VMware vSphere 7.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2021) — Question 67

Which teaming and failover policy offers the lowest latency when a failover or a migration with vSphere vMotion occurs?

Answer options

• A. Network failure detection
• B. Fallback
• C. Notify switches
• D. Load balancing

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The 'Notify switches' policy minimizes latency during failover or vMotion by ensuring that network switches are promptly informed of any changes, allowing for faster reconnection. The other options, such as 'Network failure detection' and 'Fallback', may introduce delays as they rely on different mechanisms that do not prioritize immediate notification to switches. 'Load balancing' focuses on traffic distribution rather than failover efficiency.
