VMware Cloud Management and Automation Fundamentals — Question 47

An administrator would like to enable a switch setting to restrict the network bandwidth that is available to ports, but the solution must also allow bursts of traffic to flow through at higher speeds.
Which vSphere Distributed Switch setting accomplishes this goal?

Answer options

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Traffic shaping, as it is specifically designed to control the bandwidth usage while allowing for burst traffic. Options A, C, and D do not relate to bandwidth restrictions or traffic management, as they pertain to redundancy, monitoring, and security features respectively.
