Which statement compares traditional networks and controller-based networks?

A. Only controller-based networks decouple the control plane and the data plane.
B. Traditional and controller-based networks abstract policies from device configurations.
C. Only traditional networks natively support centralized management.
D. Only traditional networks offer a centralized control plane.

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Explanation:
Most traditional devices use a distributed architecture, in which each control plane is resided in a networking device. Therefore, they need to communicate with each other via messages to work correctly.
In contrast to distributed architecture, centralized (or controller-based) architectures centralizes the control of networking devices into one device, called SDN controller.
