Question 11
A cloud administrator wants to deploy a VMware Cloud software-defined data center (SDDC) on a
cloud provider and requires a consistent 4.5 Gbps bandwidth from applications to communicate from
on-premises to the SDDC. Which type of connection should be used for this type of traffic?
- A. Policy-based virtual private network (VPN)
- B. Private L2 virtual private network (VPN)
- C. Route-based virtual private network (VPN)
- D. Private line
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The best option for a cloud administrator who wants to deploy a VMware Cloud software-defined
data center (SDDC) on a cloud provider and requires a consistent 4.5 Gbps bandwidth from
applications to communicate from on-premises to the SDDC is a Route-Based Virtual Private Network
(VPN). This type of connection offers enhanced performance
[1][2]
, flexibility, scalability, and security
compared to other options, such as Policy-Based Virtual Private Network (VPN), Private L2 Virtual
Private Network (VPN), or Private Line.
According to the VMware official site, "Route-based VPN enables a secure connection between two
or more sites, or between a site and a mobile user, and provides better performance and scalability
than a policy-based VPN. Route-based VPNs are also more secure than policy-based VPNs, because
the traffic is encrypted with a unique encryption key for each tunnel, rather than relying on a shared
key for all tunnels. This allows for secure and reliable connections for devices and applications
located in different physical locations." [1]
