VCP-VCF Administrator 2V0-17.25 Reddit Questions

The VCF 9.0 Automation Guide – Content Sharing Policies describes how to control catalog item visibility. Administrators create Content Sharing Policies to restrict which groups can see specific catalog items.

Steps required for this scenario:

Create a new Content Sharing Policy (D): This policy governs catalog item access.

Add the catalog item to the new policy (B): The Mobile Application Backend blueprint must be explicitly added.

Configure the scope as Project → FitnessTrackerApp (C): This ensures the catalog restriction applies only within the FitnessTrackerApp project.

Add the FTA_LeadDevelopers Group (F): Grants visibility only to this group, fulfilling the requirement that only Lead Developers initially see the item.

Incorrect options:

Deployment Limit Policy (A) controls resource limits, not catalog visibility.

FTA_Developers (E) should not be included, as the requirement is Lead Developers only.

Organization scope (G) would expose the item to all projects, which violates the requirement.

Thus, the administrator must configure a Content Sharing Policy, add the catalog item, scope it to the FitnessTrackerApp project, and restrict it to the Lead Developers group.

VCF 9.0 licensing is managed through VCF Operations and the VCF Business Services console. The product requires periodic license updates even in connected mode. The documentation states explicitly: “You must update your licenses at least once every 6 months (180 days). If license usage data is not submitted… your licenses are treated as expired, your hosts are disconnected from the vCenter instance, and you cannot start any workload operations.” This language is repeated in the Licensing Overview and Upgrade/Registration sections, confirming the 180-day requirement applies to both connected and disconnected modes (in connected mode usage submission is automated, but you still must perform an update action). Therefore, the correct interval is 180 days.

The VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 networking design documentation specifies that container workloads running on VMware Kubernetes Service (VKS) with NSX networking require external connectivity via a Centralized Connectivity model. This is implemented using an NSX Tier-0 (T0) Gateway which provides north-south routing to the corporate physical network.

The guide states: “In VKS deployments backed by NSX networking, workloads achieve external reachability through a centralized Tier-0 Gateway, ensuring integration with corporate networking and enterprise services.” This model ensures traffic consolidation, policy enforcement, and simplified routing for Kubernetes workloads.

Round-robin Connectivity is not a supported NSX gateway connectivity model.

Distributed Connectivity refers to east-west NSX overlay communication, not north-south connectivity.

Physical Connectivity is not precise, as workloads do not connect directly to the physical network; instead, they use logical routing.

Centralized Connectivity is the correct model, where the T0 Gateway centralizes external routing for container workloads.

In VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), network segments (both overlay and VLAN-backed segments) are created and managed through VMware NSX, specifically via the NSX Manager interface.

The VCF 9.0 Networking documentation states that:

“NSX Manager provides centralized management for logical switching, routing, security, and segment creation within a workload domain.”

A network segment in VCF corresponds to an NSX logical segment, which is used to provide Layer 2 connectivity to workloads. These segments are defined within NSX and can be attached to Tier-0 or Tier-1 gateways depending on routing requirements.

Other options are incorrect:

vCenter (A) manages ESXi hosts and VMs but does not create NSX logical segments.

VCF Operations (C) is used for monitoring and analytics, not configuration.

SDDC Manager (D) handles lifecycle management and domain creation but does not directly create network segments.

Therefore, the administrator must use NSX Manager to create a new network segment in VMware Cloud Foundation.
