Task 10
An administrator will be deploying Flow Networking and needs to validate that the environment, specifically switch vs1, is appropriately configured. Only VPC traffic should be carried by the switch.
Four versions each of two possible commands have been placed in Desktop\Files\Network\flow.txt. Remove the hash mark (#) from the front of correct First command and correct Second command and save the file.
Only one hash mark should be removed from each section. Do not delete or copy lines, do not add additional lines. Any changes other than removing two hash marks (#) will result in no credit.
Also, SSH directly to any AHV node (not a CVM) in the cluster and from the command line display an overview of the Open vSwitch configuration. Copy and paste this to a new text file named Desktop\Files\Network\AHVswitch.txt.
Note: You will not be able to use the 192.168.5.0 network in this environment.
First command
#net.update_vpc_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs0
net.update_vpc_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs1
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs0
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs1
Second command
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_all_traffic=true
net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_vpc_traffic=true
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_all_traffic=false
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_vpc_traffic=false
Correct Answer:
First, you need to open the Prism Central CLI from the Windows Server 2019 workstation. You can do this by clicking on the Start menu and typing "Prism Central CLI". Then, you need to log in with the credentials provided to you.
Second, you need to run the two commands that I have already given you in Desktop\Files\Network\flow.txt.
These commands are:
net.update_vpc_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs1 net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_vpc_traffic=true These commands will update the virtual switch that carries the VPC traffic to vs1, and update the VPC east- west traffic configuration to allow only VPC traffic. You can verify that these commands have been executed successfully by running the command:
net.get_vpc_traffic_config
This command will show you the current settings of the virtual switch and the VPC east-west traffic configuration.
Third, you need to SSH directly to any AHV node (not a CVM) in the cluster and run the command:
ovs-vsctl show
This command will display an overview of the Open vSwitch configuration on the AHV node. You can copy and paste the output of this command to a new text file named Desktop\Files\Network\AHVswitch.txt.
You can use any SSH client such as PuTTY or Windows PowerShell to connect to the AHV node. You will need the IP address and the credentials of the AHV node, which you can find in Prism Element or Prism Central.
remove # from greens
On AHV execute:
sudo ovs-vsctl show
CVM access AHV access command
nutanix@NTNX-A-CVM:192.168.10.5:~$ ssh [email protected] "ovs-vsctl show" Open AHVswitch.txt and copy paste output
Task 15
Depending on the order you perform the exam items, the access information and credentials could change.
Please refer to the other item performed on Cluster B if you have problems accessing the cluster.
The infosec team has requested that audit logs for API Requests and replication capabilities be enabled for all clusters for the top 4 severity levels and pushed to their syslog system using highest reliability possible. They have requested no other logs to be included.
Syslog configuration:
Syslog Name: Corp_syslog
Syslop IP: 34.69.43.123
Port: 514
Ensure the cluster is configured to meet these requirements.
Correct Answer:
See the Explanation for step by step solution.
Explanation:
To configure the cluster to meet the requirements of the infosec team, you need to do the following steps:
Log in to Prism Central and go to Network > Syslog Servers > Configure Syslog Server. Enter Corp_syslog as the Server Name, 34.69.43.123 as the IP Address, and 514 as the Port. Select TCP as the Transport Protocol and enable RELP (Reliable Logging Protocol). This will create a syslog server with the highest reliability possible.
Click Edit against Data Sources and select Cluster B as the cluster. Select API Requests and Replication as the data sources and set the log level to CRITICAL for both of them. This will enable audit logs for API requests and replication capabilities for the top 4 severity levels (EMERGENCY, ALERT, CRITICAL, and ERROR) and push them to the syslog server. Click Save.
Repeat step 2 for any other clusters that you want to configure with the same requirements.
To configure the Nutanix clusters to enable audit logs for API Requests and replication capabilities, and push them to the syslog system with the highest reliability possible, you can follow these steps:
Log in to the Nutanix Prism web console using your administrator credentials.
Navigate to the "Settings" section or the configuration settings interface within Prism.
Locate the "Syslog Configuration" or "Logging" option and click on it.
Configure the syslog settings as follows:
Syslog Name: Enter "Corp_syslog" as the name for the syslog configuration.
Syslog IP: Set the IP address to "34.69.43.123", which is the IP address of the syslog system.
Port: Set the port to "514", which is the default port for syslog.
Enable the option for highest reliability or persistent logging, if available. This ensures that logs are sent reliably and not lost in case of network interruptions.
Save the syslog configuration.
Enable Audit Logs for API Requests:
In the Nutanix Prism web console, navigate to the "Cluster" section or the cluster management interface.
Select the desired cluster where you want to enable audit logs.
Locate the "Audit Configuration" or "Security Configuration" option and click on it.
Look for the settings related to audit logs and API requests. Enable the audit logging feature and select the top
4 severity levels to be logged.
Save the audit configuration.
Enable Audit Logs for Replication Capabilities:
In the Nutanix Prism web console, navigate to the "Cluster" section or the cluster management interface.
Select the desired cluster where you want to enable audit logs.
Locate the "Audit Configuration" or "Security Configuration" option and click on it.
Look for the settings related to audit logs and replication capabilities. Enable the audit logging feature and select the top 4 severity levels to be logged.
Save the audit configuration.
After completing these steps, the Nutanix clusters will be configured to enable audit logs for API Requests and replication capabilities. The logs will be sent to the specified syslog system with the highest reliability possible.

Due to new security requirements, an administrator has been tasked with updating the security settings for user accounts within Prism Element on Cluster 1.
An SSL Certificate Signing Request with Subject Alternative Name should be generated for submission to the security team's Certificate Authority with the following details:
countryName = US
stateOrProvinceName = North Carolina
localityName = Durham
organizationName = ACME
organizationalUnitName = Infrastructure
commonName = prism_element.ACME.org
emailAddress = [email protected]
Alternate names = cvm1.ACME.org, cvm2.ACME.org, cvm3.ACME.org
Encryption: RSA 2048, sha256
When the Certificate Signing Request is generated, place a copy of both the .cnf file and the .csr file on the desktop named 'prism_element_acme.cnf' and 'prism_element_acme.csr' Save a copy of the command(s) used for this scenario to a new file on the desktop named "Task 5.txt".
Note: You must copy and paste the command(s) and output from SSH to the "Task 5.txt" file to achieve all points available.
Correct Answer:
See the Explanation below for detailed answer.
Explanation:
Here is the step-by-step solution to generate the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) on Cluster 1.
This entire process is performed from an SSH session connected to a CVM (Controller VM) on Cluster 1.
1. Access Cluster 1 CVM
* From Prism Central, navigate to Hardware > Clusters and click on Cluster 1 to open its Prism Element (PE) interface.
* In the Cluster 1 PE, navigate to Hardware > CVMs to find the IP address of any CVM in the cluster.
* Use an SSH client (like PuTTY) to connect to the CVM's IP address.
* Log in with the admin user and password.
2. Create the Configuration File (.cnf)
To include the Subject Alternative Names (SANs), you must first create a configuration file.
* In the CVM's command line, create the .cnf file using a text editor:
vi prism_element_acme.cnf
* Press i to enter "Insert" mode.
* Paste the following text exactly into the editor:
Ini, TOML
[ req ]
default_bits = 2048
distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
req_extensions = v3_req
prompt = no
[ req_distinguished_name ]
C = US
ST = North Carolina
L = Durham
O = ACME
OU = Infrastructure
CN = prism_element.ACME.org
emailAddress = [email protected]
[ v3_req ]
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[ alt_names ]
DNS.1 = cvm1.ACME.org
DNS.2 = cvm2.ACME.org
DNS.3 = cvm3.ACME.org
* Press Esc to exit "Insert" mode, then type :wq and press Enter to save and quit vi.
3. Generate the CSR and Key
* Run the following openssl command. This command uses the .cnf file to generate the new CSR (.csr) and a corresponding private key (.key), applying the sha256 encryption as requested.
Bash
openssl req -new -nodes -out prism_element_acme.csr -keyout prism_element_acme.key -config prism_element_acme.cnf -sha256
* The command will output the following, confirming the key generation:
* Generating a 2048 bit RSA private key
* ...................+++++
* ..................................+++++
* writing new private key to 'prism_element_acme.key'
* -----
4. Save Files to the Desktop
You will now copy the contents of the generated files from the CVM to your desktop.
* For Task 5.txt (Commands and Output):
* Open a new Notepad file on the desktop.
* Copy and paste all the commands you ran in the SSH session and their full output (as shown in steps 2 and 3) into this file.
* Save the file on the desktop as Task 5.txt.
* For prism_element_acme.cnf:
* In the CVM SSH session, display the file's content:
cat prism_element_acme.cnf
* Copy the entire text output (starting from [ req ]).
* Open a new Notepad file on the desktop.
* Paste the content and save the file as prism_element_acme.cnf.
* For prism_element_acme.csr:
* In the CVM SSH session, display the file's content:
cat prism_element_acme.csr
* Copy the entire text output, including the -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST----- and ----- END CERTIFICATE REQUEST----- lines.
* Open a new C:\Users\admin\Desktop\Notepad file on the desktop.
* Paste the content and save the file as prism_element_acme.csr.
An administrator is working to create a VM using Nutanix V3 API calls with the following specifications.
VM specifications:
* vCPUs: 2
* Memory: 8Gb
* Disk Size: 50Gb
* Cluster: Cluster 1
* Network: default-net
* Branding must be disabled on the VM
The API call is failing, indicating an issue with the payload:
"": [
"'metadata' is a required property",
"'spec' is a required property"
],
"message": "Request could not be processed.",
"reason": "INVALID_REQUEST"
The body is saved in desktop\API_Create_VM.txt.
Correct any issues in the text file that would prevent it from creating the VM. Also ensure the VM will be created as specified and make sure it is saved for re-use using that filename.
Deploy the VM through the API.
Note: Do not power on the VM.
Correct Answer:
See the Explanation below for detailed answer.
Explanation:
Here is the step-by-step solution to correct the API payload and deploy the VM.
This task is performed using the REST API Explorer within Prism Central.
1. Get Required UUIDs
To create a VM, you first need the unique IDs (UUIDs) for the target cluster and network.
* From the Prism Central dashboard, click the question mark (?) icon in the top-right corner and select REST API Explorer.
* Find Cluster 1 UUID:
* In the API Explorer, search for and select the clusters/list (POST) endpoint.
* In the Body field, paste a simple filter: { "kind": "cluster" }
* Click Send.
* In the "Response" body, find the entry for Cluster 1 and copy its metadata.uuid value.
* Find default-net UUID:
* Search for and select the subnets/list (POST) endpoint.
* In the Body field, paste: { "kind": "subnet" }
* Click Send.
* In the "Response" body, find the entry where spec.name is default-net and copy its metadata.uuid value.
2. Correct the API Payload File
The error message "'metadata' is a required property" and "'spec' is a required property" indicates the JSON in the file is malformed and missing the required root-level objects. The file content also does not match the VM specifications.
* On the desktop, open API_Create_VM.txt in Notepad.
* Delete all existing text in the file (including the POST Call and Body: lines).
* Paste the following corrected and complete JSON payload into the file.
* Replace <UUID_for_Cluster_1> and <UUID_for_default-net> with the actual UUIDs you copied in the previous step.
JSON
{
"spec": {
"name": "API_VM_Task15",
"resources": {
"power_state": "OFF",
"num_sockets": 2,
"num_vcpus_per_socket": 1,
"memory_size_mib": 8192,
"disk_list": [
{
"disk_size_mib": 51200,
"device_properties": {
"device_type": "DISK"
}
}
],
"nic_list": [
{
"subnet_reference": {
"kind": "subnet",
"uuid": "<UUID_for_default-net>"
}
}
],
"guest_customization": {
"is_overridable": true,
"override_branding": true
}
},
"cluster_reference": {
"kind": "cluster",
"uuid": "<UUID_for_Cluster_1>"
}
},
"metadata": {
"kind": "vm"
}
}
* Save and close the API_Create_VM.txt file.
Correction Summary:
* JSON Structure: The original file was malformed. The new payload provides the required spec and metadata objects at the root level.
* vCPUs: Set to 2 sockets (2 vCPUs total).
* Memory: Set to 8192 MiB (8 GB).
* Disk: Set to 51200 MiB (50 GB) and removed the unneeded CDROM.
* Cluster/Network: Placeholders are added for the required UUIDs.
* Branding: guest_customization.override_branding: true is added to disable branding for the VM.
3. Deploy the VM via API
* Return to the REST API Explorer.
* Search for and select the vms (POST) endpoint (the one with the description "Create a new vm").
* Open the corrected API_Create_VM.txt file, copy its entire contents (which now includes your specific UUIDs).
* Paste the complete JSON payload into the Body field of the vms (POST) endpoint.
* Click Send.
The API will return a 202 Accepted response, and the VM will be created (and remain powered off) on Cluster 1.
