Dell EMC Specialist – Implementation Engineer, ECS — Question 17

How does the Network Validation Tool (NVT) validate Top of Rack (ToR) switch configurations?

Answer options

• A. NVT requires switch logon information and parses through the running-config of the switch
• B. Using the switch grab batch file, the output is imported into the NVT User Interface
• C. The running-config is imported into the NVT User Interface
• D. Top of Rack switches are always manually validated prior to implementation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the NVT relies on access to the switch's running-config to perform its validation. Option B is incorrect as it describes a different process that does not directly validate configurations. Option C lacks the necessary authentication step, and option D is incorrect as it suggests a manual process which the NVT aims to automate.
