VMware Carbon Black Cloud Enterprise EDR Specialist — Question 14

A site administrator wishes to implement HCI mesh between two clusters on vSAN that are located in geographically separate sites and which are administered within a single datacenter.
Which two requirements should the vSAN administrator consider to accomplish this goal? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Either Layer 2 or Layer 3 communications can be used
• B. A leaf spine topology is required for core redundancy and reduced latency
• C. NIC teaming must be implemented for the vSAN network vmkernel port
• D. The configuration must meet the same latency and bandwidth requirement as local vSAN
• E. Encryption must be disabled prior to configuring HCI mesh

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

The correct answers are A and D. Option A is correct because HCI mesh can function over both Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks, providing flexibility in network design. Option D is also correct since maintaining similar latency and bandwidth requirements as local vSAN is critical for performance. Options B, C, and E are not necessary for HCI mesh implementation.
