2V0-41.24 Question 113
Select 3An organization is deploying NSX-T and needs to deploy NSX Edge nodes to support both north-south and east-west traffic. They want to ensure high availability and scalability for their workloads. Which deployment methods would meet these requirements?
- A
Deploy NSX Edge nodes as VMs on ESXi hosts.
- B
Deploy NSX Edge nodes as bare-metal appliances.
- C
Deploy NSX Edge nodes as standalone VMs on non-NSX-managed hypervisors.
- D
Deploy NSX Edge nodes on physical routers with NSX-T integration.
- E
Deploy NSX Edge nodes as part of an NSX Edge cluster.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, E
Explanation
NSX Edge nodes can be deployed as VMs or bare-metal appliances, both of which are supported methods for handling north-south and east-west traffic. Additionally, to meet high availability and scalability requirements, NSX Edge nodes should be deployed as part of an NSX Edge cluster. Unsupported methods, such as deploying on non-NSX-managed hypervisors or physical routers, do not meet NSX-T deployment standards.
- A. Correct.
Deploying NSX Edge nodes as VMs on ESXi hosts is a supported deployment method, allowing flexibility and integration with existing virtualized environments.
- B. Correct.
Deploying NSX Edge nodes as bare-metal appliances is a valid option, especially for high-performance requirements and hardware-level isolation.
- C. Incorrect.
Deploying NSX Edge nodes as standalone VMs on non-NSX-managed hypervisors is not supported and would not meet the requirements for NSX-T deployment.
- D. Incorrect.
NSX Edge nodes cannot be deployed directly on physical routers. NSX-T does support integration with physical routers, but Edge nodes themselves must be deployed as VMs or bare-metal appliances.
- E. Correct.
Deploying NSX Edge nodes as part of an NSX Edge cluster ensures high availability and scalability, meeting the organization's requirements for redundancy and performance.
