2V0-41.24 Question 416
Select 3An organization wants to improve its network security posture by identifying traffic patterns and application dependencies within their NSX-T Data Center environment. They have recently deployed NSX Intelligence. Which of the following steps are required to enable application discovery and enforce micro-segmentation policies using NSX Intelligence?
- A
Enable NSX Intelligence appliance in the NSX Manager UI and ensure adequate CPU and memory resources are allocated.
- B
Configure IPFIX (IP Flow Information Export) on all NSX-T Edge nodes to collect flow data for analysis.
- C
Verify that the NSX Intelligence appliance has connectivity with the NSX Manager and ESXi hosts.
- D
Use the NSX Intelligence UI to visualize traffic flows and create recommended firewall policies.
- E
Manually input application dependency data into NSX Manager for NSX Intelligence to process.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
NSX Intelligence is a tool designed to enhance network security by providing visibility into traffic patterns and application dependencies. To effectively use NSX Intelligence, the appliance must be enabled, properly resourced, and connected to the NSX Manager and ESXi hosts. With its UI, administrators can visualize traffic flows and create recommended micro-segmentation policies. IPFIX configuration and manual input of dependency data are not needed, as NSX Intelligence handles flow data collection and analysis natively.
- A. Correct.
Correct: Enabling the NSX Intelligence appliance is required to activate its features and ensure it has sufficient resources to process the data.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: IPFIX configuration is not required for NSX Intelligence, as NSX Intelligence natively collects flow data from the NSX infrastructure.
- C. Correct.
Correct: The NSX Intelligence appliance must have proper connectivity with NSX Manager and ESXi hosts to collect and process network traffic data.
- D. Correct.
Correct: NSX Intelligence is used to visualize traffic flows, identify application dependencies, and generate recommended micro-segmentation firewall policies.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Application dependency data is automatically discovered by NSX Intelligence based on traffic flows; manual input is not required.
