Exam NCP-MCI-6.10 Topic 3 Question 77 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-MCI-6.10 exam
Question #: 77
Topic #: 3
An administrator wants to ensure that user VMs on AHV hosts can take advantage of bandwidth available beyond a single adapter in a bond.
Which uplink Bond Type should the administrator configure?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Nutanix AHV networking supports multiple bond types that determine how traffic is distributed across physical NICs. The detailed guidance in the AHV networking section states:
"Active-Active bonding provides load distribution of outbound traffic across all interfaces in the bond, allowing aggregate throughput beyond a single physical adapter." Active-backup keeps only one NIC active at a time and provides no throughput gain. Active-Active with MAC pinning distributes VMs across NICs but does not aggregate the total throughput for a single VM and is typically used with switch-independent designs.
Because the requirement is to "take advantage of bandwidth beyond a single adapter," only the standard Active-Active bond type satisfies this, as it truly aggregates available bandwidth.
Therefore, the correct bond type is Active-Active.
