    1: What is a virtual switch

    Ans: virtual switch is same like physical switch works in Layer 2 , used to create portgroups on the host
    to send and receive the traffic

    2: What is a portgroup

    Ans: Portgroup is seperated virtual path on the virtual switch to send and receive traffic

    3: What are the types of vmkernel portgroups

    Ans:

    Vmkernel portgroup - mgmt traffic, vmotion , iscsi, nfs

    VM portgroup -- vm network traffic

    4: what is the difference between standard switch and distributed switch

    Ans

    1: Standard switch is a host level switch , we need to manually create portgroups and make sure they
    are consistent across all the hosts in the cluster

    2: Distributed switch is vcenter level switch and is common switch for multiple hosts, what ever
    portgroups we create on the DVS will be same for all the hosts

    3: we can avoid human errors during the portgroup creation

    4: DVS will come with advanced features like port mirroring , netflow , PVLAN where these features are
    not available in standard switch

    5: what is netflow

    with netflow we can track vm packet flow , it helps during troubleshooting

    6: After vmotion , my vm has lost network connection how will you troubleshoot

    Ans:

    - I will check portgroup name, VLAN ID

    - Might be VLAN Trunk is missed on the physical switch port , i will check with network team

    - CDP should be enabled to see the switch port info from the host ( vswitch -- nic -- details --cdp)

    7: what is an UPLink

    Ans: virtual neetwork interface from the ESXI host

    8: which portgroup we use for vmotion

    Ans: vmkernel

    9 : what is a VLAN

    Ans: VLAN is a virtual local area network is a private network with a network ( LAN )

    for better security and better performance

    10: Port binding

    Ans: Logical grouping of ports for redundancy and high availability

    11: what are the security policies available in the vswitch

    Promiscuos mode : it is functionality to switch like a hub or switch

    if we set to Accept, packet will be flooded to all the vms on that portgroup

    if we set to reject , packet will be sent to the intended vm on that portgroup

    12 Mac address change

    If we set to accept , there will be no incoming traffic towards the vm but there will be only outgoing
    from the VM

    Preferred value is Reject

    13: Forged Transmits

    Ans : vice versa to mac address change

    If we set to accept , there will be only incoming traffic towards the vm but there will be No outgoing
    from the VM

    Preferred value is Reject

    14: what is Nic teaming

    Ans: Grouping of NiCs for redundancy

    15: NiC teaming policies

    Ans:

    Route based on originating port ID

    Route based on MAC addresss

    Route based on IP hash

    explicit failover
