ESXi Passwords
ESXi enforces password requirements for access from the Direct Console User Interface, the ESXi Shell, SSH, or the VMware Host Client.
By default, you have to include a mix of characters from four character classes: lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters such as underscore or dash when you create a password.
By default, password length is more than 7 and less than 40.
Passwords cannot contain a dictionary word or part of a dictionary word.
Note:
An uppercase character that begins a password does not count toward the number of character classes used. A number that ends a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
B does not include any number and only has 3 classes.
The choices should have been
A. 8kMVnn2x!
B. zNgtnJBA2
C. Nvgt34kn44
D. !b74wr
In this instance, the answer is A
An uppercase character that begins a password does not count toward the number of character classes used. A number that ends a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
