Category - Install & Upgrade

What are the advantages of deploying an ESXi host in place of an ESX host? Select two.
  1. ESXi has a smaller footprint.
  2. ESXi requires fewer patches to be applied.
  3. ESXi allows the installation of third-party agents.
  4. ESXi has a firewall and is more secure.
Explanation
Answers: A and B - One of advantages of installing ESXi is that ESXi has significantly fewer lines of code and has a much reduced footprint. This allows it to be installed on much smaller disks or USB pen devices. The fact there is less code translates directly into fewer patches being needed. ESXi does not have a service console and therefore you cannot install third-party agents, nor does ESXi have a firewall; it is assumed that if you deploy ESXi that you will have a secure network with its own external firewall.
