  1. Look at the picture, the overlay and vlan segment belong to the same N-VDS the answer should be one.

  2. You said a TZ can have only 2 N-VDS assigned, but here all the TZ’s have only 1 N-VDS’s having same name, so when transport node join the TZ only 1 N-VDS will be installed there because for 2 or more N-VDS to be installed on the host, their names must be unique. But here all the N-VDS have same name. BTW N-VDS can be attached to an Overlay TZ and VLAN TZ simultaneously whereby the N-VDS name will be the same.

    so I believe only 1 N-VDS is required. Answer will be D.

  3. The limitation is N-VDS names must be unique to add additional N-VDSs on a given transport node. In this case all N-VDSs for all transport zones have the same name so only one can be added. Answer: D

  4. Correct answer B = 3 N-VDS

    -A N-VDS can be attached to an Overlay TZ and VLAN TZ simultaneously whereby the N-VDS name will be the same.

    -A N-VDS can only append to a single VLAN TZ but a transport node can append to multiple VLAN TZs w/ multiple N-VDS.

    -A N-VDS can only append to a single Overlay TZ.

    -Multiple N-VDS and traditional VDS can co-exist but a pNIC (physical port) can only be associated with one or the other. The pNIC cannot be associated with a N-VDS and VDS.

    -A transport node can append to a single Overlay TZ. Consequently, only a single N-VDS can attach to an Overlay TZ on that transport node.

  5. a host can be only in one Transport zone. a transport zone can have only 2 N-VDS assigned, 1 overlay+1 vLAN
