2V0-41.24 Question 381
Select 2A company is planning to deploy a site-to-site VPN using NSX-T Data Center. As part of this deployment, a new NSX Edge Node needs to be deployed. Which of the following requirements must be met to ensure a successful deployment of the NSX Edge Node for VPN functionality?
- A
The NSX Edge Node must be deployed in a cluster with the Compute role assigned.
- B
The NSX Edge Node must have at least one TEP (Tunnel Endpoint) interface configured.
- C
The NSX Edge Node must be deployed with at least two vNICs, one for the management network and one for the uplink network.
- D
The NSX Edge Node must be added to an Edge Cluster to participate in VPN services.
- E
The NSX Edge Node must have its management interface on the same VLAN as the NSX Manager.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: C, D
Explanation
Deploying an NSX Edge Node to support VPN requires proper network configuration and integration into the NSX infrastructure. The Edge Node must have at least two vNICs to separate management and uplink traffic, and it must be added to an Edge Cluster to provide VPN services. While TEP interfaces and management VLAN configurations are important for other NSX functionalities, they are not mandatory for VPN deployment.
- A. Incorrect.
Incorrect. NSX Edge Nodes should not be deployed in clusters with the Compute role. Instead, they are part of Edge Clusters which are used for services like VPN, Load Balancing, etc.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. TEP interfaces are required for overlay traffic, but they are not mandatory for VPN functionality.
- C. Correct.
Correct. NSX Edge Nodes require at least two vNICs, one for management and another for uplink traffic, to function properly in a VPN deployment.
- D. Correct.
Correct. NSX Edge Nodes must be added to an Edge Cluster to provide services such as VPN, Load Balancing, or Routing.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. The management interface of the NSX Edge Node does not need to be on the same VLAN as the NSX Manager. However, it should be reachable by the NSX Manager through proper routing or networking.
