Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCID, legacy) — Question 66

Which action must occur before an N Port can exchange data with other N Ports?

Answer options

• A. The N Port must log in to its target F Port.
• B. The N Port must log in to its attached F Port.
• C. The F Port must log in to its target N Port.
• D. The F Port must log in to its attached F Port.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the F Port must establish a login with its attached N Port to facilitate communication. Options A and B incorrectly focus on the N Port's login actions rather than the F Port's requirements. Option C misrepresents the relationship by suggesting the F Port must log in to a target N Port, which is not necessary for initial data exchange.
