Of the following options, which are are recommended post-installation activities for ESXi that increase security? Select two.
  1. Change the root password.
  2. Configure lockdown mode.
  3. Destroy the installation media.
  4. Write the root password down and put it in a safe place.
  5. Remove floppy disks from the drive.
Explanation
Answers: A and B - After installing ESXi the root password is blank, and it is recommended that you change it immediately. Another good practice is to configure lockdown mode; this stops any interaction with the server other than through the vCenter server. When in lockdown mode, a host cannot be managed through the local console, from a vMA or via external management tools.
