Wastewater VM packets are forwarded by tables that sit on the prepared host. Which SDN plane performs that forwarding?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
The data plane is the actual pipes: packets hit tables on the host and get forwarded without calling city hall for each frame. Management UI, DRS, and Carbon Black are not those pipes. Stats flow back up; the packet path stays on the transport node.
Full Explanation
The NSX-T data plane on transport nodes performs stateless forwarding and transformation from tables programmed by the control plane, and it reports statistics and topology. The management-plane UI does not inspect every wastewater packet. vCenter DRS places VMs and Carbon Black inspects endpoints; neither is the overlay forwarding engine.
