An administrator is asked to deploy a virtual machine (VM) that can sniff packets for the Security team. Which setting must be set to `accept` on the VM's port group?
A. Promiscuous mode
To allow a virtual machine (VM) to sniff packets on its port group, the "Promiscuous mode" setting must be set to "accept" on the VM's port group.
Explanation:
Promiscuous mode: When promiscuous mode is set to "accept" on a port group, the virtual network adapter of the VM attached to that port group can receive all network traffic on the virtual switch, regardless of whether the traffic is intended for the VM or not. This enables the VM to capture and analyze all network packets flowing through the virtual switch.
