When deploying an advanced single-host virtual lab in a VMware environment, what will Veeam create?
A. A distributed virtual switch with uplink(s)
B. A standard virtual switch with uplink(s)
C. A distributed virtual switch without uplink(s)
D. A standard virtual switch without uplink(s)
The vSwitch is only used by the VMs started in the virtual lab. There is no routing outside the virtual lab to other networks.
It’s D to me.
D

Wrong. Correct option is B. As per the graphic you linked, there is a virtual switch with 2 network cards (uplinks)

@Aheir
The two Nics you mentioned are clearly attached to the proxy appliance so that the production network can connect to the isolated network (virtual lab).
D is the correct answer here.
to make it more clear.
A vSwitch(single host) or vDSwitch (distributed) uses portgroups for internal vm traffic.
To allow this internal vm traffic to leave the host you need to configure physical ports in your hardware to map to this “uplinks”.
Hence its D.
