QuestionQ13

Infrastructure Configuration and Management

A consultant is reviewing a customer's Pre-delivery Questionnaire.

The customer wants to deploy their cluster using ESXi as the hypervisor with vSphere Distributed Switch. The customer will use Cisco Nexus 9k as their switch choice. During the kick-off call, it is confirmed that the customer has a business requirement to use LACP in their environment.

What should the consultant ensure the customer configures on the port-channel interface before deployment?

  • A service unsupported-transceiver
  • B show port-channel
  • C no lacp graceful-convergence
  • D no lacp suspend-individual
Explanation

Cisco Nexus 9000 switches suspend an individual LACP port-channel member by default when it does not receive LACP PDUs. Configuring no lacp suspend-individual on the host-facing port-channel disables that behavior, allowing the ESXi/vSphere Distributed Switch LACP connection to come up as required.
