Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
To successfully deploy NSX Federation, certain prerequisites must be met, including the deployment of the Global Manager, ensuring all sites are running the same NSX-T version, and establishing Layer 3 connectivity between the Global Manager and Local Managers. These prerequisites ensure the components within the Federation can communicate and operate cohesively. Other options, such as configuring Tier-1 Gateways or unique UUIDs, are not required for Federation setup.
- A. Correct.
Correct: The Global Manager is a critical component in the NSX Federation architecture and must be deployed in one of the participating sites.
- B. Correct.
Correct: All participating sites in the Federation must run the same NSX-T version to ensure compatibility and functionality.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Tier-1 Gateways are not a prerequisite for NSX Federation; the architecture can operate with Tier-0 Gateways or other configurations.
- D. Correct.
Correct: Global Manager and Local Managers must have Layer 3 connectivity to facilitate communication and synchronization between components.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: UUIDs for network segments are automatically generated and do not require manual configuration for Federation.
- F. Incorrect.
Incorrect: An external load balancer is not required for Global Manager configuration in the context of NSX Federation.
