2V0-41.24 Question 326
Select 3You are tasked with configuring a Tier-1 gateway to connect to an already operational Tier-0 gateway in an NSX environment. What steps must you take to ensure the Tier-1 gateway is properly connected to the Tier-0 gateway and traffic can flow between them?
- A
Configure the Tier-1 gateway to be set as the default gateway for all workloads.
- B
Attach the Tier-1 gateway to the Tier-0 gateway by selecting the Tier-0 gateway as its uplink.
- C
Enable route advertisement on the Tier-1 gateway to advertise its routes to the Tier-0 gateway.
- D
Ensure that the Tier-0 gateway has BGP or static routes configured to handle traffic from the Tier-1 gateway.
- E
Deploy an Edge Node Cluster to host traffic between the Tier-0 and Tier-1 gateways.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: B, C, D
Explanation
To connect a Tier-1 gateway to a Tier-0 gateway in an NSX environment, you need to ensure the Tier-1 gateway is linked to the Tier-0 gateway through its uplink. Additionally, route advertisement must be enabled on the Tier-1 gateway to propagate its routes to the Tier-0 gateway. On the Tier-0 gateway side, you must configure routing (BGP or static) to process traffic from the Tier-1 gateway. These steps enable proper communication between the two gateways and ensure traffic flow. Other factors, such as setting a default gateway for workloads or deploying an Edge Node Cluster, are separate considerations and are not directly related to the Tier-0 and Tier-1 gateway connection process.
- A. Incorrect.
This is not required for connecting Tier-0 and Tier-1 gateways. The default gateway for workloads can be set independently of this connection.
- B. Correct.
Correct. The Tier-1 gateway must have its uplink connected to the Tier-0 gateway for proper connectivity.
- C. Correct.
Correct. Route advertisement from Tier-1 to Tier-0 is necessary to allow communication between resources connected to the Tier-1 gateway and external networks.
- D. Correct.
Correct. The Tier-0 gateway must have routes configured (via BGP or static routing) to handle traffic coming from the Tier-1 gateway.
- E. Incorrect.
While deploying an Edge Node Cluster is necessary for certain NSX functionalities like north-south traffic, it is not specifically required just to connect Tier-0 and Tier-1 gateways.
