VMware NSX-T Data Center for Operators — Question 72

If a company connects their data center to a VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC) instance through a virtual private network (VPN) and advertises a 0.0.0.0/0 route, what is the expected behavior of the SDDC compute network traffic?

Answer options

• A. All compute and management traffic will egress to the data center.
• B. All compute network traffic destined for the data center will egress through the VPN but all Internet traffic will egress through the cloud provider Internet gateway.
• C. All compute network traffic will egress through the cloud provider Internet gateway.
• D. All compute network traffic will egress to the data center.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because advertising a 0.0.0.0/0 route signifies that all traffic is directed to the data center via the VPN. Options A and D are similar, but option D specifically addresses compute network traffic, while A refers to both compute and management traffic. Option B incorrectly states that Internet traffic goes through the Internet gateway, which is not the case here, and option C suggests that all traffic would exit through the Internet gateway, which contradicts the VPN setup.
