2V0-41.24 Question 334
Single answerAn administrator is tasked with creating an uplink segment in VMware NSX-T to provide connectivity between a physical network and a Transport Node. The physical environment uses VLAN 200 for this connectivity. Which configuration step must the administrator perform to successfully create the uplink segment?
- A
Assign VLAN 200 to the uplink segment during its creation.
- B
Create a new Transport Zone and assign VLAN 200 to it.
- C
Configure the Transport Node to use VLAN 200 as its default VLAN.
- D
Assign an IP address to the uplink segment for traffic routing.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
To establish connectivity between a physical network and a Transport Node in VMware NSX-T, an uplink segment must be mapped to the physical network's VLAN. In this case, VLAN 200 is used for connectivity, so it must be assigned to the uplink segment during its creation. This mapping enables the network traffic to traverse between the virtual and physical environments correctly.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Assigning VLAN 200 to the uplink segment ensures that the segment uses the correct VLAN to connect the physical network and the Transport Node.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. While Transport Zones are critical for traffic management, VLANs are not directly assigned to them. Instead, VLANs are used in uplink segments.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. The Transport Node does not have a 'default VLAN' setting. VLAN configuration is tied to uplink profiles and segments.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Uplink segments themselves do not require IP addresses; IP addressing is more relevant to logical interfaces or gateways.
