NS0-157 · Question #404
You acquired a new company that has the same private IP address range. What must be set up on the NetApp cluster to support the duplicate networks?
The correct answer is C. IPspaces. IPspaces allow a NetApp cluster to maintain separate, isolated IP routing domains so that duplicate private IP address ranges from different organizations can coexist without conflict.

Why each option
IPspaces allow a NetApp cluster to maintain separate, isolated IP routing domains so that duplicate private IP address ranges from different organizations can coexist without conflict.
VLANs provide Layer 2 segmentation but do not resolve overlapping IP address conflicts at the cluster networking layer.
Failover groups define which ports a LIF can migrate to during a failure event and have no role in separating duplicate IP address spaces.
IPspaces create distinct IP address namespaces within a single ONTAP cluster, each with its own routing table and LIFs, which is precisely the mechanism needed to host two networks sharing the same private IP address range without address conflicts.
DNS zones handle name-to-IP resolution and cannot isolate or separate overlapping IP address ranges at the network routing level.
