VMware NSX 4.x Professional (2023) — Question 58

When a stateful service is enabled for the first time on a Tier-0 Gateway, what happens on the NSX Edge node?

Answer options

• A. SR and DR is instantiated but requires manual connection.
• B. SR is instantiated and automatically connected with DR.
• C. DR is instantiated and automatically connected with SR.
• D. SR and DR doesn't need to be connected to provide any stateful services.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because when a stateful service is first enabled, the Service Router (SR) is instantiated and it automatically establishes a connection with the Data Router (DR). Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they misrepresent how SR and DR interact during the initial activation of stateful services.
