Full set: 246 questions
Answer options
A: VMM domain profile Correct answer
B: EPG static port binding
C: Layer 3 outside interface association
D: IP address pool association
E: EPG association Correct answer
Correct Answer:
A. VMM domain profile; E. EPG association
Explanation

A Cisco ACI Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) domain policy requires a VMM domain profile, which defines the connection parameters to the hypervisor manager (e.g., VMware vCenter). To make the VMM domain functional and provision network resources (such as creating port groups on a distributed virtual switch), the VMM domain must be associated with an Endpoint Group (EPG).

Why Incorrect

B. Static port bindings are used for physical bare-metal servers or unmanaged switches, not for dynamic VMM integration.
C. Layer 3 outside (L3Out) interfaces are used for external routing connectivity, not for VMM domain policy configuration.
D. IP address pool association is typically used for L4-L7 services or specific fabric configurations, not as a core requirement for basic VMM domain EPG association.
