Just as with physical networks, the VMware virtual networking architecture is comprised of multiple components which can be configured in different ways to achieve a variety of network configurations. A physical network consists of both software (for example a DHCP server) and hardware devices such as network adapters and switches. The key difference between a physical network and a virtual network is that in a virtual network the hardware devices are represented in software within the virtualizaion environment.
