Refer to the exhibit.

What is true about the network uplink ports?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

In Nutanix, all the network uplink ports are connected, but only two of them are carrying traffic at any given time. This is done to provide redundancy and failover in case one of the ports fails. The two ports that are carrying traffic are chosen based on the link aggregation policy configured. The link aggregation policy can be configured to use either Active-Active or Active-Backup mode. In Active-Active mode, both ports are active and carrying traffic, while in Active-Backup mode, only one port is active and carrying traffic, the other port is on standby.

Haha, I bet the IT guy who set this up was just messing with us. 'Let's make it as confusing as possible, that'll really stump 'em!'

This is making my head spin. Why would they have one port at 1GbE and the other at 10GbE? That just seems like a recipe for disaster.

Maybe there's a specific reason for the setup that we're not aware of.

I agree, it seems like it could cause issues if not properly managed.

Why do you think having different speeds for the uplink ports is a bad idea?

Wait, is this a trick question? I'm pretty sure they're in Active-Active mode, not Active-Backup. Gotta be option D.

I think the correct answer is C. All the ports are connected, but only two are carrying traffic. That's the most logical explanation for the setup.

I agree with you, it does make sense that only two ports are carrying traffic.

I believe it's actually D. They are configured in Active-Active mode.

The network uplink ports are definitely in Active-Backup mode. That's the only way it makes sense with one being 1GbE and the other 10GbE.
