A. B. C. D.

B.

In a Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) deployment, service graphs are used to define the path that traffic takes through a network service. Layer 4-7 devices, such as firewalls and load balancers, are often used in service graphs to provide network services to the traffic.

To simplify the deployment of service graphs, ACI allows administrators to create service graph templates. These templates define the various components of the service graph, including the endpoints, the L4-L7 devices, and the policies that are applied to the traffic.

When creating a service graph template, administrators can also define a preset of policies that should be deployed with the service graph. This allows the policies to be easily applied to any service graph that uses the template.

The option that allows administrators to define this preset of policies is the function profile. Function profiles are used to define the L4-L7 devices and the policies that are applied to traffic when it passes through those devices.

Policy groups, on the other hand, are used to group policies together for easier management. Service groups are used to define a set of endpoints that can be used in a service graph.

Therefore, the correct option in this case is B. function profile.
