The Agentless Collector Works for Network Dependency Mapping VMware Integration: The Agentless Collector connects directly to your VMware vCenter Server. It analyzes metadata and configurations of your VMware VMs, including: IP addresses Hostnames Network interfaces Running processes Network Dependency Detection: By monitoring network traffic patterns between VMs (e.g., TCP/UDP connections, ports, and communication frequency), the Agentless Collector identifies directional dependencies (e.g., which VMs communicate with each other). Example: If VM-A connects to VM-B on port 443, the Collector logs this relationship. Data Output: The collected data is sent to AWS Migration Hub, where it is automatically visualized as network topology diagrams (exportable as .png). Diagrams include: IP addresses and hostnames of VMs. Lines showing network connections between VMs.

Option A. This solution meets all the requirements: Use AWS Application Discovery Service: This service is designed to help you discover and map your on-premises infrastructure, including network dependencies between systems. Select an AWS Migration Hub home AWS Region: This step ensures that the discovery process can collect data from the on-premises environment and import it into the Migration Hub for visualization. Install the AWS Application Discovery Agent on the on-premises servers for data collection: The agent collects detailed information about network dependencies, including host IP addresses, hostnames, and network connection information. Grant permissions to Application Discovery Service to use the Migration Hub network diagrams: This allows the service to create a visual representation of the network dependencies, which can be used to inform migration planning.

A is correct. Agentless can not collect network connection data(network dependency) https://docs.aws.amazon.com/application-discovery/latest/userguide/what-is-appdiscovery.html

A, for sure. It's called AWS Application Discovery Agent, and not AWS Application Migration Service agent

AWS ADS can't publish data to AWS Migration Hub without permission granted. B is wrong because question doesn't mention that all the vms are managed by vcenter plus missing grant permisson to ADS

You don't need agents in VMware environment

VMware VMs = Agentless

Option A: AWS Application Discovery Service and agent types. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/application-discovery/latest/userguide/what-is-appdiscovery.html

Option A

A is the correct answer. We need agent install in order to generate network diagrams.

Correct Answer is A
