Question 1

When configuring an alert email in Prism Central deployment within an NC2 environment, what is required in order for the emails to be sent properly?



Answer : A

SMTP Server Configuration: To send alert emails from Prism Central, it is essential to configure an SMTP server in the Prism Central settings. This server handles the email sending process, ensuring that alerts generated by Prism Central are properly delivered to the specified email addresses.

Email Notification Setup: The SMTP server settings include the server address, port, and authentication details. Once these settings are correctly configured, Prism Central can use the SMTP server to send out alert emails reliably.

Question 2

An administrator is deploying a new cluster on Azure and would like to ensure the data is encrypted. Due to cost constraints the deployment will leverage the native local key manager (LKM).

What is the minimal number of nodes needed to support the Nutanix native LKM?



Answer : C

Local Key Manager (LKM): The native local key manager in Nutanix requires a minimum number of nodes to function correctly and provide key management services.

Minimum Node Requirement for LKM: To support the Nutanix native LKM, at least three nodes are needed. This configuration ensures that the key management service can achieve the necessary quorum and redundancy for secure operations.

Question 3

An administrator has recently deployed an NC2 on azure cluster, but does not have connectivity back to the on-premises environment. The administrator would like to start working on configuring the new cluster.

What is the best way to get access to Prism Central?



Answer : A

Jump Host Deployment: A Jump Host provides a secure method to access the NC2 environment when direct connectivity is unavailable. Deploying it in an external VNet allows flexibility in managing network access and security.

VNet Peering: By peering the external VNet (where the Jump Host is deployed) with the VNet containing Prism Central, the administrator can establish a communication pathway. This setup enables secure and controlled access to Prism Central from the Jump Host.

Question 4

What is the minimum number of nodes needed to deploy an RF3 NC2 cluster?



Answer : C

Replication Factor (RF3): RF3 requires that data is replicated across three different nodes to ensure data durability and fault tolerance. This replication scheme allows the system to tolerate the failure of two nodes simultaneously.

Minimum Node Requirement for RF3: To meet the RF3 requirements while maintaining operational capability, a minimum of five nodes is necessary. This configuration ensures that there are enough nodes to distribute the data and provide the necessary redundancy.

Question 5

An administrator needs to attach a network interface to a Flow Gateway VM.

What option should be enabled in the Azure portal and in the OS of the Flow gateway VM to meet this network requirement?



Answer : C

IP Forwarding in Azure: Enabling IP forwarding allows the VM to forward network traffic that is not specifically addressed to itself. This is necessary for network devices like the Flow Gateway VM to route traffic correctly.

Network Interface Configuration: Both the Azure portal settings and the VM's operating system must have IP forwarding enabled to ensure proper traffic handling and routing capabilities.

Question 6

Which entity should be contacted for cloud hardware support (EC2 instances, VPC, etc) related to NC2?



Answer : B

Cloud Hardware Support: For issues related to cloud hardware, such as EC2 instances or VPC configurations, the responsible entity is typically the public cloud vendor.

Nutanix Responsibility: Nutanix manages the software layer and integration aspects of the NC2 service, but the underlying hardware support is managed by the cloud provider (e.g., AWS, Azure).

Support Process:

Public Cloud Vendor: Contact the public cloud vendor for issues directly related to the hardware, as they own and manage the physical infrastructure.

Nutanix: For software and configuration issues specific to the NC2 service, contact Nutanix support.

Conclusion: For cloud hardware-related support, the appropriate contact is the public cloud vendor.

Question 7

After creating a new Nutanix User VPC, what is needed to allow traffic to flow out of the Flow gateway VM when using the NATed Path?



Answer : C

NATed Path Configuration: When using the NATed Path, it is essential to ensure that traffic can flow out of the Flow gateway VM to external networks.

Default Route: Adding a default route on the Nutanix User VPC ensures that all outbound traffic is directed to the appropriate network gateway.

Configuration Steps:

Navigate to the routing settings of the Nutanix User VPC.

Add a default route with the destination of 0.0.0.0/0, pointing to the External Overlay network.

Security Group Settings:

Ensure that the External Flow Gateway Security Group on the External NIC allows outbound traffic.

Ensure that the Internal Flow Gateway Security Group on the internal NIC allows outbound traffic (if needed for internal network flows).

Conclusion: Properly configuring the default route on the Nutanix User VPC enables outbound traffic flow via the NATed Path through the External Overlay network.
