NCP-AIN Exam Dumps - NVIDIA-Certified Professional AI Networking

In Cumulus Linux, microbursts are short-lived, high-volume traffic bursts that often go undetected by coarse-grained monitoring like SNMP.

The two tools specifically used for this purpose are:

What Just Happened (WJH)

"WJH provides real-time packet drop visibility and classifies drops by reason (e.g., congestion, ACLs, etc.), enabling microburst detection."

ASIC monitoring at millisecond granularity

"Deep telemetry is enabled via the switch ASIC, which provides sub-second counters that capture microburst patterns otherwise missed by SNMP."

Incorrect Options:

AandCprovide low-frequency sampling, insufficient for microbursts which last milliseconds.

AnInfiniBand (IB) Routerconnects two or moreInfiniBand subnets, making it possible for nodes in different subnets to communicate throughroute-managed communication.

From the officialNVIDIA InfiniBand Routers Documentation:

"An InfiniBand router provides connectivity between two or more InfiniBand subnets, enabling communication between hosts that are not on the same subnet while preserving isolation and scalability."

Ensures fabric scalability by allowing subnet segmentation.

Uses LID routing across subnet managers (SMs).

Essential in large clusters with thousands of nodes.

Incorrect Options:

AandBare incorrect: InfiniBand does not connect directly to Ethernet or SANs without a gateway.

Cis unrelated: NVLink is a GPU interconnect, not tied to InfiniBand routers.

NVIDIA's What Just Happened (WJH) is a feature that provides real-time visibility into network problems by analyzing all packets passing through the switch and alerting on performance issues caused by packet drops, congestion, high latency, or misconfigurations.

WJH retains the last packets that were dropped from the switch with complete packet headers and the actual drop reason. This enhances the ability to debug network problems, identify affected flows, and decrease time-to-repair.

For optimal performance in multi-node, multi-GPU AI workloads:

NVLinkprovides high-speed, low-latency communication between GPUs within the same node.

InfiniBandoffers efficient, scalable communication between nodes in a data center.Combining these technologies ensures both intra-node and inter-node communication needs are effectively met.​

TheNVIDIA UFM Cyber-AI Platformis specifically designed to enhance security and operational efficiency in InfiniBand data centers. It leverages AI-powered analytics to detect security threats, operational anomalies, and predict potential network failures. By analyzing real-time telemetry data, it identifies abnormal behaviors and performance degradation, enabling proactive maintenance and threat mitigation.​

This platform integrates with existing UFM Enterprise and Telemetry services to provide a comprehensive view of the network's health and security posture. It utilizes machine learning algorithms to establish baselines for normal operations and detect deviations that may indicate security breaches or hardware issues.​
