Question 464 - 350-601 discussion

Refer to the exhibit. A Cisco data center environment is implemented with vPC. The web server replies using the SVI MAC address as the Layer 2 header instead of the HSRP MAC address on VLAN 23. This behavior causes packet drops on the Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches due to the vPC loop prevention mechanism. The requirement is for the vPC feature to allow N9K_1 and N9K_2 to forward traffic between the NAS server and the web server, even if the HSRP's MAC address is not used on Layer 2 headers for VLAN 23. Which feature must be used to accomplish this goal?

Peer Gateway

Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

The Peer Gateway feature on Cisco Nexus switches is designed to address the exact scenario described. When enabled, it allows the vPC peer switches to forward traffic based on the SVI MAC address, even if it is not the HSRP MAC address.This is particularly useful in cases where end devices do not use the HSRP virtual MAC address for the gateway and instead use the physical MAC address of one of the HSRP routers1.By using the Peer Gateway feature, both N9K_1 and N9K_2 will be able to forward traffic for VLAN 23, ensuring that the packets are not dropped due to the vPC loop prevention mechanism123.
