When an Arista switch boots with no startup-config and ZTP enabled, before ZTP receives an IP address, in what state are the front-panel interfaces?
When an Arista switch boots with no startup-config and ZTP enabled, before ZTP receives an IP address, in what state are the front-panel interfaces?
When an Arista switch boots with no startup-config and ZTP enabled, it configures all Ethernet and Management interfaces with the no switchport command. This means that all interfaces are routed ports (no switchport) before ZTP receives an IP address.
When an Arista switch boots for the first time, ZTP is enabled. The switch sees that there is no startup-config, so it configures all interfaces with the no switchport command, then sends out DHCP queries on any Ethernet and Management interfaces.
The correct answer should be C
Arista Warrior 2 confirms this (gksong is correct). "When a switch boots in ZTP mode, it configures all the Ethernet and Management interfaces with the no switchport command.." Chapter 25 Section: Booting with ZTP.. page 305..
