3V0-21.23 Exam Dumps : VMware vSphere 8.x Advanced Design

VMware NSX: NSX provides a centralized platform for network virtualization and security, which aligns with the requirement for enforcing virtual network security policies. It can manage network segmentation, security policies, and micro-segmentation across the entire environment, including both virtual machines and containerized applications.

Distributed Firewalls: NSX's distributed firewall allows for micro-segmentation, meaning that network access is denied between workloads by default, and access controls can be applied based on security policies. This meets the requirement of denying network access by default.

Port Mirroring: Port mirroring in NSX can integrate with the security team's network monitoring solutions. It enables the security team to capture traffic for monitoring and analysis, addressing the requirement for network monitoring support.

Must use the latest version of VMware vSphere

This is a constraint because the design must adhere to the specific requirement of using the latest version of VMware vSphere. This limits the possible versions or features that can be incorporated into the solution.

Must use VMXNET3 virtual network interface card

This is also a constraint because it mandates the use of a specific virtual network interface card (VMXNET3), restricting the design to that particular choice for network connectivity.

Availability design quality refers to the capacity of a system or infrastructure to remain operational, minimizing downtime, and ensuring continuous service delivery, especially in the event of a failure. The concept of N + 1 redundancy ensures that if one component fails (such as a host or a power supply), there is always an additional, spare component available to take over the workload, maintaining the system's availability.

N + 1 redundancy in a vSphere cluster means that the cluster has enough resources to tolerate the failure of one host without affecting the availability of the workloads. This setup provides high availability and resilience in the event of a host failure.
