What are two functions of the LAN Blade in the VSP Midrange family? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• AIt provides the LAN connection to the file module.
• BIt provides the maintenance port connecting to the MPC.
• CIt provides the iSCSI connection to the servers.
• DIt provides the management port connecting to the customer LAN.

• B

• C

Explanation

In the VSP Midrange family, the LAN Blade serves two distinct purposes: it provides the LAN connection to the file module (A), enabling NAS functionality, and it provides the management port that connects the system to the customer's LAN (D) for administrative access and monitoring.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B is incorrect because the maintenance port connecting to the MPC (Maintenance Personal Computer) is a separate function not handled by the LAN Blade - the MPC uses a dedicated service port.
• C is incorrect because iSCSI host connectivity is handled by dedicated iSCSI ports or host interface modules, not the LAN Blade.

Memory tip: Think "LAN Blade = LAN things" - it handles the two LAN-facing roles: connecting inward to the file module (NAS traffic) and connecting outward to the customer's management network. If the choice mentions iSCSI or maintenance/MPC ports, those belong to other dedicated components.
