2V0-41.24 Question 60
Single answerYour organization is deploying VMware NSX to segment the network for different departments. The IT team has been tasked with creating segments that ensure internal communication within the department while also supporting communication across departments through a centralized routing mechanism. Which type of segment should the IT team configure to meet these requirements?
- A
Overlay Segment
- B
VLAN-Backed Segment
- C
Routed Segment
- D
Isolated Segment
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Routed Segments are designed to enable communication between different segments through a centralized routing mechanism, making them ideal for environments where inter-departmental communication is required. The other segment types either limit communication to within the segment or are not designed for centralized routing.
- A. Incorrect.
An Overlay Segment is used for logical network connectivity over an existing physical network but does not inherently provide centralized routing between segments.
- B. Incorrect.
A VLAN-Backed Segment is tied to a physical VLAN in the underlying infrastructure and is not intended for centralized communication across multiple segments.
- C. Correct.
A Routed Segment allows communication between different segments through a centralized routing mechanism, which matches the scenario described.
- D. Incorrect.
An Isolated Segment provides internal communication within the segment but does not allow communication across segments, making it unsuitable for this use case.
