2V0-41.24 Question 241
Select 2An organization plans to set up NSX Federation across multiple sites to enable centralized policy management and enforcement. Which prerequisites must be met before Federation can be successfully deployed?
- A
All participating sites must have the same NSX-T version installed.
- B
A Global Manager must be deployed and registered with all Local Managers.
- C
Each participating site must have a unique VLAN ID space configured.
- D
The NSX Managers at all sites must have Layer 2 adjacency for communication.
- E
The Local Managers must have their control planes linked to the Global Manager.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
To successfully deploy NSX Federation, it is critical to ensure all sites are running the same NSX-T version and that a Global Manager is deployed and registered with all Local Managers. These prerequisites enable the centralized management and operational consistency Federation is designed to provide. Other factors, such as VLAN ID spaces and Layer 2 adjacency, while important in certain scenarios, are not core requirements specific to Federation setup.
- A. Correct.
Correct - NSX Federation requires all sites to operate on the same NSX-T version to ensure compatibility and proper functioning of the Federation features.
- B. Correct.
Correct - A Global Manager is a key component in NSX Federation, as it provides centralized policy management. It must be deployed and registered with all Local Managers for proper Federation setup.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect - While unique VLAN ID spaces may be necessary for certain configurations, this is not a strict prerequisite for NSX Federation deployment.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect - NSX Federation does not require Layer 2 adjacency between NSX Managers. Communication can occur over Layer 3.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect - Linking the control planes of Local Managers to the Global Manager is not required. The Global Manager communicates with Local Managers at the management plane level.
