4A0-104 practice question 11 of 35

A mesh SDP is used to create an Fpipe service.

Full set: 288 questions
Answer options
A: TRUE
B: FALSE Correct answer
Correct Answer:
B. FALSE
Explanation

The statement is false. An Fpipe service is a Layer 2 point-to-point Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) used for transporting Frame Relay circuits over an MPLS backbone. By definition, it connects only two endpoints. A mesh SDP is a configuration object used for point-to-multipoint services, such as VPLS, to automatically create a full mesh of pseudowires between all sites in the service. A point-to-point Fpipe service uses a spoke SDP, not a mesh SDP.

Why Incorrect

This is a True/False question. The statement is factually incorrect, making "False" (represented by option B) the only correct choice.
