Explanation

On the Citrix ADC SDX platform, multiple VPX instances run as separate virtual machines on a shared hardware appliance, meaning they share the underlying CPU processing power and physical network interfaces - the Management Service broker controls which VLANs and ports each instance can use on those shared NICs.

Why A (kernel) is wrong: Each VPX instance runs in its own isolated VM with its own dedicated kernel; kernel isolation is a fundamental design principle of the SDX multi-tenant architecture.

Why C (memory) is wrong: Memory is statically allocated per instance at provisioning time - each instance gets a dedicated, non-overlapping memory slice, which is why over-provisioning memory is not possible on SDX.

Memory tip: Think "SDX = Shared eXternals" - the things outside the VM (CPU cycles, physical ports) are shared, while everything inside the VM (kernel, RAM) stays private to each instance.
