What kind of device can be used to configure and manage physical and virtual networking devices across the network?

vNIC (virtual NIC)

What software allows you to define VMs and manage resource allocation and sharing among them on a computer?

List two advantages to using virtualization on a network.

Efficient use of resources, physical, clients or servers devoted to one function typically use only a fraction of their capacity Cost and energy savings, organizations save money by purchasing fewer and less expensive physical machines

How does a vNIC get a MAC address?

Every VM has its own virtual network adapter, or vNIC (virtual NIC), that can connect the VM to other machines, both virtual and physical. Upon creation, each vNIC is automatically assigned a MAC address
