Practice question 138 of 440 · easy

In a non-central NAT deployment, a VIP is configured and selected in an inbound policy with NAT disabled. Is DNAT disabled by that policy setting?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.No; the VIP performs DNAT while the switch controls SNAT
  2. B.Yes; every VIP requires policy SNAT
  3. C.Yes; NAT disabled disables all translation globally
  4. D.No; the policy automatically enables a one-to-one pool
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • No; the VIP performs DNAT while the switch controls SNAT

The ordinary NAT switch governs source translation. A VIP can perform DNAT without SNAT, preserving client identity; no automatic pool or global switch behavior follows.
