Why each option

Point-to-point leased lines are simple to configure because they involve a direct connection between two devices without complex routing protocols or overlays.

Alow cost

Leased lines are generally expensive, especially for higher bandwidths and longer distances, making low cost not a typical benefit.

Bfull-mesh capability

A single point-to-point leased line connects only two specific points and does not inherently provide full-mesh capability; multiple dedicated lines would be needed for a mesh topology.

Csimplicity of configurationCorrect

A point-to-point leased line provides a dedicated, direct connection between two locations, which simplifies network configuration as it typically only requires assigning IP addresses to the connected interfaces and basic routing between them.

Dflexibility of design

Leased lines are fixed connections that are not easily reconfigured or relocated, offering low flexibility in network design or topology changes.
