NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer – ONTAP v4 — Question 28

When using tagged VLANs on Cisco Nexus switches for NVMe over TCP, which two changes must be made to enable jumbo frames? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Modify the appropriate broadcast domain in NetApp ONTAP software to use an MTU of 9000.
• B. Modify the Cisco Nexus switches to use an MTU of 9216.
• C. Modify the appropriate broadcast domain in NetApp ONTAP software to use an MTU of 9216.
• D. Modify the Cisco Nexus switches to use an MTU of 9000.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because for jumbo frames to work properly, both the Cisco Nexus switches and the NetApp ONTAP software must be configured to support the same MTU size. Setting the MTU to 9216 on both devices allows for the larger frames, while options A and D do not provide the required compatibility for jumbo frames.
