NEW QUESTION # 37
Exhibit
An NC2 on Azure cluster was deployed with two Flow Gateway in HA (FHW1 and FGW2). After a week of use, four bare-metal nodes were added to the NC2 cluster and additional workloads were added. The existing workloads were using floating IPs to allow inbound traffic to communicate with the running workloads on the NC2 cluster.
It was determined that additional bandwidth for north/south traffic would be needed. Two additional Flow Gateways were added (FGW3 and FGW4) from the NC2 portal configuration menu.
The existing workloads prior to expansion on the NC2 cluster will be able to use which Flow Gateways using the NAT traffic path after the expansion?
- A. All four Flow Gateways.
- B. They will be able to use FGW3 and FGW4 once the NC2 workloads reboots.
- C. All four Flow Gateways using a MAC/Hash algorithm.
- D. Only the Flow Gateway each workload was using prior to expansion.
Answer: D
Explanation:
In the NC2 on Azure cluster scenario, the existing workloads were using floating IPs for inbound traffic before the addition of new Flow Gateways (FGW3 and FGW4). The NAT traffic path established initially will continue to direct traffic through the originally assigned Flow Gateways (FGW1 and FGW2). The existing workloads will not automatically utilize the new Flow Gateways (FGW3 and FGW4) without a reconfiguration or reboot, which reassigns the NAT paths.

NEW QUESTION # 41
The cluster has the following configuration:
A Transit VPC exists as Default, but is additionally configured with a overlay-external-subnet-nonat overlay subnet The ERP for the Transit VPC is 10.1.1.0/25 A User VPC exists named User_VPC_Prod The ERP for the User VPC is 10.1.1.0/24 Outbound and inbound routes have been configured A User VM NO-NAT subnet has been configured in the User VPC The administrator has successfully created a VM and added the NIC associated with the NO-NAT subnet, but is not able to communication with other resources.
Which option will resolve this issue?
- A. The ERP in the User VPC must be from a different CIDR range than the ERP in the transit VPC.
- B. Check that the network ACLs for the NO-NAT subnet are not blocking the necessary traffic.
- C. Verify that the route table associated with the User VPC has appropriate routes to the Transit VPC.
- D. Ensure that the security groups associated with the VM allow traffic to and from the desired resources.
Answer: A
Explanation:
In this scenario, the issue arises from overlapping IP address ranges between the Transit VPC and the User VPC. Here's a detailed breakdown:
* Understanding ERPs (Elastic Routing Prefixes):
* The ERP for the Transit VPC is 10.1.1.0/25, which covers IP addresses from 10.1.1.0 to
10.1.1.127.
* The ERP for the User VPC is 10.1.1.0/24, which covers IP addresses from 10.1.1.0 to 10.1.1.255.
* IP Address Overlap:
* Since 10.1.1.0/25 is a subset of 10.1.1.0/24, there is a significant overlap in the IP address ranges of these two ERPs.
* This overlap can cause routing issues because the same IP address range is being used in both VPCs, leading to ambiguity in routing and communication.
* Communication Issue:
* When a VM in the User VPC tries to communicate with other resources, the network cannot accurately determine the correct route due to the overlapping IP address ranges.
* This overlap prevents proper routing and results in the VM being unable to communicate with other resources as intended.
* Resolution:
* To resolve this issue, the ERPs must be in different CIDR ranges. This means the IP address ranges for the Transit VPC and the User VPC should not overlap.
* For example, if the Transit VPC uses 10.1.1.0/25, the User VPC could use a different range such as 10.1.2.0/24 or any other range that does not overlap with 10.1.1.0/25.
By ensuring that the ERPs are in different CIDR ranges, the network can properly route traffic between the VPCs without any conflicts or ambiguities, thereby enabling the VM in the User VPC to communicate with other resources effectively.

NEW QUESTION # 48
An administrator is deploying an NC2 cluster in Azure and observes on NC2 console that nodes will not progress and continue in a Booting state.
What is the most likely cause for the node not continuing to deploy?
- A. The Azure account does not have an active subscription.
- B. An Azure Support case must first be submitted for allowlisting the Azure subscription.
- C. The subscription has not been validated to be allowlisted by Microsoft.
- D. A private DNS server is being used that is not reachable.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Azure Subscription Validation: When deploying an NC2 cluster, the Azure subscription must be validated and allowlisted by Microsoft. This is a crucial step to ensure that the necessary permissions and configurations are set up for the deployment.
Booting State Issue: If the nodes are stuck in the Booting state, it often indicates that the subscription has not been properly validated and allowlisted. This prevents the deployment from progressing as required resources and permissions are not fully accessible.
Checking Allowlisting Status: Administrators should verify that their subscription has been allowlisted by contacting Azure support or checking the status through the Azure portal.
Resolution: Once the subscription is validated and allowlisted by Microsoft, the deployment should proceed without the nodes getting stuck in the Booting state.
