2V0-41.24 Question 309
Select 3An administrator is tasked with connecting a newly created segment to a Tier-1 gateway in an NSX-T environment. The Segment is intended to provide connectivity for a set of virtual machines. Which of the following steps must the administrator perform to successfully connect the segment to the Tier-1 gateway?
- A
Ensure the segment is created with a valid subnet and gateway IP.
- B
Attach the segment to the Tier-1 gateway via the NSX Manager interface.
- C
Configure a Distributed Firewall rule to allow traffic between the segment and the Tier-1 gateway.
- D
Enable Route Advertisement on the Tier-1 gateway for the connected segment.
- E
Configure an Edge Node Cluster for the Tier-1 gateway.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
To connect a segment to a Tier-1 gateway, the administrator must ensure the segment is properly configured with a valid subnet and gateway IP. They must then attach the segment to the Tier-1 gateway using the NSX Manager interface. Additionally, enabling Route Advertisement on the Tier-1 gateway ensures the newly connected segment's routes are properly propagated to other routing entities. Configuring firewall rules or Edge Node Clusters is not part of the direct process for establishing this connection.
- A. Correct.
Ensuring the segment has a valid subnet and gateway IP is necessary for proper communication and routing to and from the Tier-1 gateway. Without this, the segment will not function correctly.
- B. Correct.
Attaching the segment to the Tier-1 gateway is the core step required to establish connectivity between the segment and the gateway.
- C. Incorrect.
A Distributed Firewall rule is not required to connect a segment to the Tier-1 gateway directly. Firewall rules primarily govern traffic flow but are not part of the connection process itself.
- D. Correct.
Enabling Route Advertisement on the Tier-1 gateway is necessary to ensure the routes for the connected segment are advertised to the Tier-0 gateway or other routing entities.
- E. Incorrect.
Configuring an Edge Node Cluster is relevant for Tier-0 gateways or for enabling North/South traffic, but it is not specifically required for connecting a segment to a Tier-1 gateway.
