QuestionQ17

VerifiedSection 4 - Install, Configure, Administrate the VMware Solution

An administrator is deploying vSphere Kubernetes Services (VKS) to run containerized workloads across several regions. Each region contains a dedicated Workload Domain with Supervisor Clusters using vSphere Distributed Switch (VDS)-based networking. The organization’s security policy requires pod-to-pod and pod-to-service communication to be fully observable and controllable at the Kubernetes layer, without adding licensing or overlay complexity.

When deploying a Supervisor, which CNI should the administrator choose as the default supported option?

Explanation

Antrea is the default CNI for VKS clusters deployed through a vSphere Supervisor when another CNI is not explicitly configured. It provides Kubernetes-native networking and policy control for pod traffic. Cilium requires specific VKS versions, add-on availability, and an explicit cniRef configuration, so it is not the default.
