This means that the virtual machines are able to exchange data and information not only amongst themselves but also with the host machine that is running them, as well as with other networks outside of the virtual environment. This allows for seamless communication and connectivity between the virtual machines and the external world.

To configure an NLB cluster with unicast, what is the minimum number of network adapters required in each node?
- A.
  
  Three
- B.
  
  Two
- C.
  
  One
- D.
  
  Six
Correct Answer
B. Two

Explanation
To configure an NLB cluster with unicast, a minimum of two network adapters are required in each node. This is because unicast NLB requires two separate network adapters - one for the cluster traffic and the other for regular network communication. The cluster adapter is responsible for handling NLB-specific traffic, while the regular adapter handles all other network traffic. Having two network adapters allows for proper segregation and management of the different types of traffic, ensuring efficient and effective functioning of the NLB cluster.

Users who are connecting to an NLB cluster have been complaining that after using the site for a few minutes they are prompted to log in using their username. What should you do to fix the problem and retain scalability?
- A.
  
  Set the cluster affinity to None
- B.
  
  Create a port rule to allow only ports 80 and 443
- C.
  
  Set the cluster affinity to Single
- D.
  
  Set the filtering mode to Single Host
Correct Answer
C. Set the cluster affinity to Single

Explanation
Setting the cluster affinity to Single means that each user's requests will be directed to the same target within the cluster. This ensures that the user's session state is maintained and they are not prompted to log in again after a few minutes. By retaining the user's session state, the problem of users being prompted to log in again is fixed. Additionally, setting the cluster affinity to Single allows for scalability as it distributes the load evenly among the targets within the cluster.
