Which hypervisor services are provided by the Vmkernel Ports? (Choose Three)

• vSphere vMotion

• Management

• Network Address Translation

• Virtual Machine Traffic

• vSAN Data Replication

How does NIC Teaming Policy increases the network capacity of a virtual switch?

• Distributing the traffic between members and providing passive failover in case of adapter failure or network outage

• Enabling virtual switch to automatically set the NIC back to active if a failed physical NIC returns online

• Connecting multiple virtual switches to a single physical NIC on different hosts

• Disabling Trunking negotiation and PortFast mode for access interfaces and trunk interfaces

How does VMkernel detect and handle network failures?

( Choose Three)

• Monitoring the link status provided by the network adapter to detect cable pulls and physical switch power failures

• Performing beacon probing to detect upstream, non-directly connected physical switch or cable failures

• Notifying a physical switch if a failover event causes a virtual NIC’s traffic to be routed over a different physical NIC

• Monitoring the link status provided by the network adapter to detect configuration errors

• Blocking a physical switch port using the Spanning Tree Protocol for misconfigured VLAN membership

What are the characteristic features of a vSphere Distributed Switches? ( Choose Two)

• Provide Virtual Switch Configuration at the vCenter Level

• Couple the virtual and physical configuration to provide full automation

• Provide a new VLAN-backed portgroup that doesn’t require physical network configuration

• Enables you to attach up to 2000 hosts to the same distributed switch

Which networking feature used to prioritize different traffic types configured on the same switch and sharing the same physical adapter.

• Storage I/O Control

• Traffic Shaping

• Network I/O Control

• NIC Teaming

What are the NSX planes of operation? ( Choose three)

• Data

• Control

• Security

• Automation

• Management

What are the considerations for using control plane security? (Choose two)

• The control plane requires certificate based authentication

• The communication in control plane is encrypted using SSL

• The NSX controller cluster creates self-signed certificates for the controller nodes and ESXi hosts

• NSX Controller creates and installs self-signed certificates on each ESXi Host

What are the responsibilities of the vsfwd user world agent? (Choose Two)

• Gathers distributed firewall statistics and send them to NSX Manager

• Retrieves information from NSX Controller through the message bus agent

• Send Audit logs to NSX Manager

• Sends information about virtual machine network connectivity to NSX Controller

Which NSX component runs as virtual appliance on an ESXi Host? (Choose Two)

• NSX Manager

• vCenter Server

• DLR Control VM

• Distributed Logical Router

Which component pushes the logical switch and logical routing information to the controller nodes?

• NSX Manager

• vCenter Server

• vsfwd

• netcpa
