VMware VMware Cloud Professional 2V0-33.22PSE Exam Dumps: Updated Questions & Answers (October 2025)

The best option for a cloud administrator who wants to deploy a VMware Cloud software-defined data center (SDDC) on a cloud provider and requires a consistent 4.5 Gbps bandwidth from applications to communicate from on-premises to the SDDC is a Route-Based Virtual Private Network (VPN). This type of connection offers enhanced performance [1][2], flexibility, scalability, and security compared to other options, such as Policy-Based Virtual Private Network (VPN), Private L2 Virtual Private Network (VPN), or Private Line.

According to the VMware official site, "Route-based VPN enables a secure connection between two or more sites, or between a site and a mobile user, and provides better performance and scalability than a policy-based VPN. Route-based VPNs are also more secure than policy-based VPNs, because the traffic is encrypted with a unique encryption key for each tunnel, rather than relying on a shared key for all tunnels. This allows for secure and reliable connections for devices and applications located in different physical locations." [1]

Port mirroring is a VMware Cloud tool that an administrator can use to forward all the monitored traffic to a network appliance for analysis and remediation. The network appliance can then analyze the mirrored traffic and take the appropriate remedial action. Port mirroring can also be used to identify and troubleshoot network issues, as well as monitor network activities.

Port mirroring lets you replicate and redirect all of the traffic coming from a source. The mirrored traffic is sent encapsulated within a Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnel to a collector so that all of the original packet information is preserved while traversing the network to a remote destination.

Port mirroring is used in the following scenarios:

Troubleshooting - Analyze the traffic to detect intrusion and debug and diagnose errors on a network.

Compliance and monitoring - Forward all of the monitored traffic to a network appliance for analysis and remediation.

Port mirroring includes a source group where the data is monitored and a destination group where the collected data is copied to. The source group membership criteria require VMs to be grouped based on the workload such as web group or application group. The destination group membership criteria require VMs to be grouped based on IP addresses. Port mirroring has one enforcement point, where you can apply policy rules to your SDDC environment.

The traffic direction for port mirroring is Ingress, Egress, or Bi Directional traffic:

Ingress is the outbound network traffic from the VM to the logical network.

Egress is the inbound network traffic from the logical network to the VM.

Bi Directional is the traffic from the VM to the logical network and from the logical network to the VM. This is the default option.

According to the VMware Cloud on AWS documentation, the minimum capacity of an i3.metal host is 8 vCPUs and 64 GB of memory. Therefore, to meet the demand of an additional 60 cores and 640 GB of memory, the administrator should add two i3.metal hosts to the cluster. For more information, please refer to the official VMware Cloud on AWS documentation at: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Cloud-on-AWS/index.html.

A key driver behind the multi-cloud journey is digital transformation, which is the process of using technology to optimize existing processes and systems in order to improve customer experiences, increase operational efficiency, and accelerate business growth. Multi-cloud solutions can help organizations modernize their applications and services, reduce costs, increase agility, and support digital transformation initiatives. For more information, please refer to the official VMware Cloud on AWS documentation at: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Cloud-on-AWS/index.html.

Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration system for automating application deployment, scaling, and management, which provides features such as self-healing, auto-scaling, and service discovery. With Kubernetes, cloud administrators are able to easily scale and manage containers across multiple clusters and nodes, allowing them to more effectively manage container-based applications. Additionally, Kubernetes provides advanced features such as container scheduling, resource management, and service discovery, which are all essential for managing container-based applications in a production environment. For more information on Kubernetes, you can refer to the official VMware documentation here. or is encount

VMware Multi-Cloud Vision enables customers to deliver a consistent management and operations layer across any cloud, and to modernize applications in the cloud of choice using the cloud-native services of that cloud provider. It does not run workloads in the cloud to eliminate security issues, standardize at the DevSecOps and infrastructure level, or reduce the number of developers to increase productivity.

Compatible top of rack switches are necessary to ensure that the data center is able to support the VMware Cloud on Dell EMC or VMware Cloud on AWS Outposts deployments [1]. The switches must support 10GE and 25GE ports, as well as Layer 3 routing protocols such as OSPF and BGP.

Dedicated subnets for SDDC management network are also needed for the deployment of VMware Cloud on Dell EMC or VMware Cloud on AWS Outposts [1]. The SDDC management network will be used for communication between the VMware Cloud components and the data center, and must be isolated from the customer network.

VMware Cloud on AWS Outposts (A):

On-premises VMware Environment: This solution deploys a VMware SDDC (Software-Defined Data Center) as a fully managed service offering on your premises. It provides a consistent VMware environment that is maintained and operated by VMware and AWS.

Reduced OpEx and CapEx: Outposts eliminates the need to purchase and maintain hardware, reducing both capital and operational expenses.

Regulatory Compliance: The on-premises deployment ensures that data remains within your data center boundaries, addressing regulatory concerns.

VMware Cloud on Dell EMC (B):

Hybrid Cloud with Hardware Ownership: This solution brings VMware's software-defined stack onto Dell EMC hardware that remains under your ownership. Dell EMC manages the hardware lifecycle, reducing some operational burden.

OpEx Savings: This solution shifts some operational costs to a subscription-based model, helping to reduce operational expenses compared to full hardware ownership.

Regulatory Compliance: Similar to Outposts, deployment in your datacenter helps address potential regulatory requirements for data sovereignty.

Why Other Options Are Less Ideal:

VMware Cloud Foundation (C): While a great on-premises SDDC solution, it primarily addresses operational efficiency but doesn't inherently reduce capital expenditures (as you still need to own the hardware).

Oracle Cloud VMware Solution (D) & VMware Cloud on AWS (E): These are public cloud solutions and wouldn't meet the regulatory requirement of keeping the applications on-premises.
