An administrator has decided to create 10 ESXi 6.x hosts via Auto Deploy for a new Test/Dev cluster. The hosts are configured to obtain their networking configuration via DHCP. Which Direct Console Us

Restore Network Settings reverts the management network configuration to a previously saved state rather than renewing a DHCP lease, and on stateless Auto Deploy hosts there may be no saved state to restore.

Test Management Network performs ping and DNS resolution checks to validate existing connectivity; it does not restart the interface or trigger any DHCP renewal process.

Restart Management Network tears down and reinitializes the vmkernel management interface, which causes the host to re-issue a DHCP DISCOVER and obtain a fresh IP lease - the correct procedure for renewing DHCP on a stateless Auto Deploy host whose network settings are not persisted to disk.

Network Restore Options provides choices to roll back to a known-good configuration and is used for recovery scenarios, not for renewing an active DHCP lease.
