An administrator is physically installing a PowerEdge R750 and needs to connect it to two different networks: a production LAN and a backup network. The server has four 1 GbE LOM ports. How should the administrator connect the server to both networks?

Connect only to the production LAN and use a VLAN for backup traffic.

Install a separate add-in NIC for the backup network.

Connect one LOM port to the production LAN and another LOM port to the backup network.

Connect both networks to the same LOM port using a splitter cable.

A company is deploying PowerEdge R660 servers for a virtualized environment. The virtualization team needs 10 GbE for VM traffic. The on-board LOM is 1 GbE. The server has 4 PCIe slots, and 2 are used for storage controllers. The company has a policy to maximize PCIe slot availability for future expansion. What is the best networking solution?

Install a quad-port 10 GbE add-in card in one slot.

Use the on-board 1 GbE LOM ports and accept the lower performance.

Install two single-port 10 GbE add-in cards in both available slots.

Install a dual-port 10 GbE add-in card in one of the two available slots.

An IT admin is configuring a PowerEdge R750 for a small branch office file server. The workload is light (a few dozen users), and the server room has limited power and cooling. The admin wants to avoid unnecessary hardware costs. What is the most appropriate networking decision?

Install a single-port 10 GbE add-in NIC and use the on-board ports for management only.

Install a quad-port 10 GbE add-in NIC to ensure future-proofing and maximum throughput.

Use the integrated 1 GbE LOM ports for all connectivity and skip add-in NICs entirely.

Use the on-board LOM ports but disable the iDRAC dedicated NIC to free up bandwidth.
