Answer: B

Explanation:

The VMware vSphere Standard license does not include support for advanced features like Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) and Distributed Switches. These features are available only with the vSphere Enterprise Plus license. Therefore, to meet the customer’s requirement of using Distributed Switches and a DRS cluster, the proposal should include vSphere Enterprise Plus licenses instead of Standard licenses.
