VMware NSX-T Data Center (VCP-NV 2020) — Question 49

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-1 Gateway
• B. Edge Services Gateway
• C. Tier-0 Gateway
• D. Layer 2 Gateway

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Tier-0 Gateway, as it is responsible for north-south routing in NSX-T environments. The Tier-1 Gateway (A) is used for east-west traffic and does not provide direct north-south connectivity. The Edge Services Gateway (B) is primarily for connecting to external networks but does not serve as the main routing component. The Layer 2 Gateway (D) is used for bridging but does not facilitate routing functions.
