An architect has 50 ESXi hosts to deploy and DHCP servers are not allowed on any network.
Which automated host deployment method should the architect use?

Which automated host deployment method should the architect use?
The architect cannot use Stateful or Stateless vSphere Auto Deploy methods because both require DHCP, which is not allowed on any network. Interactive installation is not suitable as it is not automated for deploying 50 ESXi hosts. Scripted installation allows for automated and unattended deployment, making it the appropriate choice for this scenario.
C. Scripted installation vSphere Auto Deploy uses DHCP. Which leaves us with scripted or interactive. The question says "50 ESXi hosts to deploy", so obviously scripted is the answer.
Agree C. since An architect has 50 ESXi hosts. "Running a script is an efficient way to deploy multiple ESXi hosts" with an unattended installation. https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.esxi.install.doc/GUID-00224A32-C5C5-4713-969A-C50FF4DED8F8.html
Answer C is correct. There is no DHCP, so no Auto Deploy possible. And the interactive installation is not very automated... :-)
Auto Deploy requires DHCP. Additionally, Interactive installation obviously is not an automated method to deploy 50 ESXi. https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.esxi.install.doc/GUID-9D6D353D-B527-4C5F-B4AD-A1A719707139.html Auto Deploy require DHCP.
