350-601 Exam Dumps - Cisco CCNP Data Center Questions and Answers

The correct answer is D. file.

The NFSv4 (Network File System version 4) protocol is a file-level storage protocol, meaning it provides access to shared storage at the file system level rather than at the raw disk (block) level. In this model, clients interact with files and directories directly, using standard file operations such as open, read, write, and close. This aligns with the concept of NAS (Network Attached Storage), which NFS is a core part of in Cisco data center architectures.

Unlike block storage protocols such as iSCSI or Fibre Channel, which present storage as raw disk volumes that require a local file system to be created, NFS abstracts this complexity and allows multiple clients to access shared files concurrently. NFSv4 also introduces enhancements such as stateful operations, security improvements, and better locking mechanisms, making it suitable for enterprise environments.

Options A (block) and B (object) refer to different storage models, while C (inode) is an internal file system structure, not an access level. Therefore, NFSv4 operates at the file level, making D the correct answer.

The correct answer is D. From the exhibit, N5K-1 has interface Vlan100 in VRF WEB with IP 10.1.1.1/24 for Server 1’s gateway, and interface Vlan150 in VRF WEB with IP 192.168.1.1/30 toward N5K-2. On N5K-2, interface Vlan200 has IP 172.16.1.1/24 for Server 2’s gateway, and interface Vlan150 has IP 192.168.1.2/30 as the routed transit link back to N5K-1. The exhibit also shows that N5K-2 already has a static route pointing to Server 1’s host/subnet via 192.168.1.1, but N5K-1 only has a route for 172.16.1.0 that is not placed in VRF WEB. Because Server 1’s SVI belongs to VRF WEB, N5K-1 needs a route inside that same VRF toward Server 2’s subnet through 192.168.1.2. Without that VRF-specific route, traffic sourced from Server 1 cannot be forwarded correctly to Server 2. The other options do not solve the Layer 3 reachability problem between the two VRF-connected subnets.

The correct answer is C. standby supervisor.

From the exhibit, the command output clearly shows:

Module 6 SUP Yes disruptive Module Upgradable and later confirms:

Module 6 EPLD upgrade is successful and 6 SUP Success.

This indicates that the EPLD upgrade was performed on a Supervisor (SUP) module, specifically module 6. In Cisco MDS 9700 architecture, supervisor modules operate in a redundant pair (active and standby). When EPLD upgrades are performed, Cisco best practice and system behavior typically upgrade the standby supervisor first, because it allows the system to maintain control-plane continuity and minimizes disruption.

The output does not mention PSU, fan, or fabric modules, eliminating options A, B, and D. The explicit reference to SUP confirms that the upgrade applies to a supervisor module.

Thus, based on the module type shown in the output and standard Cisco upgrade behavior, the EPLD upgrade is applied to the standby supervisor, making C the correct answer.
