NetApp Certified Data Administrator (NCDA) – ONTAP SAN — Question 5

After you install a new cluster with ONTAP 9.5 software, you want to create a new broadcast domain. During the creation of the broadcast domain, you receive an error that there are no free ports available.
What is the reason for this error message?

Answer options

• A. By Default, all ports are bound to the "Default" broadcast domain. To create a new port, remove the needed ports from the "Default" broadcast domain and create a new IPspace.
• B. By Default, all ports are bound to the "Default" broadcast domain. To create a new port, remove the needed ports from the "Default" broadcast domain.
• C. Before you configure a new broadcast domain, you should create a new IPspace.
• D. You can create a new broadcast domain only within the CLI.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because creating a new broadcast domain requires an IPspace to be set up first. Options A and B are incorrect as they suggest removing ports from the 'Default' broadcast domain, which does not address the need for an IPspace. Option D is incorrect since a new broadcast domain can be created using the GUI as well.
