Answer options
- A. A Tier-1 router that handles routing and firewalling for the VMware vCenter Server and other management appliances running in the software-defined data center (SDDC)
- B. A Tier-1 router that handles workload traffic that is connected to routed compute network segments
- C. A Tier-0 router that handles routing and firewalling for the VMware vCenter Server and other management appliances running in the software-defined data center (SDDC)
- D. A Tier-0 router that handles workload traffic that is connected to routed compute network segments
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B because the Compute Gateway (CGW) is specifically designed as a Tier-1 router that processes workload traffic for routed compute network segments. Options A and C incorrectly describe the CGW's role in relation to management appliances, while D misclassifies the CGW's function by labeling it as a Tier-0 router.
