   An administrator is troubleshooting a connectivity issue on an MX7000 chassis. One compute sled is not receiving a link, but other sleds connected to the same FEM are working. The FEM status in OME-M shows 'Online'. What is the most likely cause of this issue?

   • AThe FEM is not connected to the IOM
   • BThe FEM firmware is out of date
   • CThe IOM is not configured with the correct VLAN
   • DThe mezzanine card in the compute sled is not seated properly

   A company has an MX7000 chassis with two IOMs and two FEMs. The administrator needs to configure the network so that compute sleds in the chassis can communicate with each other and with the external network. The administrator has created a VLAN on the IOM. What else must be done to enable inter-sled communication?

   • AAdd the FEM-facing ports on the IOM to the VLAN
   • BConfigure a port profile on each compute sled to allow the VLAN
   • CEnable the VLAN on the FEM
   • DCreate a static route on the IOM for the VLAN

   A company has an MX7000 chassis with two IOMs and two FEMs. The administrator has configured a VLAN on the IOM for a specific application. The application team reports that they cannot communicate with the external network. The administrator has verified that the uplink ports on the IOM are up. What should the administrator check next?

   • AUpdate the FEM firmware to the latest version
   • BCheck the FEM status in OME-M
   • CVerify that the FEM-facing ports on the IOM are members of the VLAN
   • DReboot the compute sleds to refresh the network configuration
