CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 98

A VLAN needs to be configured within a virtual environment for a new VM. Which of the following will ensure the VM receives a correct IP address?

Answer options

• A. A virtual router
• B. A host NIC
• C. AVPN
• D. A virtual switch
• E. A vNIC

Correct answer: E

The correct answer is E, as a virtual NIC (vNIC) is essential for the VM to connect to the network and receive an IP address. Options A, B, C, and D do not directly facilitate the VM's network connection for IP assignment in this context.
