      A would be correct because you would modify the Virtual Machine settings to use this new network team. Using set-vmswitch may configure a switch for the network team, but wouldn’t satisfy the requirement that VM1 would always have access to the network if a physical NIC fails on Server1.

    By default, virtual machines are not configured to work with a teamed adapter. You must allow Virtual Machines to be configured with the NIC Teaming by executing the below PowerShell command:
    Get-VM | Set-VMNetworkAdapter -AllowTeaming On

    You do not need to designate a Standby Adapter to achieve fault tolerance; fault tolerance is always present whenever there are at least two network adapters in a NIC Team.

    I go for D.

    We need to change the Load balancing mode to Adress Hash. Or with powershell: Set-NetLbfoTeam -Name TEAMName -LoadBalancingAlgorithm TransportPorts

    “https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/technologies/nic-teaming/create-a-new-nic-team-in-a-vm”:
    “NIC Teams within a VM must have their Teaming mode configured as Switch Independent. In addition, Load Balancing mode for the NIC Team in a VM must be configured with the Address Hash distribution mode.”

    Anyone agree/disagree?
