What failure will beacon probing identify in vSphere networking?
A. An improper VLAN configuration on a physical switch port
B. A disconnected network cable
C. A VMkernel IP mismatch affecting vMotion or HA traffic
D. Jumbo frames improperly configured on an iSCSI target
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Any vSwitch will detect a cable pull on an uplink. The benefit of beacon probing is that it checks the downstream switches, this will highlight not only a cable pull, but an improper VLAN configuration as well
