Nutanix Exam NCM-MCI-5.15 Topic 6 Question 76 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCM-MCI-5.15 exam
Question #: 76
Topic #: 6
[All NCM-MCI-5.15 Questions]

An administrator is planning to deploy a Nutanix cluster to support a few high-performance VMs. This deployment will have the following considerations:

* Individual VMs will likely generate network throughputs in the range of 90-100Mbps

* Due to the configuration of the VMs, it is unlikely that a node will host more than one or two of them at a time

* Individual VMs will communicate with only a few (one or two) remote hosts at a time

* Multicast will not be used in the environment

* The hosts are connected via two 1GbE network connections

How should the administrator configure the network bonds to meet this requirement while maintaining the simplest switch configuration?

That's a valid point, active-backup could simplify the switch configuration while still providing some level of redundancy.

I disagree, I believe configuring bond0 as active-backup would be simpler and still meet the requirements.

Well, based on the network throughputs and the communication pattern of the VMs, balance-tcp would provide optimal performance.
