2V0-21.23 Question 243
Single answerA VMware administrator is configuring network stacks in a vSphere 8.0 environment. The administrator needs to ensure that vMotion traffic is isolated and uses a specific network stack to take advantage of a dedicated routing table. Which network stack should the administrator configure to meet this requirement?
- A
Default TCP/IP Stack
- B
vMotion TCP/IP Stack
- C
Provisioning TCP/IP Stack
- D
Custom TCP/IP Stack
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The vMotion TCP/IP Stack is specifically designed to isolate vMotion traffic, providing its own dedicated routing table and ensuring optimal performance and security. Using this stack allows the administrator to meet the requirement of isolating vMotion traffic while leveraging VMware's best practices for network configuration in a vSphere environment.
- A. Incorrect.
The Default TCP/IP Stack is used for general-purpose networking and does not isolate vMotion traffic with a dedicated routing table.
- B. Correct.
The vMotion TCP/IP Stack is specifically designed for isolating vMotion traffic and provides a dedicated routing table, making it the correct choice.
- C. Incorrect.
The Provisioning TCP/IP Stack is used for management tasks like cloning and cold migration and is not suitable for isolating vMotion traffic.
- D. Incorrect.
A Custom TCP/IP Stack can be created for specific use cases, but it is unnecessary in this scenario as the vMotion TCP/IP Stack already addresses the requirement.
