Apply a PBR rule for the VM's address forwarding traffic to the IP of the No-NAT external Gateway address

Apply a default route to the VPC sending all traffic to the NAT External Network

Associate a NAT external network to the VPC and apply a floating IP address to the VM

17. How can the administrator discover the root cause of the issue?

Confirm that Inter-VM connectivity is enabled within the VM networking settings and that VMs in the Database tier are configured correctly to accept inbound traffic.

Check if traffic isolation has been configured on the Database tier and ensure that there is no policy preventing App tier communication with the Database tier.

Check the security policies again to ensure that the rule allowing port 3306 from Web -> Database is applied and active, then check the policy enforcement mode to ensure it is in Enforcement Mode.

Verify that the port 3306 is open on the external gateway and that SNAT is not being applied for internal communication.

Which two statements most accurately describe the security hitlog captured above? (Choose two.)

This is a security hit log on the rule name "Production-External-WebTier".

The source ip address is 10.38.174.5 and source port is TCP/123.

86.108.190.23 is sending a packet on UDP 123.

10.38.174.57 is sending a packet destined to UDP 123.

22. An administrator creates an Isolation Policy in Prism Central to prevent communication between the Prod and Staging environments.

The policy is in Enforce mode... but VMs in the two environments can still communicate.

Which configuration issue most likely explains why the Isolation Policy is not blocking the traffic?

The Isolation Policy does not specify any services/ports, so no traffic is matched for enforcement.

Isolation Policies restrict north-south communication when associated with a VPC gateway, not east-west traffic between categories.

An Application Policy allows traffic between the same categories, overriding this policy.

The Prod and Staging categories have not been assigned to the VMs, so the policy does not apply.

The App tier communicates with the Database tier over TCP port 1433

The Database tier does not initiate connections

The Web tier receives inbound HTTP traffic from the corporate DMZ on port 8080 No other traffic should be allowed

What should the administrator do to document and then securely apply these flows in Nutanix Flow?

Use Flow Network Visualization to capture observed flows and convert them into microsegmentation security policies.

Add all VMs to a single security policy to simplify communication.

Disable traffic-flow discovery and configure all policies manually.

31. An administrator is tasked with configuring an application policy for a two-tier public website with Web and DB components. The database servers need to communicate with each other for replication, but the web servers should not be able to communicate with each other. The administrator configures the policy... and sets it to Enforce mode.





Later testing reveals that the web servers are able to communicate with each other.

What should the administrator do to resolve this?

Create an isolation policy for the PubSite-Prod-Web entity group.

Edit the PubSite-Prod-Web entity group's intra-tier rule.

Configure a VPC Network Policy to deny the traffic.

Add Cat:SubnetA and Cat:VM1 as secured entity in the Application Policy.

34. An administrator finds that App tier VMs cannot connect to the Database tier on port 3306, and Flow logs show the traffic is being denied by a security policy. The Web tier communicates normally.

What should the administrator do to allow the App tier to access the Database tier?

Update the microsegmentation policy in Nutanix Flow to allow App -> Database traffic on port 3306.

Delete all existing Flow policies and recreate them from scratch.

Enable NAT for the Database tier to allow connections from the App tier.

Change the Database tier subnet to match the App tier subnet.

35. An administrator has deployed a microsegmentation policy in Nutanix Flow that allows certain VM traffic based on Active Directory (AD) user group membership.

Users in a specific AD group report they are unable to access the VMs, while other users can connect without issues. The administrator suspects the problem is related to identity-based policy mapping.

What should the administrator do to troubleshoot and resolve the access issue related to the identity-based policy?

Add the IP addresses of the blocked VMs to the Inbound ruleset.

Ensure the VMs are associated to the proper AD group categories.

Reboot all VMs associated with the policy to refresh their security group mapping.
