VMware NSX-T Data Center (VCP-NV 2019) — Question 26

An NSX administrator is planning to deploy a multi-tier routing topology in their NSX-T Data Center environment to provide north-south connectivity for the VMs.
Which routing component must be deployed?

Answer options

• A. Tier-0 Gateway
• B. Edge Node
• C. Tier-1 Gateway
• D. Edge Cluster

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the Tier-1 Gateway is responsible for providing north-south connectivity within a multi-tier routing architecture. The Tier-0 Gateway is primarily used for external routing and does not directly connect to VMs. Edge Nodes and Edge Clusters support the infrastructure but do not serve as the routing component itself.
