    i think answer is A
    vmware standard vSwitch does not support LACP
    “Note: LACP is only supported in vSphere 5.1 and 5.5, using vSphere Distributed Switches (VDS) or the Cisco Nexus 1000v.”

    these switches are in IRF so port can be in LAG and use for load balancing

    This is pulled right out of the study guide, figure 10-15.

    VMware standard virtual switches do NOT support LACP, so B and C are out.

    This type of setup requires aggregation, so D cannot be correct. The only possible answer is A.
