A FlexPod design uses two Nexus 9000 switches as a vPC pair. The compute nodes are dual-homed to both switches. What is the purpose of configuring vPC on these switches?

To allow the two switches to appear as a single logical switch to the compute nodes

To enable routing between the two switches

To enable the switches to share the same configuration

To provide a single management IP address for both switches

A FlexPod environment uses Fibre Channel (FC) for storage connectivity. The compute nodes have FC adapters, and the storage array has FC ports. Which Cisco switch model is most appropriate to provide FC connectivity in this FlexPod design?

Cisco MDS 9000 series Fibre Channel switch

Cisco Nexus 9000 series with FC/FCoE support

Cisco Catalyst 9500 switch with FC ports

Cisco Nexus 3000 series with FC ports

A FlexPod environment uses FCoE to connect compute nodes to the storage network. The compute nodes have FCoE-capable adapters, and the storage array supports FCoE. Which Cisco switch configuration is required to support FCoE?

Configure the Nexus switches in FC mode only

Enable FCoE on the Nexus switches and configure VSANs and VLANs

Use MDS switches with FC ports and connect them to the compute nodes

Use a separate FC switch for FCoE traffic

Which technology is used in FlexPod to provide redundancy and high availability by allowing multiple physical links to act as a single logical link?

Network Address Translation (NAT)

A FlexPod design uses Cisco UCS servers with VIC adapters. The customer wants to run both data and storage traffic over the same physical adapter but with separate virtual interfaces. What is the recommended way to achieve this?

Use a single vNIC and rely on QoS to separate traffic

Create separate VLANs on the same vNIC

Use separate physical adapters for data and storage

Create separate vNICs for data and storage, each with its own VLAN
