How many VSM modes are there in a Cisco Nexus 1000V environment?
A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3
E. 4
F. 5
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
VSM and VEM no longer need to share VLAN, and can even be multiple Layer 3 hops apart. Compared to Layer 2 mode, the three VLANs are used as
follows.
Control VLAN is exclusively used for VSM HA communication so make sure both primary and secondary VSMs are on this VLAN
Management VLAN functionality remains the same as Layer 2 mode with VSM Mgmt0 interface can potentially be used to communicate with VEM (see below)
Packet VLAN is no longer relevant and the VSM third interface can be set to any VLAN.
