2v0-2123 Exam - Question 96

Question

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.)

Examice · Accepted Answer

To complete the configuration of the management network on a VMware ESXi host, the administrator should set the VLAN ID to 10, configure at least two network adapters for fault tolerance, update the IPv4 configuration with a static IP address, and disable IPv6 to ensure only IPv4 is used on the management network. Configuring DNS settings, while useful, is not mandatory for accessing the host using the vSphere Host Client.

ABCE - dns is not mandatory

Ilmace86 · Answer

I'll go for E and not D because "The management network must use only IPv4 network protocols." and without DNS you can still access the host using the IP

AtifOnWire · Answer

No need to disable IPv6

rajVCIX · Answer

ABCG can be done in the DCUI of the ESXi host. Remember the question states "Which four high level task should the administrator complete in the DIRECT CONSOLE SURE INTERFACE in order to meet the requirements.

Answers D and F cannot be done in the DCUI of the ESXi host.
Answer E - IPv6 is not needed to meet the requirements and it stated it must use IPv4 protocol

rajVCIX · Answer

ABCG is correct and  can be done in the DCUI of the ESXi host. Remember the question states "Which four high level task should the administrator complete in the DIRECT CONSOLE USER INTERFACE in order to meet the requirements.

Answers D and F cannot be done in the DCUI of the ESXi host.
Answer E - IPv6 is not needed to meet the requirements and it stated it must use IPv4 protocol

Spock2023 · Answer

• vlan 10 (A)
• The management network must be fault tolerant. ( Two uplinks required) B
• DHCP: No (Use Static IP) C 
• The management network must use only IPv4 network protocols.(disable IPV6) E

kijken · Answer

I would say abce, work that needs to be done in local interface. Not external dns or something

guestionme · Answer

I'm choosing ABC with *G* and not E because answer C states "Update the VMware ESXi Management Network IPv4 configuration to use a static IPv4 address." We don't need to specifically disable IPv6 in this case because it already has an IPv4 address assigned (Answer E).

Pledian · Answer

The correct answers are A, C, E, and G.

Here are the steps to configure the management network on the ESXi host:

Set the value of the VMware ESXi Management Network VLAN ID to 10.
Configure at least two network adapters for the VMware ESXi Management Network.
Update the VMware ESXi Management Network IPv4 configuration to use a static IPv4 address.
Disable IPv6 for the VMware ESXi Management Network.
Update the VMware ESXi Management Network DNS configuration to use the corporate DNS servers for names resolution.

The other options are incorrect:

Vachs · Answer

You don't need to resolve your ESXi host name.

Pipiq_namornek · Answer

So E or G is correct for sure? Even the voting, I am G now...

magetrip · Answer

D. Create a DNS A Record for the VMware ESXi host on the corporate DNS servers. This is necessary but not performed through the DCUI; it's done on the DNS server.
E. Disable IPv6 for the VMware ESXi Management Network. While this meets the IPv4-only requirement, it isn't explicitly necessary since the focus is on IPv4 configuration.
F. Restore the original Management vSphere Standard Switch. This is not relevant to the configuration tasks outlined.
