VxRail Deployment Planning

Which protocol must be enabled on the ToR switch to permit automated discovery of a VxRail node?

  • A Loudmouth
  • B VxLAN
  • C IPv4 multicast
  • D LLDP
  • E IPv6 multicast
Explanation

VxRail node autodiscovery uses VMware Loudmouth over IPv6 multicast on the internal management VLAN. The ToR switch ports connected to VxRail nodes must permit this multicast traffic. LLDP is used to identify physical node-to-switch connections, not to perform VxRail node autodiscovery.
