-- Exhibit —
An administrator determines that traffic shaping does not appear to be working on Production, a virtual machine port group on vSwitch1. Traffic shaping is working on all other port groups on the switch.
The administrator examines the Traffic Shaping settings as shown in the exhibit:
What should the administrator do to resolve the problem?
A. Select the Status checkbox to enable Traffic Shaping on the portgroup.
B. Reduce the Average Bandwidth to 50% of the Peak Bandwidth.
C. Reduce the Burst Size to 50% of the Peak Bandwidth.
D. Click the Security tab and create the necessary security exception.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Enabling the policy exception in the Status field, will enable traffic shaping. You are effectively setting restrictions on the amount of networking bandwidth allocated for each virtual adapter linked to this port group.
Incorrect Answers:
B: The Average Bandwidth describes the allowed average load. Reducing the Average Bandwidth will not enable Traffic Shaping for the port group.
C: The Burst Size limits the number of bytes that have accumulated in the burst bonus and transfers traffic at a higher speed. Reducing the Burst Size will not enable Traffic Shaping for the port group.
D: You cannot enable Traffic Shaping via the Security tab.
