NS0-157 · Question #380

By default how many management ports are there per node?

The correct answer is A. One. Each NetApp cluster node has one dedicated management port by default, typically designated e0M, used exclusively for out-of-band node administration.

Why each option

Each NetApp cluster node has one dedicated management port by default, typically designated e0M, used exclusively for out-of-band node administration.

AOneCorrect

NetApp cluster nodes ship with a single dedicated management port (e0M on most platforms) by default, providing out-of-band access for SSH, HTTPS, and SNMP management traffic. This port is physically and logically separate from data ports and cluster interconnect interfaces, ensuring management access is isolated from data traffic.

BTwo

Two management ports per node is not the default; standard NetApp node hardware provisions only one dedicated management port, with additional ports serving data or cluster interconnect roles.

CThree

Three management ports per node does not match the default hardware design of NetApp nodes; only one management port is included out of the box.

DFour

Four management ports per node is incorrect; the default is a single management port, and the remaining onboard ports are designated for data or cluster interconnect use, not management.
