Answer : [A, B]
Explanation :
A. Correct: A Windows Deployment Server installation requires the network adapter to support PXE, which emulated adapters do, but synthetic adapters do not. B. Correct: Synthetic adapter drivers are installed as part of the Guest Integration Services package; if there is no package for the guest OS, then there are no synthetic drivers. C. Incorrect: Synthetic adapter drivers are not provided by hardware manufacturers. D. Incorrect: Synthetic adapters provide better performance than emulated adapters.

Answer : [D]
Explanation :
A. Incorrect: Synthetic adapters use the faster VMBus for communications with the parent partition; emulated adapters must use calls to the hypervisor.

C. Incorrect: Because of their more efficient communication with the parent partition, synthetic adapters perform better than emulated adapters.
D. Correct: Synthetic network adapters load with the Guest Integration Services on the guest OS, which prevents them from supporting PXE.

Answer : [B]
Explanation :
A. Incorrect: A pool of eight MAC addresses would be insufficient for many Hyper-V installations.
B. Correct: A Hyper-V server provides a pool of 256 MAC addresses by default. You can create more by modifying the default address range.
C. Incorrect: Hyper-V, by default, dedicates only one byte of the MAC address to a dynamic value, which is not enough to support 4,096 addresses.
D. Incorrect: Hyper-V creates a finite pool of MAC addresses by specifying minimum and maximum address values.
