Explanation

In a hub-and-spoke topology, configuring spoke routers as EIGRP stubs (Option C) is the recommended best practice. Stub routers advertise only their directly connected and summary routes, preventing spokes from being used as transit paths between other sites. This also limits the scope of EIGRP query propagation - hub routers will not forward queries to stub spokes, dramatically reducing convergence time after a topology change. Option A is false - stub routers do not automatically summarize; summarization must be configured explicitly. Option D is the opposite of best practice - avoiding stub configuration on spokes increases query scope and can cause stuck-in-active (SIA) conditions.
