QuestionQ38

Design VMware-based Infrastructure Solutions

A company uses VMware NSX for its virtualization environment. You are proposing ArubaOS-CX switches to provide network connectivity for the solution.

What must be considered when designing the ArubsOS-CX switch settings?

Explanation

VMware NSX encapsulates overlay traffic across the physical transport network, adding packet overhead. The ArubaOS-CX interfaces that carry NSX transport traffic must use compatible jumbo-frame MTU settings so encapsulated packets are not dropped or fragmented. NSX overlay subnets and virtual network IDs are independent of the physical underlay’s routing interfaces and VLAN IDs.
