I'm sure the correct answer is C. The edge nodes are the gatekeepers, keeping the fabric safe from the wild, wild world outside. *tips imaginary cowboy hat*

Wait, is this a trick question? I thought the edge nodes were responsible for keeping the fabric clean and tidy. You know, like the 'edge' of the network. *chuckles*

I'm gonna go with option D. The edge nodes are the ones tasked with resolving lookup requests to locate the destination endpoint IDs within the fabric. It makes the most sense to me.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards option A. The edge nodes are responsible for identifying and authenticating the endpoints, which is a crucial function in an SD-Access network.

I'm not sure about that. Option B seems more accurate to me. The edge nodes are responsible for tracking the location and addressing information of the endpoints within the fabric.

I think option C is the correct answer. The edge nodes act as the gateway between the fabric domain and the external network, providing connectivity and security between the two.
