Question

Which benefit does a VSAN provide?

Options

  • Arouting protocols in the fabric
  • Blimit to unicast traffic
  • Cisolation among devices that connect to the same fabric
  • Denforcement for membership at the source ports and the destination ports

Explanation

VSANs provide logical segmentation of a Fibre Channel fabric, isolating devices within their assigned VSAN even when they share the same physical infrastructure.

Common mistakes.

  • A. VSANs are a fabric virtualization and segmentation mechanism, not a routing protocol solution; inter-VSAN routing (IVR) is a separate optional feature.
  • B. VSANs do not restrict traffic to unicast; they isolate traffic by logical membership regardless of the traffic type.
  • D. VSAN membership is enforced at the virtual fabric level via VSAN IDs assigned to ports, not as a distinct enforcement mechanism operating independently at both source and destination ports.
