Which command Is used to test management connectivity from a transport node to NSX Manager?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation The NSX Manager management plane communicates with the transport nodes by using APH Server over NSX-RPC/TCP through port 1234. CCP communicates with the transport nodes by using APH Server over NSX-RPC/TCP through port 1235.
2V0-41.23 Exam Question 2
When a stateful service is enabled for the first lime on a Tier-0 Gateway, what happens on the NSX Edge node'
Correct Answer: A
Explanation The answer is A. SR is instantiated and automatically connected with DR. SR stands for Service Router and DR stands for Distributed Router. They are components of the NSX Edge node that provide different functions1 The SR is responsible for providing stateful services such as NAT, firewall, load balancing, VPN, and DHCP. The DR is responsible for providing distributed routing and switching between logical segments and the physical network1 When a stateful service is enabled for the first time on a Tier-0 Gateway, the NSX Edge node automatically creates an SR instance and connects it with the existing DR instance. This allows the stateful service to be applied to the traffic that passes through the SR before reaching the DR2 According to the VMware NSX 4.x Professional Exam Guide, understanding the SR and DR components and their functions is one of the exam objectives3 To learn more about the SR and DR components and how they work on the NSX Edge node, you can refer to the following resources: VMware NSX Documentation: NSX Edge Components 1 VMware NSX 4.x Professional: NSX Edge Architecture VMware NSX 4.x Professional: NSX Edge Routing
2V0-41.23 Exam Question 3
A customer has a network where BGP has been enabled and the BGP neighbor is configured on the Tier-0 Gateway. An NSX administrator used the get gateways command to retrieve this Information: Which two commands must be executed to check BGP neighbor status? (Choose two.)
Correct Answer: B,D
Explanation According to the image that you sent, the BGP neighbor is configured on the tier-0 gateway with the UUID 9f8e3a7c-5f9c-4d1a-bb6f-9c7f3d6f3d63 and the VRF ID 4. Therefore, to check the BGP neighbor status, you need to enter the VRF context of 4 and execute the get bgp neighbor command on the tier-0 service router (SR) node. The other options are either incorrect or not applicable for this scenario. vrf 1, vrf 3, and sa-nexedge-01(tier1_dr)> get bgp neighbor are not related to the BGP neighbor configuration on the tier-0 gateway. sa-nexedge-01(tier1_sr> get bgp neighbor is also not relevant, as there is no BGP neighbor configured on the tier-1 gateway.
2V0-41.23 Exam Question 4
Which three NSX Edge components are used for North-South Malware Prevention? (Choose three.)
Correct Answer: B,D,F
Explanation B: RAPID. This is correct. RAPID stands for Real-time Anti-malware Protection with Intelligent Detection. It is a component of the NSX Edge node that provides malware prevention for the north-south traffic. RAPID extracts files from the network traffic and analyzes them for malicious behavior using hash-based detection, local analysis, and cloud analysis techniques1 D: IDS/IPS. This is correct. IDS/IPS stands for Intrusion Detection and Prevention System. It is a component of the NSX Edge node that provides intrusion detection and prevention for the north-south traffic. IDS/IPS monitors the network traffic and compares it against a known set of signatures that specify patterns for different types of network intrusions. IDS/IPS can generate alerts or block the traffic based on the matching signatures and the configured actions2 F: Reputation Service. This is correct. Reputation Service is a component of the NSX Edge node that provides reputation-based filtering for the north-south traffic. Reputation Service uses a cloud-based database of known malicious IP addresses and domains to block or allow the traffic based on the reputation score of the source or destination. Reputation Service can also integrate with third-party reputation providers to enhance the security coverage3 A: Thin Agent. This is incorrect. Thin Agent is not a component of the NSX Edge node, but rather a component of the NSX Guest Introspection platform that runs on the virtual machine endpoints in the distributed east-west traffic. Thin Agent enables communication between the virtual machines and the NSX Manager, and facilitates malware prevention and intrusion detection on the host level. C: Security Hub. This is incorrect. Security Hub is not a component of the NSX Edge node, but rather a component of the VMware Cloud Services platform that provides a unified view of security posture across multiple cloud environments. Security Hub integrates with NSX Advanced Threat Prevention to collect and display security events, alerts, and recommendations from NSX IDS/IPS and NSX Malware Prevention features. E: Security Analyzer. This is incorrect. Security Analyzer is not a real product name or component name related to NSX Edge or NSX Advanced Threat Prevention. It is a fictional name that does not exist in the VMware portfolio. To learn more about NSX Edge components for North-South Malware Prevention, you can refer to the following resources: VMware NSX Documentation: Overview of NSX IDS/IPS and NSX Malware Prevention 2 VMware NSX Documentation: Configure North-South Malware Prevention 1 VMware NSX Documentation: Configure North-South Intrusion Detection and Prevention VMware NSX Documentation: Configure North-South Reputation-Based Filtering 3
2V0-41.23 Exam Question 5
Which three DHCP Services are supported by NSX? (Choose three.)
Correct Answer: A,C,E
Explanation According to the VMware NSX Documentation1, NSX-T Data Center supports the following types of DHCP configuration on a segment: Local DHCP server: This option creates a local DHCP server that has an IP address on the segment and provides dynamic IP assignment service only to the VMs that are attached to the segment. Gateway DHCP server: This option is attached to a tier-0 or tier-1 gateway and provides DHCP service to the networks (overlay segments) that are directly connected to the gateway and configured to use a gateway DHCP server. DHCP Relay: This option relays the DHCP client requests to the external DHCP servers that can be in any subnet, outside the SDDC, or in the physical network.
