CV0-003 · Question #149

Which of the following describes a host server that is configured to bridge four guest servers?

The correct answer is B. A host server that has four virtual Ethernet adapters dedicated to each guest server to. Bridging four guest servers means the host creates a dedicated virtual Ethernet adapter for each guest, allowing each VM to communicate through the host's physical network via software bridging.

Why each option

Bridging four guest servers means the host creates a dedicated virtual Ethernet adapter for each guest, allowing each VM to communicate through the host's physical network via software bridging.

AA host server that has one physical Ethernet adapter that is used to allow guests to communicate

One shared physical adapter without dedicated virtual adapters per guest is a NAT or shared network topology, not a bridge configuration for each individual guest.

BA host server that has four virtual Ethernet adapters dedicated to each guest server toCorrect

A bridged network configuration assigns a virtual Ethernet adapter to each guest VM, with the host's networking stack acting as a bridge between those virtual adapters and the physical NIC. Dedicating one virtual adapter per guest ensures each of the four guest servers has its own isolated network path through the host.

CA host server that has one physical Ethernet adapter that is configured as a standby

A standby adapter configuration is a high-availability or failover construct, not a bridging arrangement for guest communication.

DA guest server that has four virtual Ethernet adapters that are used to allow guests to

This describes a guest server holding the virtual adapters rather than the host server performing the bridging function, which inverts the correct architecture.
