An administrator is creating a new vSphere Distributed Switch that will be utilized with a specific vSphere Cluster. The cluster itself contains a mix of ESXi 5.x and 6.x Hosts. Which Distributed Swit

VDS 6.0.0 requires ESXi 6.0 or later; any ESXi 5.x hosts in the cluster would be unable to join a distributed switch at this version.

Distributed Switch version 5.0.0 is the baseline VDS version for the ESXi 5.x family and is compatible with all ESXi 5.x hosts including 5.0, ensuring every host in the mixed 5.x/6.x cluster can successfully connect to the switch.

VDS 5.1.0 requires ESXi 5.1 or later, so any ESXi 5.0 hosts present in the 5.x mix would be excluded from connecting to this switch version.

VDS 5.5.0 requires ESXi 5.5 or later and would prevent ESXi 5.0 and 5.1 hosts from being added to the distributed switch.
