VMware Cloud on AWS Specialist — Question 32

An administrator deploys a VMware Cloud on AWS environment and configures an IPsec virtual private network (VPN) tunnel to their data center. Hybrid Linked
Mode connectivity, however, does NOT appear to be working. Before contacting VMware Support, what could the administrator do to narrow down the possible issue?

Answer options

• A. Fill in the relevant IP information for the on-premises infrastructure and run the desired troubleshooting connectivity test.
• B. Download and review the Tier-0 (TO) gateway firewall logs.
• C. Configure a packet capture device in the on-premises data center to capture packets from the VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC) to determine which packets are being dropped.
• D. Configure a packet capture appliance on a local segment within VMware Cloud on AWS to capture and analyze traffic across a specific NSX-T gateway interface.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because entering the proper IP details and running a connectivity test directly addresses the issue in a straightforward manner. Options B, C, and D involve more complex troubleshooting steps that may not directly lead to identifying the immediate problem with Hybrid Linked Mode connectivity.
