Explanation

Hop-by-hop EVN (Easy Virtual Network) is the correct answer. EVN is Cisco's simplification of VRF-Lite for campus environments. It uses 802.1Q trunk links to automatically propagate VRF membership information between devices without requiring manual VRF configuration on every intermediate router. This dramatically reduces administrative overhead when scaling to hundreds of virtual networks. Each EVN has its own routing table and address space, satisfying the Layer 3 isolation requirement. Option D (VRF-Lite) requires manual configuration at every hop, making it operationally burdensome at scale. Option B (multihop MPLS) is complex, typically provider-grade infrastructure, and introduces significant overhead for a campus deployment. Option C (IPsec tunneling) is not designed for campus-scale Layer 3 virtualization.
