VMware vSphere 7.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2021) — Question 96

An administrator decides to implement vSphere networking using the VDS.
Which binding option should the administrator use to manage the VMs if vCenter becomes unavailable?

Answer options

• A. static
• B. port
• C. ephemeral
• D. dynamic

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, ephemeral, as it allows VMs to maintain their network connections even if vCenter becomes unavailable. Static and dynamic bindings require vCenter for network management, while port binding can also be affected by the unavailability of vCenter, making them unsuitable in this scenario.
