300-710 · Question #327

A network engineer is planning on deploying a Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Virtual appliance in transparent mode. Which two virtual environments support this configuration? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is D. KVM E. ESXi. For deploying a Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Virtual appliance in transparent mode, the supported virtual environments are primarily traditional hypervisors.

Why each option

For deploying a Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Virtual appliance in transparent mode, the supported virtual environments are primarily traditional hypervisors.

AOSI

OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) is a conceptual model for network communication, not a virtual environment or hypervisor.

BAWS

AWS (Amazon Web Services) supports FTDv, but transparent mode is generally not recommended or natively supported in public cloud environments like AWS VPCs due to their inherent routed network architectures. Routed mode is the standard deployment for FTDv in AWS.

CGCP

GCP (Google Cloud Platform) supports FTDv, but similar to AWS, transparent mode is typically not the recommended or practically feasible deployment due to the cloud's native networking constructs. Routed mode is the standard deployment for FTDv in GCP.

DKVMCorrect

KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a supported hypervisor for Cisco FTDv, and transparent mode deployment is fully functional within KVM environments.

EESXiCorrect

ESXi (VMware vSphere Hypervisor) is a widely supported hypervisor for Cisco FTDv, where transparent mode deployments are common and well-documented.

Concept tested: FTDv transparent mode supported hypervisors
