commit workflow, which is useful for transactional network changes. RESTCONF exposes YANG-modeled resources through an HTTP-based REST interface, typically protected with HTTPS. It is simpler for web-style application integration because it uses familiar HTTP methods, URIs, and payload encodings such as XML or JSON. However, RESTCONF does not provide the same full two-phase commit transaction model associated with NETCONF candidate configuration workflows. Therefore, the correct mapping is that NETCONF is SSH-based and built to support candidate configuration, while RESTCONF is HTTPS-based and lacks support for two-phase commit transactions. In Cisco programmability design, NETCONF is often selected for robust configuration transactions, whereas RESTCONF is often selected for simpler API-driven integration.

When Cisco SD-WAN edge router redundancy is designed, VRRP is the supported first-hop redundancy protocol in the SD-WAN edge context. VRRP provides a virtual default gateway for LAN-side devices, allowing one WAN Edge router to act as the active gateway while another can take over if the active router or tracked condition fails. Cisco SD-WAN designs use VRRP with tracking and policy alignment so branch LAN traffic can fail over to the appropriate edge router while the SD-WAN overlay handles transport and tunnel selection. HSRP and GLBP are traditional campus first-hop redundancy protocols, but they are not the supported FHRP answer for vEdge router redundancy in this design context. OMP is the SD-WAN control-plane routing protocol used between WAN Edge routers and vSmart controllers; it is not a first-hop redundancy protocol for LAN hosts. Therefore, the correct FHRP for vEdge router redundancy is VRRP. The design should also ensure that VRRP priorities, tracking, and SD-WAN routing preferences align so traffic exits the intended edge during normal and failure conditions.

The IPv4 network 172.16.10.0/24 maps to 2001:db8:abcd::ac10:a00/120 when the IPv4 address is placed into the lowest significant bits of the IPv6 address. The calculation converts each IPv4 octet into hexadecimal: 172 is AC, 16 is 10, 10 is 0A, and 0 is 00. Combining those bytes gives AC10:0A00, displayed in IPv6 notation as ac10:a00. Because a /24 IPv4 network has 8 host bits, the mapped IPv6 network leaves the same 8 host bits, resulting in a /120 IPv6 prefix. Option B incorrectly places decimal IPv4 octets into separate IPv6 hextets and uses /96, which represents a much larger mapping block than the /24 network. Option C does not represent 172.16.10.0 in hexadecimal. Option D changes the higher-order IPv6 prefix and does not match the supplied address plan. The correct address therefore preserves the planned IPv6 prefix and embeds the IPv4 network in the low-order bits.
