An administrator is creating VMkernel adapters on an ESXi 6.5 host and wants to create separate VMkernel
adapters for every type of traffic in the default TCP/IP stack.
Which three types of traffic can be explicitly enabled on a separate VMkernel adapter? (Choose three.)
A.
Virtual SAN traffic
B.
NFS traffic
C.
vMotion traffic
D.
vSphere HA traffic
E.
Fault Tolerance logging traffic
A,C,E

* A VMkernel adapter for vMotion is required both on the source and the target hosts. Configure The VMkernel adapters for vMotion to handle only the vMotion traffic.
* A separate VMkernel adapter for Fault Tolerance logging is required on every host that is part of a vSphere HA cluster.
* Every host that participates in a vSAN cluster must have a VMkernel adapter to handle the vSAN traffic.
A,C,E – OK
no checbox for rest in configuration
ACE
I am going with C,D,E – I put a lot of focus on the “in the default TCP/IP stack”
https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.5/com.vmware.vsphere.networking.doc/GUID-D4191320-209E-4CB5-A709-C8741E713348.html says
Default TCP/IP stack
Provides networking support for the management traffic between vCenter Server and ESXi hosts, and for system traffic such as vMotion, IP storage, Fault Tolerance, and so on.
Agreed. C D and E for default tcp/up stack
vSphere HA traffic is not even an option when selecting services using the default TCP/IP stack lol!!!! I believe that’s the point!!!!
ACE – OK.

System Traffic Types
Dedicate a separate VMkernel adapter for every traffic type . For distributed switches, dedicate a separate distributed port group for each VMkernel adapter.
Management traffic
vMotion traffic (C correct)
Provisioning traffic
IP storage traffic and discovery
Fault Tolerance traffic (E correct)
vSphere Replication traffic
vSphere Replication NFC traffic
vSAN traffic (A correct)
Isnt it that if HA is enabled on a cluster, it will use the vsan network? Going by that logic, the answers would be A,C,E.
or even between hosts, not necessarily on a cluster
