Cisco CCNA 200-301 Practice Question

Deploying a controller-based network provides easier scalability through centralized control and automation. Centralized management allows administrators to configure and manage the entire network from a single point, simplifying deployment and reducing the potential for configuration errors. This is particularly beneficial in a rapidly growing network where consistent policy enforcement and swift deployment are critical. The other options are not advantages of controller-based networking. Controller-based networks do not eliminate the need for security devices like firewalls; they do not necessarily reduce the number of network devices required; and they do not enhance performance by removing routing protocols.
