An administrator suspects that the MTU value for a vSphere Standard Switch is misconfigured. Which two commands can determine the value? (Choose two.)
The correct answer is A. esxcfg-vswitch -l B. esxcli network vswitch standard list. Two valid ESXi CLI approaches exist for listing standard vSwitch configuration including MTU: the legacy esxcfg-vswitch command and the modern esxcli namespace.

Why each option
Two valid ESXi CLI approaches exist for listing standard vSwitch configuration including MTU: the legacy esxcfg-vswitch command and the modern esxcli namespace.
esxcfg-vswitch -l is a legacy ESXi command that outputs a full listing of all standard vSwitches, including each switch's MTU setting, uplinks, and port groups.
esxcli network vswitch standard list is the current recommended command under the esxcli framework and outputs structured vSwitch properties including the configured MTU value.
esxcfg-vss is not a valid ESXi command - the correct legacy binary for vSwitch operations is esxcfg-vswitch, so this command would return a 'command not found' error.
The esxcli namespace path 'network standard vswitch list' is syntactically incorrect - the proper path reverses 'standard' and 'vswitch' as 'network vswitch standard list'.
