You are attempting to utilize a packet capturing software in your studies of a network's traffic, however, your virtual machine running on vsphere is unable to put the network adapter in promiscuous mode. What is the most likely reason for the failure?

vSphere does not support the use of promiscuous mode devices.

vSphere is connected to the network via a switch, and therefore cannot change to promiscuous mode.

The virtual machine hardware compatibility mode is limiting the virtual machine to legacy adapters.

A network security policy is preventing the use of a promiscuous mode interface.
