Correct Answer:
Verified

The three different types are: bridged switch, host only switch, and NAT. A bridged switch includes the host computer's NIC, allowing the virtual machine to be part of the physical network. A host-only switch isolates the virtual machine from the physical network but allows communication with the host computer. The VMnet8 virtual switch connects the virtual machine to the host computer via a Network Address Translation (NAT router. The NAT router enables virtual machines connected to VMnet8 to access the external network by using the host computer's IP address.
