Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Infrastructure v6.5 (NCP-MCI) — Question 39

An administrator needs to ensure logs, alerts and information is consistent across clusters that are located in different countries.
Which service needs to be configured?

Answer options

• A. NTP
• B. DNS
• C. SNMP
• D. SMTP

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, NTP (Network Time Protocol), as it synchronizes the clocks of different systems across networks, ensuring consistent timestamps on logs and alerts. The other options, such as DNS (Domain Name System), SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), serve different purposes and do not address the need for time synchronization across clusters.
