Answers
D.
The CVM/hypervisor cannot use the same VLAN as guest VMs.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The issue of VMs not being able to ping the default gateway from a newly created VM network on VLAN 20, while the Nutanix cluster uses VLAN 10, most likely stems from the switch port configuration. For the VMs on VLAN 20 to communicate outside their local network, the switch port to which the Nutanix nodes are connected must be configured as a trunk. This configuration allows multiple VLANs to coexist on the same physical port and enables routing between them. Without the trunk setup, the VLAN 20 traffic is restricted and cannot reach the network beyond the switch, including the default gateway.
