2V0-41.24 Question 117
Select 3Your organization has deployed an NSX-T Data Center environment where a Tier-0 Gateway is responsible for connecting to the physical network. The Tier-1 Gateway is used for internal application workloads. During an audit, you are tasked to validate the configuration to ensure that the traffic from Tier-1 Gateway workloads can reach the external network. Which of the following are necessary configurations for this setup to function correctly?
- A
The Tier-0 Gateway must be configured with an external uplink interface.
- B
The Tier-1 Gateway must be directly connected to the physical network.
- C
Route advertisement must be enabled on the Tier-1 Gateway to propagate routes to the Tier-0 Gateway.
- D
A Service Router (SR) must be deployed on the Tier-0 Gateway to handle north-south traffic.
- E
The Tier-1 Gateway must have an active Service Router for traffic forwarding.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
In an NSX-T Data Center environment, Tier-0 Gateways are responsible for connecting to the physical network and handling north-south traffic, which requires an external uplink interface and a Service Router. Tier-1 Gateways are used for internal workloads and rely on the Tier-0 Gateway for external connectivity. To ensure proper communication, route advertisement must be enabled on the Tier-1 Gateway to propagate its routes to the Tier-0 Gateway.
- A. Correct.
Correct: The Tier-0 Gateway requires an external uplink interface to connect to the physical network and allow north-south traffic to flow.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: The Tier-1 Gateway does not need to be directly connected to the physical network. Tier-1 Gateways rely on the Tier-0 Gateway for external connectivity.
- C. Correct.
Correct: Route advertisement must be enabled on the Tier-1 Gateway to propagate its routes to the Tier-0 Gateway, enabling external communication.
- D. Correct.
Correct: A Service Router (SR) is required on the Tier-0 Gateway to handle north-south traffic and provide connectivity to the physical network.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Tier-1 Gateways do not require a Service Router since they rely on the Tier-0 Gateway for north-south traffic processing.
