Which three options are available for ESXi Certificate Replacement?

  1. VMware Certificate Authority mode

  2. Custom Certificate Authority mode

  3. Thumbprint mode

  4. Hybrid Deployment

The correct answer is: VMware Certificate Authority mode

In the context of ESXi Certificate Replacement, selecting VMware Certificate Authority mode is relevant because this method allows ESXi hosts to obtain and manage certificates through VMware's Certificate Authority (CA). This approach simplifies the certificate management process, ensuring that the certificates are trusted within the VMware ecosystem. VMware CA mode automates certain tasks, such as certificate generation and replacement, and is designed specifically for environments that rely on VMware’s infrastructure, ensuring compliance with security protocols and ease of use. Custom Certificate Authority mode, Thumbprint mode, and Hybrid Deployment are also methods for handling certificates, but they cater to different scenarios or environments requiring specific configurations or more manual handling. Each of these alternatives may have advantages in certain circumstances but does not offer the same level of integration and automation as VMware Certificate Authority mode.
