Basically a VMKernel port is required if the adapter do not have his own TCP/IP stack implemented.

Both FC HBA and independent hw iscsi implements a TCP/IP stack, so there is no need of a VMkernel port.

A and D are correct, but the FC protocol does not use IP addressing, hence no need for a vmkernel port
