Nutanix NCP-CI-Azure Exam - Topic 3 Question 16 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-CI-Azure exam
Question #: 16
Topic #: 3
[All NCP-CI-Azure Questions]

An administrator is planning on building the network prior to deploying a Nutanix cluster into Azure.

Which two components require their own vNets for NC2 in Azure? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, B

NC2 on Azure Deployment: Deploying Nutanix clusters in Azure involves configuring various components, each needing appropriate network isolation and configuration.

Components and vNets:

Bare-metal instance: Requires its own vNet to ensure proper network isolation and performance.

Prism Central: Needs a dedicated vNet to manage and monitor the Nutanix environment, ensuring it has the required network access and isolation.

Azure Load Balancer: Does not require its own vNet but needs to be associated with the appropriate vNet where services are deployed.

Virtual Network Gateway: Is used for VPN connections but does not necessitate a separate vNet; it operates within an existing vNet.

Network Isolation: Providing separate vNets for Bare-metal instances and Prism Central ensures optimal performance and management capabilities.

Conclusion: Both Bare-metal instances and Prism Central require their own vNets in the NC2 on Azure deployment.

I thought the Virtual Network Gateway was also required.

Wait, does the Azure Load Balancer not need a vNet?

I'm a bit confused; I thought the Virtual Network Gateway was more about connecting to on-premises networks rather than needing a separate vNet for NC2.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I think both Prism Central and the Azure Load Balancer were mentioned as needing their own vNets.

I remember something about bare-metal instances needing separate vNets, but I can't recall if the Virtual Network Gateway is also one of them.

I think Prism Central definitely needs its own vNet, but I'm not sure about the second one. Maybe the Azure Load Balancer?

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. The key is to identify the core Nutanix components that need to be isolated for proper networking and security. Prism Central and the bare-metal instance seem like the obvious choices.

Okay, I've got a strategy here. Prism Central is the management component, so that would definitely need its own virtual network. And the bare-metal instance is the actual compute node, so that's another one. I'll go with those two.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Does "NC2" refer to a specific Nutanix cluster configuration? I'll need to review the Nutanix Azure deployment documentation to make sure I understand the components.

Hmm, this seems straightforward. I'll need to think about the components that make up a Nutanix cluster in Azure and which ones would require their own virtual networks.

I'm not sure about Prism Central, but I think Azure Load Balancer definitely needs its own vNet for better control over network traffic.

Prism Central and Virtual Network Gateway, definitely. I mean, you need to keep those separate for security and all that jazz.

I agree with James. Prism Central and Azure Load Balancer make sense to have their own vNets for better network segmentation and security.

I think the components that require their own vNets for NC2 in Azure are Prism Central and Azure Load Balancer.
