VMware vSphere 7.x Professional for Service Providers — Question 44

An administrator wants to ensure the VMs for two different departments are separated on a single broadcast domain.
Which configuration fulfills this requirement?

Answer options

• A. PVLAN on VMkernel Interface
• B. PVLAN on VDS
• C. PVLAN on Uplink Port
• D. PVLAN on VSS

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as configuring a Private VLAN (PVLAN) on a Virtual Distributed Switch (VDS) allows for the necessary separation of VMs while still being part of the same broadcast domain. The other options, such as PVLAN on VMkernel Interface, Uplink Port, or Virtual Standard Switch (VSS), do not provide the same level of isolation and management capabilities needed for this scenario.
