Explanation

DMVPN (Dynamic Multipoint VPN) is the correct choice because it satisfies all three requirements: it scales to full mesh topologies using NHRP (Next Hop Resolution Protocol) to dynamically build spoke-to-spoke tunnels without pre-configuring every peer; it supports multicast traffic natively through GRE tunnels; and it operates over the public internet. GETVPN (A) requires a private MPLS or trusted WAN backbone and cannot traverse the public internet. Plain GRE (C) is a point-to-point tunnel technology that is not scalable for full mesh without DMVPN. IPsec (D) alone does not support multicast and is not a complete overlay VPN architecture on its own.
