You are designing a network upgrade for a data center that is virtualized with VMware. The customer already uses NSX. You are handling the CX switch design, while the customer is handling the NSX design. What is one question to discuss for the logical design?

• A. How to correlate isolated VLAN IDs with primary VLAN IDs and whether to permit any traffic between isolated VLAN endpoints.
• B. Whether the customer has a particular scheme they prefer for mapping VLANs to VNIs.
• C. Into how many VRFs would the customer needs to segment the overlay networks.
• D. What routing is required between subnets inside and outside the overlay.

During the assumptions and constraints phase of a proposal, the customer mentions they have a hard budget cap that is lower than what is needed for full fabric redundancy. What should the architect do?

• A. Refuse to continue the engagement
• B. Document the budget constraint, present the trade-offs of reduced redundancy options, and let the customer make an informed decision
• C. Ignore the budget and design for full redundancy anyway
• D. Silently reduce redundancy without informing the customer

Which two factors should be part of a data center network's high availability (HA) design?
(Choose two.)

• A. Placing all spine switches in a single power zone
• B. Selecting a single top-of-rack switch per rack with no backup
• C. Redundant power and diverse uplinks between tiers
• D. VSX (Virtual Switching Extension) between top-of-rack switch pairs
• E. Disabling LACP to simplify configuration

Waratah Hospital, based in Australia, is planning to move many data center services to new facility. (The remaining legacy data center will not be part of this project.) Waratah Hospital hired an external consultant to assist with the new data center network design.
Based on the requirements for the data center network infrastructure, the external consultant has created a high-level design. The below summarizes the content of the design document.
Requirements and information:
- Six racks in the data center room (single row).
- Redundant Top of Rack leaf switches with back-to-front cooling in each rack, providing 10/25 Gbps connectivity to servers, storage, and other devices.
- Four 100 GbE uplinks per leaf switch.
- The customer requested to install all switch ports facing the back of the rack racks (hot aisle.)
- OOB management for servers, storage, and network has to be provided through an external switch with back-to-front cooling. This switch has to be included in the solution. One OOB switch provides connectivity for two racks.
- Core equipment for the OOBM network is being reused.
- Middle-of-row spine switches.
-The data center should connect to the hospital building with links that provide 400 Gbps.
- Internet access is provided through an existing firewall cluster with two firewalls, each firewall in one data room. The second firewall is operating in standby mode, VRRP is utilized on the firewalls for failover. The data center network should connect to these firewalls with links that total
100 Gbps.
- The external link is a dark fiber direct link based on single-mode fiber (OS2). The distance to the main hospital 1.5 KM. The links will terminate on two core switches in the hospital.
The customer also requires:
- 99.999% uptime for this life-critical environment.
- Planned and unplanned downtime has to be minimized.
- Software upgrades are only allowed once per year with close to zero downtime.
- All life-critical resources are accessed locally, and all resources exist within the hospital campus.
- Waratah Hospital requires a highly secure environment for the data center. Encrypted wire speed connectivity between the data room and the hospital is a must-have because the link between the buildings crosses a public road.
- Waratah Hospital has a mix of virtualized (vSphere) servers. Nutanix storage, bare metal servers, backup servers and other devices.
In the past, the hospital has had a security breach that resulted in data loss, network downtime, and identity theft.
What are valid assumptions that can be made for this scenario when creating the network design documentation? (Choose two.)

• A. The customer s staff can implement the project.
• B. Sufficient cabling between data centers will be available.
• C. The customer's budget for the project will be met.
• D. Hardware delivery will meet project timelines.
• E. Sufficient virtualization resources for the deployment of software will be available.
