QuestionQ69

Plan the low-level design

A data center network currently uses another vendor’s top-of-rack switches to connect virtualization servers. The proposed design uses HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 switches at the ToR to implement micro-segmentation for VM traffic. Server migration from the current switches to CX 10000 switches will be phased, so not all servers move at the same time.

Select the answer that correctly completes the sentence.

Can segmentation be implemented to isolate Layer 2 communication between VMs located on servers connected to the current switches?
Explanation

Segmentation enforced by CX 10000 applies to workloads connected through the CX 10000 distributed-services architecture. VM traffic that stays within servers connected only to the existing switches does not traverse that enforcement point, so CX 10000 cannot isolate that Layer 2 communication.
