Question

Options

• AConvert the switch from a vSphere Standard Switch to a vSphere Distributed Switch.
• BCreate a new portgroup for the virtual machine and enable traffic shaping.
• CApply traffic shaping to the other virtual machines in the same port group.

Explanation

A network bottleneck caused by a virtual machines with high outbound network activity can be relieved by creating a new portgroup for the virtual machine and enable traffic shaping. A traffic shaping policy is defined by average bandwidth, peak bandwidth, and burst size. You can establish a traffic shaping policy for each port group and each distributed port or distributed port ESXi shapes outbound network traffic on standard switches and inbound and outbound traffic on distributed switches. Traffic shaping restricts the network bandwidth available on a port, but can also be configured to allow bursts of traffic to flow through at higher speeds.
