A functional requirement in a design requires management, IP-based storage, vMotion, and virtual machine traffic to be physically separated. Which option best fulfills the functional requirement?

The correct answer is D. Using a different virtual switch for each type of traffic and having the physical adapters use different physical. VLANs can be used to logically separate network traffic. Separate virtual switches will physically separate the traffic on the ESXi host, but using a single physical switch introduces a single point of failure. The best answer is D: Using different physical switches will allow…

Explanation

VLANs can be used to logically separate network traffic. Separate virtual switches will physically separate the traffic on the ESXi host, but using a single physical switch introduces a single point of failure. The best answer is D: Using different physical switches will allow for redundancy.
