   A VCF administrator is troubleshooting an ESXi host that cannot perform vMotion migrations to other hosts in the cluster. The vMotion VMkernel adapter is configured with the correct IP address, and the port group is on the correct VLAN. The vmkernel log shows 'vMotion: Failed to connect to remote host' errors. What is the most likely cause of the vMotion failure?

   • AThe vMotion VMkernel adapter is configured with the wrong subnet mask.
   • BThe vMotion VMkernel adapter is not enabled for vMotion traffic.
   • CThe vMotion traffic is being blocked by a firewall between the hosts.

What is the most appropriate remediation step to restore the host to the standard configuration?

   • AReinstall the ESXi host using VCF lifecycle management to restore the standard configuration.
   • BReboot the ESXi host to reset the network configuration to the standard.
   • CManually edit the vSwitch0 configuration to match the other hosts in the cluster.
   • DUse the VCF lifecycle management tools to reapply the standard network configuration to the host.
