A VxRail cluster is configured with two ToR switches. The administrator wants to ensure that vSAN traffic is resilient to a single link failure. The current configuration uses Active/Active NIC teaming. What is the primary consideration for this configuration?

Active/Active teaming provides load balancing and failover, but the vSAN traffic distribution depends on the teaming algorithm and may not use both links equally.

Active/Active teaming requires a port channel on the ToR switches to function correctly.

Active/Active teaming will cause a loop in the network if the ToR switches are not configured with spanning tree.

Active/Active teaming is not supported for vSAN traffic; only Active/Standby is allowed.

A large enterprise is deploying a VxRail cluster that spans two racks. They are using a leaf-spine architecture. What is the role of the spine switches in this topology?

Spine switches are used exclusively for management traffic, while ToR switches handle all data traffic.

Spine switches are the first-hop switches that VxRail nodes connect to directly, providing access to the rest of the network.

Spine switches are not required in a two-rack VxRail deployment; ToR switches can be directly connected to each other.

Spine switches provide the high-bandwidth backbone that interconnects all ToR (leaf) switches, enabling east-west traffic between racks.

Which cabling option is commonly used for 25GbE connections in a VxRail deployment?

Fiber optic cables with SFP+ transceivers

Direct attach copper (DAC) cables

What is the primary role of top-of-rack (ToR) switches in a VxRail cluster?

To provide out-of-band management access to the VxRail nodes

To provide the direct network connection point for the VxRail nodes in that rack

To route traffic between different data centers

To aggregate traffic from multiple racks and connect to the core network

Which network traffic type is typically carried over the vSAN network on a VxRail node?

Virtual machine traffic to the external network

iSCSI traffic to a storage array

Management traffic to the vCenter Server
