An administrator has configured an NSX network as shown:

If VM-A sends a packet to VM-B,what happens to the packet before it reaches VM-B?

A.
Distributed Router in Host-A receives the packet from VM-A and forwards it to Logical Switch
7775 in Host-B, via a VXLAN frame, which delivers it to VM-B.

B.
Logical Switch 7321 in Host-A receives the packet inside a frame from VM-A and forwards it to
Logical Switch 7775 in Host-B, via a VXLAN frame, which delivers it to VM-B.

C.
Distributed Router in Host-A receives the packet from VM-A and forwards it to Logical Switch
7321 in Host-B, via a VXLAN frame, which delivers it to Logical Switch 7775 before it is delivered
to VM-B.

D.
Logical Switch 7321 in Host-A receives the packet from VM-A and forwards it to the Distributed
Router in Host-B, which passes it along to Logical Switch 7775 in Host-B before it is delivered to
VM-B.

Good answer is A but better answer option in not mentioned in question

Distributed Router in Host-A receives the packet from logical switch 7321 (segment ID for VM-A) and forwards it to Logical Switch 7775 in Host-B, via a VXLAN frame, which delivers it to VM-B.
