1. Question #1

   During an initial design workshop with stakeholders, the architect was provided with an overview of the current state and other information required to proceed to the design phase. The architect has assumed that the solution will need to support high availability for workloads. Given the assumption, which statement should the architect document as a risk?

   • A. The solution supports the separation of management components from production workloads.
   • B. BGP is the dynamic routing protocol on the physical fabric and cannot be changed.
   • C. The solution supports a recovery point objective (RPO) of 24 hours for infrastructurecomponents.
   • D. The entire infrastructure is hosted on a single physical site.

2. Question #2

   As a part of designing the VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Operations deployment, the architect must ensure that VCF Operations is capable of monitoring the customer's infrastructure made up of a central datacenter and multiple remote sites in different countries. During a design workshop, the following requirements were identified: • REQ001: Corporate IT users must be able to review performance, alerts, and capacity details from a single management point. • REQ002: The monitoring solution must support local data collection at remote sites to prevent data loss from unstable WAN connections. • REQ003: The monitoring solution must comply with local data sovereignty regulations. Which deployment model fulfills all design requirements?

   • A. Single VCF fleet with Cloud Proxies in each remote site
   • B. Each remote site will be its own VCF fleet.
   • C. All remote sites will be a single VCF fleet.
   • D. A single fleet with multiple VCF instances

6. Question #6

   An architect is designing the network model for a new VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) solution. During the requirements gathering phase, the customer stated that the VCF solution must comply with the organization's security policy for traffic separation. The customer provided the architect with the following information from the policy: • The physical network architecture is divided into multiple security zones. • Traffic is not permitted to traverse between the zones with the exception of pre-approved monitoring tools. • Physical servers may not be connected to multiple zones via a single network interface. • Management and Storage traffic must be kept within network zone 1. • Workload traffic must be kept within network zone 2. The architect makes a design decision to use two vSphere Distributed Switches per cluster for both the Management and VI Workload domains. Which two additional design decisions should the architect include in the virtual networking design for the separation of traffic between the vSphere Distributed Switches? (Choose two.)

   Select 2 answers.

   • A. Configure one vSphere Distributed Switch for ESX Management, Storage, and vMotion traffic.
   • B. Configure one vSphere Distributed Switch for all storage traffic.
   • C. Configure one vSphere Distributed Switch for ESX Management, Storage, vMotion traffic and NSX - Host and Edge TEP/Edge Uplinks.
   • D. Configure one vSphere Distributed Switch for all workload traffic and all NSX - Host and Edge TEP/Edge Uplinks.
   • E. Configure one vSphere Distributed Switch for all NSX - Host and Edge TEP/Edge Uplinks.
