Agencies need their own logical routers for departmental networks without buying a hardware router per department. Which NSX Data Center benefit matches that use case?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Each agency can have its own logical front desk without buying a new hardware router. That is Tier-1 per tenant on a shared Tier-0. It is not a VLAN pancake and not Horizon.
Full Explanation
Giving agencies their own logical routers without buying a hardware router per department maps to multi-tier logical routing: a Tier-1 per agency southbound to segments and a shared Tier-0 for provider handoff. NSX thereby multiplies tenant gateways in software while consolidating the physical edge for the city. One physical router purchase for every new agency network is the cost model NSX avoids. Flattening every agency onto a single VLAN with no routing collapses isolation and addressing boundaries. Replacing Tier-1 gateways with Horizon Connection Servers confuses EUC brokering with routing. Exam caveat: Tier-1 still typically connects northbound to Tier-0 for reachability outside its segments; skipping that design is a common exam trap. Operational check: deploy a Tier-1 for a pilot department, attach its segments, link it to the shared Tier-0, and verify inter-agency and north-south paths before cloning the pattern; standardize Tier-1 naming per department in civic IPAM. In municipal operations, record the chosen control and the rejected distractors in the change ticket so future on-call staff understand which failure modes would affect city services. Re-validate after the next maintenance window that the same design still holds for the current NSX build and the agency workloads that depend on it.
