NetApp Certified Hybrid Cloud Administrator (NCHCA) — Question 8

You want to direct-connect NetApp storage to a UCS Mini over IP.
In this scenario, which storage protocol is supported?

Answer options

• A. CIFS
• B. FC
• C. S3
• D. iSCSI

Correct answer: D

Explanation

iSCSI is the correct answer because it is specifically designed for transporting SCSI commands over IP networks, making it suitable for direct connections in this scenario. CIFS and S3 are not typically used for direct storage connections in this context, and FC (Fibre Channel) is a different protocol that does not operate over IP.
