Actual exam question from Microsoft's 70-741
Question #: 26
Topic #: 1
[All 70-741 Questions]

You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2016. Server1 is a Hyper-V host that hosts a virtual machine named VM1.
Server1 has three network adapter cards that are connected to virtual switches named vSwitch1, vSwitch2 and vSwitch3.
You configure NIC Teaming on VM1 as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)


You need to ensure that VM1 will retain access to the network if a physical network adapter card fails on Server1.
What should you do?

  • A. From Windows PowerShell on VM1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterTeamMapping cmdlet.
  • B. From Hyper-V Manager on Server1, modify the settings on VM1.
  • C. From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration cmdlet.
  • D. From the properties of the NIC team on VM1, add the adapter named Ethernet to the NIC team.

I think the correct answers is B. "you can configure NIC teaming in the Guest OS; however, before NIC teaming will work in a virtual machine, you need to enable NIC teaming in the Advanced Features section of the VM settings."

Hi Guys!!! I think the answer is b!!! Please see the picture carefully. It says: "Some settings are not available for servers running in a guest virtual machine." I test in my lab, if I don't configure SET, this note will appear like the picture shows. After I configure SET , it will works fine.

I think D is correct. About A.Set-VmNetworkAdapterTeamMapping If you change mappings between any physical network adapter and virtual network adapter, you can't avoid the issue that a physical network adapter card fails on Server1.

I'm not going to say that D is the right answer, but here's my argument for it being the right answer: The question doesn't state which network adapters are connected to "the network" and which ones aren't. Only that there are three. It is assumed that either the NIC Team or the address labeled "Ethernet" is, but not enough information is given to determine that for sure. If we assume that the network is configured to connect from "Ethernet" and not the Team, and "Ethernet" is the one that fails, then we're S.O.L. Modifying the Hyper-V settings won't do anything to rectify that. Include all of the interfaces on the Team, and then you're covering your bases and thereby guaranteeing redundancy in the face of an annoyingly nebulous Microsoft-invented scenario! :-)

Also, I'm not sure what those of you thinking it's B expect can be done in Hyper-V Manager. You cannot create a SET in it. You'd need either PowerShell or SCVMM for that jazz.

I originally thought the answer is correct, but according to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/technologies/nic-teaming/nic-teaming "NIC Teaming in Windows Server 2016 supports teams with two members in VMs. You can create larger teams, but there is no support for larger teams." So adding additional NICs to the team won't do anything. So the best option is B, since we don't know if NIC teaming is already enable on the VM.

Variant: A . From Windows PowerShell on VM1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterTeamMapping cmdlet. B . From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run Set-VmNetworkAdapter cmdlet. C . From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration cmdlet. D . From the properties of the NIC team on VM1, add the adapter named Ethernet to the NIC team. Answer: B . From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run Set-VmNetworkAdapter cmdlet. Notice how D is wrong in that variant.

If you have at least two network adapters in a NIC Team, you do not need to designate a Standby adapter for fault tolerance. But..to ENSURE fault tolerance, you'll have to add the NIC to the team.

I would go for B on this. Seems to be some disagreement so I will provide a detailed explanation as to why. We have 2 ethernet adapters in the NIC team and we want to ensure redundancy. Based on this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/technologies/nic-teaming/nic-teaming-settings "If you have at least two network adapters in a NIC Team, you do not need to designate a Standby adapter for fault tolerance." So we're all good there for redundancy. No need to add another adapter to the team as we already have it by adding two. So we need to make sure that this redundancy is going to function correctly.

In Hyper-v go to VM1 > Settings > Network Adapter > Advanced Features. Scroll down to NIC Teaming and it says the below; "You can establish NIC Teaming in the guest operating system to aggregate bandwidth and provide redundancy. This is useful if teaming is not configured in the management operating system. When this option is cleared, a team created in the guest operating system will lose connectivity if one of the physical network adapters stops working." We don't have any indication that teaming is configured in the management operating system here, and the second paragraph just lends more weight to this being the correct thing to do in this scenario. By ticking this, we are ensuring redundancy for the configured team. This can also be done with Set-VMNetworkAdapter -VMName VM1 -AllowTeaming on

The answer is B. This is not SET, this is using NIC teaming WITHIN a VM. The maximum number of supported NICs for this type of team is 2. But you need to tick the box in Hyper-V Manager for both NICs (Network Adapter > Advanced Features) called 'NIC Teaming'. That makes the adapters availble in the VM to form a NIC Team from 2 of them.

He Guy, I will make this one easy for you. According to Microsoft site: If you are configuring a NIC Team in a VM, you must select a Teaming mode of Switch Independent and a Load balancing mode of Address Hash. Ref: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/technologies/nic-teaming/create-a-new-nic-team-on-a-host-computer-or-vm Correct Answer is D!!!!

The same question was found on 70-740 but here the difference is that there are 3 virtual switches. In 740 the answer was to modify the seetings on VM1. I have also another dump with the same question as here but different choices: First one: A. From Windows PowerShell on VM1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterTeamMapping cmdlet. B. From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run Set-VmNetworkAdapter cmdlet. C. From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration cmdlet. D. From the properties of the NIC team on VM1, add the adapter named Ethernet to the NIC team. Here says correct answer is B Second one: A. From Windows PowerShell on VM1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterTeamMapping cmdlet. B. From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run the cmdlet. C. From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run the Set-VmSwitch cmdlet. D. From Windows PowerShell on Server1, run the Set-VmNetworkAdapterFailoverConfiguration cmdlet Here says correct answer is A
