2V0-41.24 Question 312
Single answerYou are tasked with validating a Tier-1 Gateway configuration using the network topology in an NSX environment. Upon reviewing the topology, you notice that a workload connected to a logical switch associated with the Tier-1 Gateway cannot communicate with the external network. Which step should you take to verify the connectivity issue?
- A
Check if the Tier-1 Gateway is connected to the Tier-0 Gateway in the topology.
- B
Verify if the Edge Node hosting the Tier-1 Gateway is in a healthy state.
- C
Ensure the appropriate firewall rules are configured on the Tier-1 Gateway.
- D
Confirm that the logical switch is directly connected to the Tier-0 Gateway.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The Tier-1 Gateway is responsible for routing traffic within the NSX environment and relies on its connection to the Tier-0 Gateway for external network communication. By reviewing the network topology, you can confirm whether the Tier-1 Gateway is properly linked to the Tier-0 Gateway. This is a foundational step in troubleshooting connectivity issues related to the Tier-1 Gateway.
- A. Correct.
Correct. For proper connectivity, the Tier-1 Gateway must be connected to the Tier-0 Gateway in the network topology. If this connection is missing, external network communication will fail.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. While the Edge Node's health is important, the issue described is more likely related to the Tier-1 Gateway’s connectivity to the Tier-0 Gateway.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Firewall rules are critical for managing traffic, but they are not the first step to validate when the issue lies in network topology.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Logical switches are typically connected to the Tier-1 Gateway and not directly to the Tier-0 Gateway in most configurations.
