Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 98

What is an advantage of NFSv4 over Fibre Channel Protocol?

Answer options

• A. uses IP transport
• B. congestion management
• C. improved security
• D. lossless throughput

Correct answer: C

Explanation

NFSv4 offers improved security features, such as stronger authentication and encryption mechanisms, which are not inherently available in Fibre Channel Protocol. While options A and B describe transport and management aspects, they do not relate specifically to the security enhancements that NFSv4 provides. Option D refers to throughput characteristics that Fibre Channel may offer, but it does not address the security improvements of NFSv4.
