The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch is a software-based virtual switch that provides advanced networking capabilities for virtualized data center environments. It operates as a distributed virtual switch that integrates with the VMware vSphere environment to provide network virtualization.

The major components of the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch are as follows:

  1. Virtual Ethernet Module: This module provides the basic Layer 2 switching functionality of the virtual switch. It includes features such as VLAN tagging, Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), and Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities.

  2. Virtual Supervisor Module: This module provides the management and control plane functions for the virtual switch. It includes features such as configuration management, monitoring, and control of the virtual switch. The Virtual Supervisor Module is responsible for the creation and management of the Virtual Ethernet Modules.

Therefore, the correct answer to this question is B. Virtual Ethernet Module and C. Virtual Supervisor Module. The other answer choices are not valid components of the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch.

It's worth noting that the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch has been replaced by the Cisco Nexus 1000V Switch for Microsoft Hyper-V, which provides similar functionality for Microsoft virtualized environments.
