NEW QUESTION # 12
An administrator is deploying an NC2 cluster on AWS in the us-west-2 region. A VPC, management subnet, and a VM subnet are already created in the target region.
The management subnet has a local route and a route to the internet. The subnet has a route and a route to the NAT gateway. During the deployment, the management subnet appears in the drop-down list in the Create Cluster wizard, but cannot be selected.
What is the cause of this problem?
- A. The subnet has both an IPv4 CIDR block and an IPv6 CIDR block.
- B. The subnet does not have route to a Site-to-Site VPN connection through a virtual private gateway.
- C. The subnet has a direct route to an Internet gateway.
- D. The subnet has an IPv4 CIDR block but does not have an IPv6 CIDR block.
Answer: A
Explanation:
The Nutanix Create Cluster wizard may not support selecting subnets that have both IPv4 and IPv6 CIDR blocks due to compatibility or configuration constraints.
When a subnet with both CIDR blocks is present, it can cause issues in the selection process during cluster creation, as the system might not be able to properly handle or recognize the dual-stack configuration.
Ensuring that the management subnet has only an IPv4 CIDR block, without an IPv6 CIDR block, could resolve this issue and allow for successful selection in the cluster creation wizard.
Reference:
Refer to the Nutanix and AWS documentation on subnet configuration and requirements for NC2 cluster deployments, specifically addressing IPv4 and IPv6 compatibility and constraints.
