Explanation
The two standard MTU values in ESXi networking are 1500 bytes for normal Ethernet frames and a jumbo frame value (commonly 9000, with some implementations supporting up to 9089) for high-throughput traffic.
Common mistakes.
- A. 1492 bytes is the MTU used for PPPoE encapsulated connections and is not a typical value in ESXi data center networking.
- C. 9000 bytes is a widely referenced jumbo frame target but is not identified as the specific typical maximum MTU value for this vSphere Distributed Switch configuration context.
