Microsoft Server Virtualization with Windows Server Hyper-V and System Center Sample Questions:
HOTSPOT
A company has a single Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain and four
Windows Server 2012 R2 servers that have the Hyper-V role installed. The company uses System Center 2012 R2 Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) to manage the Hyper-V environment. One set of Hyper-v host servers is dedicated for use by the development environment. A second set of Hyper-v host servers is dedicated for use by the production environment.
The network architects assign the IP address subnets as shown in the following table:
The network architects also prepare a network design for the Hyper-V environments as shown in the Network Design exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
The implementation team reports a problem with IP addressing as shown in the Network Error exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You need to ensure that the implementation team can implement the network design successfully.
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. Each correct selection is worth one point.
