Nutanix Updated NCP-MCI-6.5 Exam Questions and Answers by karson

"An administrator has been tasked with increasing security on Nutanix cluster by disabling password authentication when accessing the CVM and AHV hosts and instead moving to key-based SSH, What is the easiest way for the administrator to meet these needs? Enable Cluster Lockdown and provide an RSA key."

 Cluster Lockdown mode disables password authentication when accessing the CVM and AHV hosts and instead requires key-based SSH. To enable Cluster Lockdown mode, you need to provide an RSA key.

Therefore, by enabling Cluster Lockdown mode and providing an RSA key, you can increase security on Nutanix cluster by disabling password authentication when accessing the CVM and AHV hosts and instead moving to key-based SSH with minimal effort.

The task that needs to be performed when time is not synchronizing properly after deploying a cluster is NTP configuration. In the Nutanix Multicloud Infrastructure (NCP-MCI) 6.5, Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize the system time across all the nodes in a cluster. If the time is not synchronizing properly, it indicates that there might be an issue with the NTP configuration. Therefore, checking and correcting the NTP configuration would be the appropriate action to resolve this issue. The other options like DNS configuration, HA configuration, and SMTP configuration are not directly related to time synchronization in a cluster.
