Exam NCP-MCI v6.5 topic 1 question 34 discussion

Actual exam question from Nutanix's NCP-MCI v6.5
Question #: 34
Topic #: 1
[All NCP-MCI v6.5 Questions]

An administrator is performing validation testing of a newly deployed cluster. During this test, the administrator disconnects each LAN interface from each of the nodes while pinging the hypervisor and guest VMs.
When the first interface is disconnected, pings continue as expected to the hypervisor, but pings stop responding from the guest. Pings continue when the interface is reconnected. When the second interface is disconnected, pings continue to both the hypervisor and guest VMs.
What could be the cause of this error?

  • A. One of the network interfaces has a bad patch cable
  • B. Portfast is not enabled on the switch ports
  • C. Switch ports are configured with different VLANs
  • D. This is normal behavior for LAN Failover

Selected Answer: C
The behavior described in the scenario is not normal for LAN failover. In a properly configured LAN failover setup, the guest VMs should continue to respond to pings even when one interface is disconnected, as the traffic should be rerouted through the remaining active interfaces. Given the options, the most likely cause of this issue is C. Switch ports are configured with different VLANs. If the two network interfaces are connected to switch ports configured with different VLANs, then disconnecting one interface could cause the guest VMs in one VLAN to become unreachable. This would explain why pings to the hypervisor continue (as it may have access to all VLANs), but pings to the guest VMs stop when one interface is disconnected.
