Which statement describes a characteristic of VMware SU-WAN Edge (VCL) clustering?

Question

Options

• AOne VCE cluster can be formed with both virtual and hardware at the same lime
• BA VCE cluster requires one dedicated interface for HA sync
• CVCF clusters member sync flow tables between themselves.
• DVCE cluster members should have unique IP addresses on its WAN interfaces

• A
  4% (1)
• B
  15% (4)
• C
  69% (18)
• D
  12% (3)

Explanation

C is correct because VMware SD-WAN Edge (VCE) cluster members actively synchronize their flow tables with each other. This stateful synchronization is the core feature that enables seamless traffic failover - if one cluster member fails, another can continue handling existing sessions without dropping connections, because it already has the flow state.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is incorrect because VCE clusters must be homogeneous - you cannot mix virtual and hardware Edges in the same cluster.
• B is incorrect because VCE clustering does not require a dedicated interface for HA sync; sync traffic uses existing interfaces.
• D is incorrect because cluster members on WAN interfaces share the same IP address (a cluster VIP), not unique ones - shared IP is what makes them appear as a single logical device to the upstream network.

Memory tip: Think of VCE clustering as a "hive mind" - the defining trait is that members share knowledge (flow tables) in real time, which is what makes stateful failover possible. If a question asks what makes clustering work, the answer is always the sync.
