Correct, ACE.

VMKernel traffic types are:

-vMotion traffic:

Enables the VMkernel adapter to advertise itself to another host as the network connection where vMotion traffic is sent. If this property is not enabled for any VMkernel adapter, migration with vMotion to the selected host is not possible.

-Provisioning traffic:

Handles the data transferred for virtual machine cold migration, cloning, and snapshot migration.

-Fault Tolerance traffic:

Enables Fault Tolerance logging on the host. You can use only one VMkernel adapter for FT traffic per host.

-Management traffic:

Enables the management traffic for the host and vCenter Server. Typically, hosts have such a VMkernel adapter created when the ESXi software was installed. You can have an additional VMkernel adapter for management traffic on the host to provide redundancy.

-vSphere Replication traffic:

Handles the outgoing replication data that is sent from the sourceESXi host to the vSphere Replication server.

-vSphere Replication NFC traffic:

Handles the incoming replication data on the target replication site.

-vSAN

Enables vSAN traffic on the host. Every host that is part from a vSAN cluster must have such a VMkernel adapter.
