Options
- AThe MAC addresses are indistinguishable; the hypervisor stacks all the addresses on a single
- BThe hypervisor translates only TCP/IP addresses from the virtual machines to MAC addresses.
- CThe MAC addresses are not used for ingress/egress filtering; the architect must use TCP/IP.
- DThe virtual machines are not allowed to access the hardware-based MAC address directly.
