2V0-622D Question #82: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is D: VMkernel of the iSCSI traffic must be bound to only one active network adapter.. iSCSI Software Adapter port binding requires each VMkernel port to map to exactly one active physical NIC so that iSCSI multipathing functions correctly.

Question
Which is required for configuring iSCSI Software Adapter network port binding?
Options
- AVMkernel of the iSCSI traffic must be load balanced using Route based on IP Hash algorithm.
- BVMkernel of the iSCSI traffic must be load balanced using Route based on Source Virtual Port ID
- CVMkernel of the iSCSI traffic must be load balanced using Route based on Source MAC Hash
- DVMkernel of the iSCSI traffic must be bound to only one active network adapter.
Explanation
iSCSI Software Adapter port binding requires each VMkernel port to map to exactly one active physical NIC so that iSCSI multipathing functions correctly.
Common mistakes.
- A. IP Hash load balancing requires multiple active uplinks per vSwitch port group, which violates the single active adapter requirement for iSCSI port binding and is explicitly unsupported in this configuration.
- B. Route based on Source Virtual Port ID is a standard vSwitch load balancing policy for general VM traffic and does not satisfy the iSCSI port binding requirement of one active adapter per VMkernel.
- C. Route based on Source MAC Hash is another general vSwitch policy that allows multiple active adapters and therefore does not meet the iSCSI port binding constraint of a single active uplink per VMkernel.
