Why each option
The ESXi 6.x interactive installation wizard requires the administrator to explicitly select a keyboard layout as a mandatory step before the installation proceeds.
The interactive ESXi installer presents a keyboard layout selection screen as a required wizard step - the installer will not advance without a selection being confirmed, making it the one piece of information that must be actively provided during setup.
An IP address is not collected during ESXi installation - the host defaults to DHCP and networking can be fully configured post-install via the Direct Console User Interface (DCUI).
While the installer prompts for a root password, it accepts a blank entry and allows installation to complete without one, meaning it is not strictly required input.
DNS information is an optional network setting that is not part of the installation wizard and can be configured after installation through DCUI or vSphere Client.
