A Telco customer is implementing NFV using vSphere as the virtualization platform. Which feature can help achieve a high packet rate with lower CPU consumption?
A. Network I/O Control
B. SplitRX
C. ERSPAN
D. LACP
10 Comments on “Which feature can help achieve a high packet rate with …”
And elimination method
A – NIOC is for reservation/limiting
C – ERSPAN is port mirroring (monitoring) over GRE
D – Link Aggregation has nothing to do with CPU consumption

Emasays:
I think B, the strange bit is that SplitRX is enabled by default since 5.1
Disable SplitRx Mode for an ESXi Host
For better CPU efficiency, for example when the packet rate received from the queue is low the
SplitRx mode can be disabled for an ESXi host from the vSphere Clien
t.
–Still… I guess all the other answers seem wrong.

…when the packet rate received from the queue is low the
SplitRx mode can be disabled. When rate is low !!!! Our question is about high packet rate

SplitRx mode is an ESXi feature that uses multiple physical CPUs to process network packets received in a single network queue. This feature provides a scalable and efficient platform for multicast receivers. SplitRx mode typically improves throughput and CPU efficiency for multicast traffic workloads.

Besides, part of that new 125Q 2V0-622PSE dumps are available here:
LACP: method to control the bundling of several physical network links together to form a logical channel for increased bandwidth and redundancy purposes https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2034277
For me the correct answer that is more close to the question is Network I/O Control (A)
B

not to muddy the waters.. but the question specifies lower cpu consumption, and splitrx increases cpu consumption?

Network I/O Control: traffic is divided into the following predefined network resource pools https://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/index.jsp#com.vmware.vsphere.networking.doc/GUID-ADEA0213-C969-43E4-B1F4-66D4A916EBDF.html
SplitRX: send jobs to CPU https://communities.vmware.com/thread/405943
ERSPAN: is for monitoring https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/lanswitch/configuration/xe-3s/lanswitch-xe-3s-book/lnsw-conf-erspan.html#GUID-4CAB13D7-0803-4D67-B720-4AB56A978FEF
