Which capability does a distributed virtual switch have?

Floating static routes are a routing feature typically found on physical routers or Layer 3 switches to provide redundancy, not a capability of a virtual switch.

A distributed virtual switch (DVS) centralizes network configuration and management for all virtual machines and VMkernel ports across multiple hosts in a datacenter. This ensures configuration consistency and simplifies network administration for a large virtualized environment, as changes are applied once at the DVS level and propagated to all associated hosts.

Distributed virtual switches operate at Layer 2 and handle traffic switching; they do not run dynamic routing protocols like OSPF or EIGRP, which are Layer 3 functions.

While virtual environments can utilize IPsec, a distributed virtual switch itself is not responsible for using advanced IPsec encryption algorithms; this is typically handled by guest OSes, VPN gateways, or specialized network devices.
