2V0-41.24 Question 180
Select 3An organization is deploying NSX to manage its virtual network environment and needs to configure DHCP services for a newly created logical segment. The administrator decides to use the built-in DHCP feature in NSX. Which steps must the administrator take to ensure the DHCP service is properly configured for this segment?
- A
Enable the DHCP service on the Tier-1 Gateway associated with the logical segment.
- B
Create and configure a DHCP Profile under Networking > DHCP in the NSX Manager UI.
- C
Assign the DHCP Profile to the logical segment where IP addresses need to be assigned.
- D
Configure an external DHCP server and link it to the logical segment.
- E
Set a static IP pool for the logical segment in the NSX Manager UI.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, C
Explanation
To configure DHCP services in NSX, the administrator needs to enable the DHCP service on the Tier-1 Gateway, create a DHCP Profile within NSX Manager, and assign the profile to the intended logical segment. This ensures that the built-in NSX DHCP functionality is properly set up to dynamically assign IP addresses to devices on the segment. Using an external DHCP server or static IP pools is not required in this scenario.
- A. Correct.
Correct. The DHCP service must be enabled on the Tier-1 Gateway for the logical segment to utilize the NSX DHCP functionality.
- B. Correct.
Correct. A DHCP Profile must be created in NSX Manager to define the configuration details for the DHCP service.
- C. Correct.
Correct. The DHCP Profile must be explicitly assigned to the logical segment for the DHCP service to function.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. An external DHCP server is not required when using the built-in DHCP feature in NSX.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Static IP pools are not used for dynamic IP assignment via DHCP; they serve a different purpose.
