VMware NSX 4.x Professional (2024) — Question 65

Which table on an ESXi host is used to determine the location of a particular workload for a frame-forwarding decision?

Answer options

• A. Routing Table
• B. ARP Table
• C. TEP Table
• D. MAC Table

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The MAC Table is essential for mapping MAC addresses to their corresponding ports, allowing the ESXi host to forward frames to the correct destination. The Routing Table is used for determining the best paths for IP traffic, the ARP Table maps IP addresses to MAC addresses, and the TEP Table is related to tunneling but does not directly influence frame-forwarding decisions.
