VMware vSphere 8.x Professional — Question 97

An administrator remotely deploys VMware ESXi using an out of band management connection and now needs to complete the configuration of the management network so that the host is ac-cessible through the vSphere Host Client.

The following information has been provided to complete the configuration:

• Host FQDN: esxi01.corp.local
• Management VLAN ID: 10
• DHCP: No
• Management IP Address: 172.16.10.101/24
• Management IP Gateway: 172.16.10.1
• Corporate DNS Servers: 172.16.10.5, 172.16.10.6
• DNS Domain: corp.local

In addition, all host configurations must also meet the following requirements:

• The management network must use only IPv4 network protocols.
• The management network must be fault tolerant.

Which four high level tasks should the administrator complete in the Direct Console User Inter-face (DCUI) in order to meet the requirements and successfully log into the vSphere Host Cli-ent? (Choose four.)

Answer options

• A. Set the value of the VMware ESXi Management Network VLAN ID to 10.
• B. Configure at least two network adapters for the VMware ESXi Management Network.
• C. Update the VMware ESXi Management Network IPv4 configuration to use a static IPv4 ad-dress.
• D. Create a DNS A Record for the VMware ESXi host on the corporate DNS servers.
• E. Disable IPv6 for the VMware ESXi Management Network.
• F. Restore the original Management vSphere Standard Switch.
• G. Update the VMware ESXi Management Network DNS configuration to use the corporate DNS servers for names resolution.

Correct answer: A, B, C, E

Explanation

The correct tasks involve setting the VLAN ID, configuring multiple network adapters for redundancy, using a static IPv4 address, and disabling IPv6 to comply with the requirement for an IPv4-only network. Options D, F, and G are not necessary to meet the outlined requirements for accessing the vSphere Host Client.
