An NSX administrator wants to create a Tier-0 Gateway to support equal cost multi-path (ECMP) routing. Which failover detection protocol must be used to meet this requirement?
The correct answer is B. Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD). BFD is a failover detection protocol that provides fast and reliable detection of link failures between two routing devices. BFD can be used with ECMP routing to monitor the health of the ECMP paths and trigger a route change in case of a failure. BFD is supported by both BGP…

Explanation
BFD is a failover detection protocol that provides fast and reliable detection of link failures between two routing devices. BFD can be used with ECMP routing to monitor the health of the ECMP paths and trigger a route change in case of a failure. BFD is supported by both BGP and OSPF routing protocols in NSX-T. BFD can also be configured with different timers to achieve different detection times.
