Which command would you use to view current SDM template in use?

The command used to view the current SDM (Switch Database Management) template in use is "show sdm prefer." This command allows network administrators to check which SDM template is currently applied to a switch, providing insight into how the switch is utilizing its resources based on the chosen template configuration.

The SDM templates define how system resources are allocated for different features, such as routing, VLANs, or access control lists. By executing the "show sdm prefer" command, an administrator can quickly ascertain the optimized resource allocation mode for the switch, ensuring that it aligns with the organization's requirements for performance and functionality.

In contrast, other options do not represent valid commands to view the current SDM template. For instance, "show sdmb prefer" and "display current sdm" use incorrect syntax, and "view sdm status" is not a recognized command in the context of Cisco IOS for querying the SDM template.
