Why is using the command-line interface (CLI) to configure a large number of devices considered difficult to scale? (Choose two.)
- The CLI is prone to human error and misconfi guration.
- The CLI is quick and effi cient for confi guring many devices simultaneously.
- Telnet access to the CLI is best practice.
- The command line is used on a device-by-device basis.
- Using APIs is considered a legacy method of confi guration.
Explanation: The CLI is difficult to scale when configuring multiple devices at the same time. This is because the CLI is designed for configuration of a single device on a device-by-device basis. Although scripting can help with some of the burden, it is not the best method for scaling. Consistency in configuration from device to device also becomes more difficult to manage as a network grows.
