Select 3You are tasked with configuring an Edge Cluster in a VMware NSX-T environment to support North-South traffic. Which steps must you complete to properly configure the Edge Cluster?
- A
Add Edge Nodes to the Edge Cluster.
- B
Assign a Tier-0 Gateway to the Edge Cluster.
- C
Enable Edge Cluster High Availability (HA) mode.
- D
Bind the Edge Cluster to a Transport Zone.
- E
Configure BGP on the Edge Cluster.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
Configuring an Edge Cluster in NSX-T involves adding Edge Nodes to the cluster, binding the cluster to a Transport Zone, and assigning a Tier-0 Gateway to the cluster to handle North-South traffic. While enabling HA and configuring routing protocols like BGP are related tasks, they are not part of the core steps required to configure the Edge Cluster itself.
- A. Correct.
Adding Edge Nodes to the Edge Cluster is essential because Edge Nodes are the resources that provide routing and North-South traffic capabilities in NSX-T.
- B. Correct.
Assigning a Tier-0 Gateway to the Edge Cluster is required for North-South traffic to flow through the Edge Cluster and interact with external networks.
- C. Incorrect.
Enabling Edge Cluster High Availability (HA) mode is not a required step to configure an Edge Cluster, though it is a recommended practice for failover scenarios.
- D. Correct.
Binding the Edge Cluster to a Transport Zone is mandatory to ensure communication between the Edge Cluster and the NSX-T data plane.
- E. Incorrect.
Configuring BGP on the Edge Cluster is not directly part of configuring the Edge Cluster itself, but rather a separate step in setting up dynamic routing.
