Which table on an ESXi host is used to determine the location of a particular workload for a frame-forwarding decision?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The MAC table on an ESXi host is used to determine the location of a particular workload for a frame-forwarding decision. The MAC table maps the MAC addresses of the workloads to their corresponding tunnel endpoint (TEP) IP addresses. The TEP IP address identifies the ESXi host where the workload resides. The MAC table is populated by learning the source MAC addresses of the incoming frames from the workloads. The MAC table is also synchronized with other ESXi hosts in the same transport zone by using the NSX Controller.

I believe it's C) ARP Table, as it maps IP addresses to MAC addresses.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be D) Routing Table.

I agree with Lindsey, MAC Table makes sense for frame-forwarding decisions.

Hmm, the Routing Table makes the most sense to me. Unless this is one of those 'ESXi for Dummies' exams, in which case the answer is probably the 'Magical Unicorn Table'.

Wait, is this a trick question? I bet it's the ARP Table, because that's where the host resolves the MAC addresses from the IP addresses.

The MAC Table, for sure! That's where the host stores the MAC addresses and their corresponding virtual machine locations.

Exactly! The MAC Table is used to determine the location of a workload based on MAC addresses.

I'd say the Routing Table is the correct answer here. That's where the ESXi host looks up the destination for frame-forwarding decisions.
