2V0-41.24 Question 349
Select 3You are tasked with creating an uplink trunk segment in an NSX-T Data Center environment. The uplinks will connect to physical network infrastructure, and the segment will transport VLAN traffic. Which of the following steps are required to correctly create the uplink trunk segment?
- A
Assign a VLAN range to the segment during its creation.
- B
Configure the uplink segment to use a Transport Zone of type VLAN.
- C
Associate the uplink trunk segment with an Edge Node Cluster.
- D
Specify a dedicated IP address for each VLAN in the trunk segment.
- E
Ensure the physical switch ports connected to the uplinks are configured as trunk ports.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, E
Explanation
To create an uplink trunk segment, you must define a VLAN range for the segment, use a VLAN-type Transport Zone, and ensure the physical switch ports are configured as trunk ports. These steps are essential to establish connectivity between the NSX-T environment and the physical network infrastructure. Associating the segment with an Edge Node Cluster or configuring dedicated IP addresses for each VLAN are not part of the uplink trunk segment creation process.
- A. Correct.
Correct: When creating an uplink trunk segment in NSX-T, you must define a VLAN range to allow the segment to transport traffic for those VLANs.
- B. Correct.
Correct: The Transport Zone used must be of type VLAN, as this is required for uplink trunk segments to connect NSX-T logical networks to the physical network.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While Edge Node Clusters are used for routing and load balancing, they are not directly associated during the creation of an uplink trunk segment.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect: A dedicated IP address is not required for each VLAN in a trunk segment. The trunk segment carries VLAN-tagged traffic, but IP addressing is managed by other components like TEPs or logical segments.
- E. Correct.
Correct: The physical network switch ports corresponding to the uplinks must be configured as trunk ports to allow VLAN-tagged traffic to pass through.
