Explanation
Implementing a dedicated management network for the hypervisor is a critical security measure in virtual environments. This network separation ensures that the management interface and communication with the hypervisor are isolated from the production network. It reduces the attack surface and the risk of unauthorized access to the hypervisor, making it more difficult for attackers to compromise the virtualization infrastructure.
