To create GENEVE backed segments using NSX-T Data Center, a customer needs to configure an Overlay Transport Zone.

GENEVE (Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation) is a protocol used by NSX-T Data Center to encapsulate virtual network traffic in order to provide network virtualization. Overlay Transport Zones are used to specify which hosts and hypervisors are part of a virtual network overlay, and are responsible for encapsulating and decapsulating network traffic.

In contrast, VLAN Transport Zones are used to extend VLANs across NSX-T environments, while Virtual Distributed Switches and Virtual Standard Switches are types of virtual switches that are used to connect virtual machines and physical network adapters to virtual networks.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. Overlay Transport Zone.
