To achieve low latency, high throughput, redundancy, and performance, which two NIC teaming policies should the architect recommend?

An architect is helping an organization with the Physical Design of an NSX-T Data Center solution.

This information was gathered during a workshop about ESXi Host networking:

– A total of 50 ESXI hosts to be configured as Transport Nodes.

– All ESXi hosts have a dedicated 2 x Intel 10Gbps Physical Network adapter for the Overlay Traffic.

To achieve low latency, high throughput, redundancy, and performance, which two NIC teaming policies should the architect recommend? (Choose two.)
A . Load Balance Port ID
B . Load Balance Source
C . Load Balance Source Port ID
D . Failover Order
E . Load Balance Source MAC
