2V0-41.24 Question 386
Select 2You are tasked with configuring a new Edge Cluster in an NSX-T environment to support north-south traffic for a multi-tier application. During configuration, you need to ensure redundancy and high availability for the Edge Nodes. Which steps should you take to correctly configure the Edge Cluster?
- A
Add at least two Edge Nodes to the Edge Cluster.
- B
Assign the Edge Cluster to a Transport Zone with an overlay transport type.
- C
Configure the Edge Cluster with active-active failover mode for redundancy.
- D
Ensure the Edge Nodes within the Edge Cluster are connected to the same Tier-1 Gateway.
- E
Assign an IP address pool for the Edge Nodes to facilitate communication.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
To configure a new Edge Cluster, at least two Edge Nodes must be added to provide redundancy and high availability, and the Edge Cluster must be assigned to a Transport Zone with an overlay transport type to support overlay networking. Other configurations, such as failover mode or IP address pools, are related to logical routers or other services, not Edge Cluster setup directly.
- A. Correct.
Adding at least two Edge Nodes ensures redundancy and high availability for the Edge Cluster to handle north-south traffic.
- B. Correct.
An Edge Cluster must be assigned to a Transport Zone with an overlay transport type to facilitate the necessary overlay networking and communication.
- C. Incorrect.
Edge Clusters are not configured with active-active failover mode; failover mode is determined by the logical router's configuration, not the Edge Cluster itself.
- D. Incorrect.
Edge Nodes within an Edge Cluster do not need to be connected to the same Tier-1 Gateway. Tier-1 Gateways can connect to multiple Edge Clusters depending on the deployment requirements.
- E. Incorrect.
IP address pools are not directly assigned to the Edge Nodes during Edge Cluster configuration. IP pools are typically used for uplink interfaces or other network services.
