Question 4

An administrator of a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud has microsegmentation enabled and a firewall VM installed. The security team notifies the administrator that one of the VMs hosted in the environment has been exhibiting suspect network activity. The administrator wants to isolate the VM from the production network, but must still be able to access it to perform diagnostics.

What should the administrator do to meet the requirement?

    Correct Answer: C

    To meet the requirement of isolating the VM from the production network while still allowing for diagnostic access, the administrator should create a firewall rule that blocks VM traffic but permits diagnostic access. This allows the administrator to restrict all unnecessary network activity while still being able to perform diagnostics on the VM, ensuring that potential security threats are mitigated without losing the ability to troubleshoot and resolve the issue.
