At the initial release of the MX7000 for a daisy-chained configuration in a multi-chassis management group (MCM)m what is the maximum number of member chassis allowed, not counting the lead chassis?

Question

Options

• A9
• B10
• C16
• D20

• A
  88% (23)
• B
  8% (2)
• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

Option A (9) is correct because at the initial release of the Dell EMC MX7000, a daisy-chained MCM group supported a maximum of 9 member chassis in addition to the lead chassis, for a total of 10 chassis in the group.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B (10) is a common trap - 10 is the total chassis count (1 lead + 9 members), not the member-only count the question asks for.
• C (16) and D (20) exceed the initial release limit; larger scale support may have come in later firmware/software updates, but was not available at initial release.

Memory tip: Think "1 lead + 9 members = 10 total." The question specifically excludes the lead, so the answer is 9 - not 10. If you remember the total is 10, just subtract the 1 lead chassis to arrive at the correct member count.
