 Synchronous API calls are blocking operations which means the code will not execute any further until a response is received from the server. This can add perceived latency to an application because it has to wait for the data to be received before continuing (Option C). Furthermore, synchronous calls block until a response is returned from the server (Option D), which means that during this time, no other operations can be performed. This is in contrast to asynchronous calls, which allow other processes to run while waiting for the API call to return. References := ( Automating Cisco Enterprise Solutions Official Cert Guide )

 The ‘name’ parameter is essential as it defines the unique identifier for the network within the organization. The ‘type’ parameter determines the kind of network to be created, such as wireless or switch. These two parameters are crucial for the initial setup of a network using the Cisco Meraki API. References := (Automating Cisco Enterprise Solutions Official Cert Guide)

The NETCONF statement type represented by “±-rw address* [ip]” is a ‘list’. In YANG, which is the data modeling language used by NETCONF, a ‘list’ statement defines a sequence of list entries. Each entry is like a row in a table. The “+” indicates that this is a configuration data node, “rw” means read-write, and the asterisk (*) signifies that multiple address entries are allowed (hence it’s a list), with “ip” being the key for each unique entry in the list. References: Automating Cisco Enterprise Solutions Official Cert Guide

 Python virtual environments should be used in cases where there are conflicting Python package versions across multiple projects (Option B) to ensure each project can have its own set of dependencies. Additionally, they are beneficial when starting a new project that requires a clean development environment (Option E), as it allows for a controlled setup without interference from other projects’ dependencies. References := ( Automating Cisco Enterprise Solutions Official Cert Guide )

Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) is a method used to automate the process of configuring network devices without manual intervention. When a device is first powered on, it uses DHCP to obtain an IP address and other network settings, including the location of a TFTP server from which it can download its initial configuration. This allows devices to be deployed at scale with minimal effort, as they can automatically configure themselves as soon as they are connected to the network. References := (Automating Cisco Enterprise Solutions Official Cert Guide)

 The Cisco SD-WAN vManage Troubleshooting Dashboard APIs capture various details during troubleshooting, including the connections summary. This summary provides an overview of all control connections from the vManage NMS to the vSmart controllers, WAN Edge routers, and vBond orchestrators in the overlay network. It displays the status of these connections, which is crucial during a network outage to identify and troubleshoot the cause of the issue.
