Tested today in a lab, 327c7c8 is right. The crux is indeed on vSwitch permissions. The sentence “provides access to the Cisco ISE VM and the network settings” is the crux in this query . The example in the book does not take this into account

D should be the answer: Chapter 14 profiling page 427 Ciscopress 300-715. "In order to use SPAN probes with ISE , you need to configure a vSwitch to allow promiscuous connections"

The engineer is logged into the hypervisor with a user account that only provides access to the Cisco ISE VM and the network settings for the VM that is way C is the correct answer. tricky question, I saw the OCG it is stating vSwitch but the user dose not have access to it .

Selected Answer: C

In VMWare Promiscious mode can be specified at the portgroup level or vSwitch level, it does not inherit. If the user does not have access to all settings then it must be port group, as vSwitch is global settings.
