- Adjusting Resource Allocations for a VM
What is a Standard Switch Network?
A network with standard switches consists of virtual machines running on a single physical machine, which are connected logically to each other so that they can send and receive data from each other. A network and its associated standard switches provide the interface between virtual machine NICs and physical network adapters.
