Question 1

Click the Exhibit button.

A customer wants to replace their ONTAP cluster CN1610 switches with Cisco Nexus 3132Q-V switches. They want to perform a non-disruptive upgrade.

Referring to the exhibit, which cable will be required to non-disruptively migrate to the new switches?

    Correct Answer: D

    Given that the NetApp CN1610 operates at 10GbE with SFP+ ports and the Cisco Nexus 3132Q-V operates at 40GbE with QSFP+ ports, the appropriate cable to enable a non-disruptive upgrade would be a 40GbE QSFP+ to 4x10GbE SFP+ cable. This is because the Nexus switch can use a breakout cable to split a 40GbE port into four 10GbE ports, which is necessary for compatibility with the 10GbE SFP+ ports of the CN1610. Therefore, the correct answer is a 40GbE QSFP+ to 4x10GbE SFP+ cable.

RaysonWOption: D

Cisco Nexus 3132-QV is 40Gb with QSFP+ ports. The NetApp CN1610 is 10Gb with SFP+ ports. This means that the NetApp storage connecting CN1610 shall be using 10Gb SFP+. So, to replace the CN1610, answer D is correct and the only choice in this question.
