350-701 Cisco Exam Lab Questions

FlexVPN and DMVPN are both Cisco technologies that use point-to-point GRE tunnels to create dynamic VPN networks. However, they differ in some aspects, such as:

• FlexVPN is a newer solution that requires newer hardware and IOS versions, while DMVPN is more widely supported on older devices1.
• FlexVPN is based on IKEv2, which is a more robust and efficient protocol than IKEv1, which is used by DMVPN (although DMVPN can also use IKEv2)2.
• FlexVPN uses static or virtual access interfaces for GRE tunnels, while DMVPN uses a single multipoint GRE interface. This allows more flexibility and visibility for FlexVPN tunnels2.
• FlexVPN does not require NHRP registration for spokes to communicate with the hub, while DMVPN does. This simplifies the configuration and reduces the overhead of NHRP3.
• FlexVPN has only one standard mode of operation, while DMVPN has three phases with different characteristics and configurations2.
