Which of the following descriptions of VAS resource pooling deployment is correct in the CloudFabric solution?

Question

Options

• ACentralized VAS resource pools do not support active/standby deployments and are prone to
• BWhen a distributed VAS resource pool is deployed, a single point of failure is avoided because
• CA centralized VAS resource pool refers to the construction of an independent VAS resource pool
• DDistributed VAS resource pool refers to planning an independent VAS resource pool in each

• A
  10% (3)
• B
  3% (1)
• C
  81% (25)
• D
  6% (2)

Explanation

Option C correctly defines a centralized VAS resource pool as a single, independently constructed pool that serves the entire network or region, consolidating Value-Added Services (such as firewalls and load balancers) into one shared resource cluster rather than deploying them separately at each location. This centralized model simplifies management and enables resource sharing across multiple tenants or sites within the CloudFabric solution.

Option A is wrong because centralized VAS resource pools do support active/standby (high availability) deployments; claiming otherwise misrepresents the architecture's resilience capabilities. Option B is misleading because while distributed deployment can reduce certain failure risks, the reasoning given about how single points of failure are avoided is incorrect or incomplete as described. Option D describes distributed deployment as having an independent VAS resource pool at each location, which conflates "distributed" with "isolated per-site pools" in a way that does not accurately reflect the CloudFabric definition, or it incorrectly characterizes the scope of each pool.

Memory tip: Anchor "Centralized" to the image of one large shared pool at the network core serving everyone, versus "Distributed" meaning pools spread out across individual sites. The exam often tests whether you know that centralized means one unified pool, not multiple separate ones.
