Explanation

NAT (Network Address Translation) and VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding) are the correct answers. NAT translates overlapping private IP addresses into unique routable addresses, allowing both networks to communicate without IP conflicts. VRF creates multiple isolated routing table instances on a single router, so the same IP address space can exist simultaneously in separate VRFs without conflict. OTV extends Layer 2 over Layer 3 but does not resolve IP overlap. VPN creates encrypted tunnels but does not inherently resolve overlapping addresses. HSRP is a First Hop Redundancy Protocol for gateway failover and is unrelated to IP overlap resolution.
