Solved VMware Network I/O Control V3

---

Sanity check.. Ran across a practice exam question regarding Network I/O Control V3 that looks like this:

What are two features introduced in Network I/O Control version 3? (Choose two.)
A. Bandwidth reservation per traffic type
---Been doing some research and it looks like "reservations" are new to I/O control version 3. Before with 2, there were only shares and limits.

B. Network resource pools
---User-defined network resource pools existed in version 2.

C. CoS tagging
---CoS tagging was deprecated in Network I/O control version 3.

D. Bandwidth guarantee to virtual machines
---Network I/O Control version 3 new feature is per individual VM shares, reservation, and limit.

So I am thinking the answer to this question would be A and D. Agree or no? Why or why not?

@Adam-Tyler,

A is correct: Version3 supports separate models for infrastructure resource management and for VMs.

D is correct: Version 3 gives bandwidth to VM network adapters using shares, reservations and limits. Virtualized workloads can use vSphere Distributed Switch, DRS and HA for admission control.
