  • AvSmartcorrect
  • BvBond
  • CvManage

A vSmart

It's A, vSmart. vSmart handles the control plane and OMP peering, while vBond only orchestrates initial bring-up before dropping off. Don't confuse control with vManage's management plane. Follow for tomorrow's rep.

Exam tip

Read what the question is actually asking before looking at the options. The wrong answers here are ones candidates genuinely pick — each is true of something adjacent, just not of what was asked.
