2V0-21.23 Question 287
Single answerAn organization is planning to configure VMware vSphere with Tanzu in their environment to enable Kubernetes workloads. During the setup, the administrator is required to configure the Supervisor Cluster and select the appropriate network configuration for it. The environment has a distributed switch in place and multiple VLANs configured. Which network configuration option should the administrator choose to ensure the Supervisor Cluster can communicate effectively with Kubernetes workloads and external networks?
- A
vSphere Networking with NSX-T
- B
vSphere Networking with Distributed Switch
- C
vSphere Networking with Standard Switch
- D
vSphere Networking with Host-Only Network
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
In this scenario, the organization already has a distributed switch in place along with multiple VLANs. The most appropriate choice is 'vSphere Networking with Distributed Switch,' as it allows the Supervisor Cluster to integrate with the existing network configuration. NSX-T is unnecessary in this case, making the distributed switch the optimal choice for the network configuration.
- A. Incorrect.
vSphere Networking with NSX-T is a valid option, but it requires NSX-T to be deployed. Since the question specifies the organization already has a distributed switch in place, NSX-T is not necessary in this scenario.
- B. Correct.
vSphere Networking with Distributed Switch is the correct option as it allows the Supervisor Cluster to leverage the existing distributed switch and VLANs for communication with Kubernetes workloads and external networks.
- C. Incorrect.
vSphere Networking with Standard Switch is not a valid option for configuring the Supervisor Cluster. It does not support the required networking capabilities for vSphere with Tanzu, especially in environments using distributed switches.
- D. Incorrect.
vSphere Networking with Host-Only Network is not a valid option for this scenario as it does not allow communication with external networks or Kubernetes workloads.
