2V0-41.24 Question 238
Select 3A network administrator is tasked with configuring Federation between two NSX-T Data Center environments to allow for centralized management and consistent policy application. Which of the following steps are required as part of the Federation configuration workflow?
- A
Deploy Global Manager appliances in both NSX-T environments.
- B
Establish site pairing between the Local Manager and Global Manager.
- C
Configure the Global Manager as the primary site and the Local Manager as the secondary site.
- D
Synchronize the inventory objects (e.g., segments, gateways) between the sites.
- E
Ensure both environments are running compatible NSX-T versions.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, E
Explanation
The process of configuring Federation in NSX-T involves deploying Global Manager appliances for centralized management, establishing site pairing between Local and Global Managers to enable communication, and ensuring that both environments are running compatible versions. These steps are essential for successful Federation configuration. However, roles like primary and secondary are not explicitly assigned between the Global and Local Managers, and synchronization of inventory objects occurs automatically, not as part of a manual workflow.
- A. Correct.
Deploying Global Manager appliances is a required step in the Federation workflow to enable centralized management across multiple NSX-T environments.
- B. Correct.
Site pairing is necessary to establish communication between the Local Manager and Global Manager, which is a critical step in the Federation process.
- C. Incorrect.
Configuring the Global Manager as the primary site and the Local Manager as the secondary site is not part of the Federation configuration workflow; instead, the Global Manager operates as an overarching management layer.
- D. Incorrect.
Synchronizing inventory objects is not a manual step in the Federation workflow; this is handled automatically once the Federation is properly configured.
- E. Correct.
Both NSX-T environments must be running compatible versions to ensure successful Federation setup and operation.
