VMware Cloud Foundation 5.x Administrator (2025) — Question 19

What are three prerequisites for deploying an NSX Edge cluster in a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) solution? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Set up vSAN storage policies for the Edge VMs.
• B. Verify that the NSX host overlay VLAN and NSX Edge overlay VLAN are routed to each other.
• C. Create DNS entries for the NSX Edge nodes.
• D. Use separate VLAN IDs and subnets for the NSX host overlay and NSX Edge overlay networks.
• E. Configure BGP as a dynamic routing protocol on the physical switches.
• F. Install Aria Operations and enable Edge Cluster monitoring.

Correct answer: B, C, D

Explanation

The correct prerequisites are B, C, and D because they ensure proper communication and functionality between the NSX Edge cluster and its networks. Option A is incorrect as storage policies are not a requirement for Edge deployment. Option E, while important for routing, is not a direct prerequisite, and option F is related to monitoring, not deployment prerequisites.
