Question
A large financial institution is designing a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) solution. During the initial discovery meetings, the customer detailed the following requirements
- Management of the physical network environment is handled by an
outsourced team.
- The VMware Administration team cannot re-configure the physical
network.
- The environment is configured to use Link Aggregation.
How does the information provided impact the overall design?
Options
- ANIC teaming for Virtual Standard Switch (vSS) must be configured.
- BLACP fallback must be configured.
- CLink Aggregation cannot be used for Workload Domains.
- DLink Aggregation cannot be used in the Management Domain.

Explanation
VCF 9.0 design documentation specifies that LACP-based link aggregation between ESXi and ToR switches is supported only when LACP failback mode is configured, ensuring a link can pass traffic before LACP PDUs are received . Since the VMware team cannot change physical networking and aggregation is in place, the design must mandate LACP fallback to maintain compatibility and connectivity resilience. Other answers are incorrect because VCF supports link aggregation in both management and workload domains if properly configured.
