CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 50

When configuring networking on a VM, which of the following methods would allow multiple VMs to share the same host IP address?

Answer options

• A. Bridged
• B. NAT
• C. Host only
• D. vSwitch

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, NAT, because it allows multiple VMs to share the host's IP address by translating their individual private IPs to the host's public IP. In contrast, Bridged (A) connects VMs directly to the network, making them appear as separate entities, while Host only (C) and vSwitch (D) do not provide shared IP addressing capabilities.
