Single answerAn organization is configuring an L2 VPN in VMware NSX to extend a subnet from their on-premises data center to a remote site. The administrator has created an L2 VPN server on the NSX Edge device. What is the next step to establish the L2 VPN session between the on-premises site and the remote site?
- A
Configure the L2 VPN client settings on the NSX Edge device at the remote site.
- B
Assign a public IP address to the L2 VPN server and enable NAT.
- C
Configure the required firewall rules to allow L2 VPN traffic between the two sites.
- D
Enable DHCP on the L2 VPN server.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
To establish an L2 VPN session between the on-premises site and the remote site, the administrator must configure the L2 VPN client settings on the NSX Edge device at the remote site. This step ensures that the client can connect to the L2 VPN server, allowing the subnet to be extended across the VPN. Other considerations, such as firewall rules, may be necessary but are not the immediate next step.
- A. Correct.
The next step after creating the L2 VPN server is to configure the L2 VPN client settings on the NSX Edge device at the remote site. This is essential to establish the session and ensure the communication between the two sites.
- B. Incorrect.
Assigning a public IP address and enabling NAT is not a required step for establishing an L2 VPN session. NAT is not a dependency in this scenario.
- C. Incorrect.
While firewall rules are necessary for connectivity, configuring them is not the next immediate step after creating the L2 VPN server.
- D. Incorrect.
Enabling DHCP on the L2 VPN server is not required and is unrelated to establishing an L2 VPN session.
