Huawei’sSD-WAN solutionoffers a full suite of application optimization technologies, including:

Application identification: Uses DPI and traffic signatures to identify applications.

Intelligent traffic steering: Dynamically routes traffic based on application type and real-time link performance.

WAN optimization: Reduces latency, deduplicates traffic, and optimizes throughput for key apps.

QoS: Prioritizes critical applications and ensures bandwidth guarantees.

All listed options are part of the Huawei SD-WAN solutionfor optimizing user experience and application performance.

Correct answers: A, B, C, D

OSPFv3 (used for IPv6) usesIPv6 multicast addressesfor communication between routers:

FF02::5— All OSPF routers.

FF02::6— All OSPF Designated Routers (DRs) and Backup Designated Routers (BDRs).

FF08::x— These are used for organization-local scope, which isnotapplicable to standard OSPFv3 operation.

Therefore:

C. All OSPF routers use FF02::5— Correct

D. The DR uses FF02::6— Correct

A and B (FF08::x)— Incorrect. These addresses are not used by OSPFv3 in this context.

Correct answers: C and D

Comparison Between Paramiko (SSH) and Telnetlib (Telnet)

✅Paramiko (SSH) is more secure than Telnetlib (Telnet).

SSH (Secure Shell) encrypts login credentials and session datausing encryption protocols likeAES and RSA.

Telnet transmits data in plaintext, making it vulnerable to eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks.

✅Why is Telnet Insecure?

No encryption→ Credentials (username/password) are sent in plaintext.

Easily interceptedby attackers using packet sniffers (e.g., Wireshark).

Correct Method for Secure Remote Login in Python:

UseParamiko for SSH-based secure automation.

Example of logging in withParamiko (SSH)in Python:

import paramiko

ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()

ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())

ssh.connect("192.168.1.1", username="admin", password="password")

stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command("display version")

print(stdout.read().decode())

ssh.close()

The command port-isolate enable is used on Huawei switches to completely isolate traffic at both Layer 2 and Layer 3 between different interfaces within the same VLAN. This isolation prevents any communication between isolated ports—even if they belong to the same subnet or VLAN—making it a critical security feature in multi-tenant environments.

Usage Context:

Often used in shared service or hotel network scenarios.

Can be applied in access port configurations.

Does not require additional VLAN creation or private VLAN features.

Huawei Datacom Reference:

"To completely isolate Layer 2 and Layer 3 communication between interfaces in the same VLAN, run the port-isolate enable command under the interface view."
