2V0-41.24 Question 90
Single answerAn administrator is tasked with creating a new network in NSX-T Data Center to connect virtual machines. They are instructed to define a logical broadcast domain that isolates traffic between connected workloads. Which NSX-T construct should the administrator use to achieve this?
- A
Segment
- B
Transport Zone
- C
Tier-0 Gateway
- D
Edge Node
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
In NSX-T, a Segment is a key construct used to define a logical broadcast domain that provides Layer 2 connectivity for virtual machines. It isolates traffic between connected workloads, making it the correct choice for the scenario described. Other options, such as Transport Zone, Tier-0 Gateway, and Edge Node, serve different purposes in the NSX-T architecture and do not fulfill the requirements of the scenario.
- A. Correct.
A Segment in NSX-T is a logical broadcast domain that provides Layer 2 connectivity for workloads and isolates traffic between connected workloads. This matches the requirements in the scenario.
- B. Incorrect.
A Transport Zone defines the scope of transport nodes that can participate in a specific overlay or VLAN network but does not provide a logical broadcast domain or directly connect workloads.
- C. Incorrect.
A Tier-0 Gateway is used for north-south routing between the NSX-T environment and external networks. It is not responsible for providing Layer 2 connectivity or defining a broadcast domain.
- D. Incorrect.
An Edge Node is a component of NSX-T used to provide gateway services, such as routing and load balancing. It does not define a logical broadcast domain or connect virtual machines.
