CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 239

When configuring a VM, which of the following devices MOST likely needs to be configured to allow the VM access to other client VMs on the same host?

Answer options

• A. Virtual switch
• B. Host
• C. Hypervisor
• D. Workstation NIC

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as a Virtual switch connects multiple virtual machines, enabling them to communicate with each other on the same host. The Host refers to the physical machine running the VMs, while the Hypervisor is the software layer that manages the VMs, and the Workstation NIC is related to physical network connectivity rather than virtual machine networking.
