Selected Answer: B

Private - Creates a virtual switch that can be used only by the virtual machines that run on this physical computer. And for the record. Internal - Creates a virtual switch that can be used only by the virtual machines that run on this physical computer, and between the virtual machines and the physical computer. An internal virtual switch does not provide connectivity to a physical network connection.

Private switches are for privatizing the virtual network. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/plan/plan-hyper-v-networking-in-windows-server?source=recommendations#switch-and-network-adapter-choices

I think this is correct. Private switches are only used for virtual machines to communicate with each other. This type can be useful for specific types of traffic such as a cluster network only if you are using one host (as it can’t be used between hosts). https://www.nakivo.com/blog/hyper-v-networking-virtual-switches/
