Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Infrastructure v6.5 (NCP-MCI) — Question 65

On a Nutanix cluster, what does Network Segmentation refer to?

Answer options

• A. Isolating management traffic from storage replication traffic.
• B. Physically separating management traffic from guest VM traffic.
• C. Isolating intra-cluster traffic from guest VM traffic.
• D. A distributed firewall for securing VM to VM traffic.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, describes Network Segmentation as the practice of keeping management traffic separate from storage replication traffic, which is essential for performance and security. Options B and C incorrectly imply physical separation or focus on intra-cluster traffic, which do not align with the primary definition of Network Segmentation in this context. Option D addresses a different aspect of security rather than specifically about traffic isolation.
