VMware NSX-T Data Center Advanced (VCAP-NV Design) — Question 49

An architect is helping an organization with the Logical Design of a Layer 2 bridging solution.
This information was gathered during the Assessment Phase:
✑ Workloads are running on ESXi hosts.
✑ Workloads are running on KVM hosts.
✑ Workloads on hypervisors should use bridging services.
✑ VLAN 50 is used for Tier-0 uplink connectivity.
Which selection should the architect include in their design? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. Create an NSX Edge Bridge Cluster and configure the bridging profile with VLAN 60.
• B. Create an NSX Edge Bridge Cluster and configure the bridging profile with VLAN 50.
• C. Create an ESXi Bridge Cluster and configure the bridging profile with VLAN 50.
• D. Create an ESXi Bridge Cluster and configure the bridging profile with VLAN 60.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the design requires the bridging profile to use VLAN 50, which is already designated for Tier-0 uplink connectivity. Option A and D incorrectly use VLAN 60, which does not align with the specified requirements, while option C suggests an ESXi Bridge Cluster instead of the required NSX Edge Bridge Cluster.
