Which three selections are capabilities of Network Topology? (Choose three.)

The NSX Network Topology feature provides a graphical representation of the logical network constructs and their relationships. It allows administrators to visualize the interconnection of NSX components like Tier-0 gateways, Tier-1 gateways, and segments. The view can be expanded to show the virtual machines (VMs) connected to specific segments, which is crucial for operational visibility. Furthermore, it displays the uplinks configured on Tier-0 gateways, illustrating the connectivity from the NSX logical environment to the external physical network.

C. Display how the Physical components are interconnected. The topology view shows the placement of logical components on physical nodes (hosts/edges) but does not map the interconnections between physical devices like switches or routers.
D. Display the uplinks configured on the Tier-1 Gateways. Tier-1 Gateways do not have uplinks to the physical network; they connect northbound to Tier-0 Gateways. The topology view shows this logical connection, not physical uplinks.

1. VMware NSX 4.1 Administration Guide

Section: "Network Topology".

The documentation states

"The network topology graph provides a visual representation of your NSX network. You can view Tier-0 gateways

Tier-1 gateways

and segments." (Supports option A).

It further specifies

"You can also view the VMs and containers that are connected to the segments." (Supports option B).

For Tier-0 gateways

it notes

"you can view the external interfaces that are configured on them." These external interfaces are the uplinks to the physical network. (Supports option E).

The guide does not mention displaying the interconnection between physical components

invalidating option C. It also clarifies that Tier-1 gateways connect to Tier-0 gateways

not physical uplinks

invalidating option D.
