Which feature allows for remote management of a switch?

The correct choice is SVI, or Switch Virtual Interface. This feature enables remote management of a switch by providing a logical interface that you can assign an IP address to. When a switch has an SVI configured for a VLAN, it allows for Layer 3 communication, making it possible to manage the switch remotely through protocols such as SSH or Telnet.

By connecting to the SVI, network administrators can perform tasks such as configuration changes or network troubleshooting without needing physical access to the switch. The SVI serves as a gateway for devices on that VLAN to communicate outside their local network.

The other options do not serve the same specific purpose. The CVI is not a standard term associated with network switch management, while CLI, or Command Line Interface, refers to the method of entering commands on a switch, not a feature that directly enables remote access. VLAN, or Virtual Local Area Network, is a technique for segmenting network traffic but does not inherently offer remote management capabilities on its own without an SVI to facilitate communication.
