What is the disadvantage of setting up a site-to-site VPN in a clustered-units environment?

Answer options

• A. VPN connections can be re-established only if the failed master unit recovers.
• B. Smart License is required to maintain VPN connections simultaneously across all cluster units.
• C. VPN connections must be re-established when a new master unit is elected.
• D. Only established VPN connections are maintained when a new master unit is elected.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because when a new master unit is elected in a clustered environment, any existing VPN connections must be re-established. Options A, B, and D do not accurately describe the implications of a new master unit election on VPN connections.
