D.

Explanation:

Which two network settings are available on a vSphere Standard Switch? (Choose two.)
B and D are correct
ESXi shapes outbound network traffic on standard switches and also supports Vlans
Just to be sharp:
Standard vSwitch ONLY supports Egress traffic shaping AND VLANs.
Distributed vSwitch supports ALL including Ingress traffic shaping AND Private Virtual Local Area Networks (PVLAN)
N.B.
The pvlanType of a primary PVLAN entry must be promiscuous. A secondary PVLAN entry can have a pvlanType of either community or isolated.
good side note dude
ESXi lets you to shape outbound traffic on standard switches.

Within a standard vSwitch, you can only enforce traffic shaping on outbound traffic that is being sent out of an object—such as a VM or VMkernel port—toward another object. This is referred to by VMware as “ingress traffic”
