Refer to the exhibit. Which statement about this configuration is true?
The correct answer is D. Router 1 receives only the best path from neighbor 192.168.1.1. Without any BGP multipath or additional-paths configuration applied to the neighbor relationship with 192.168.1.1, standard BGP behavior applies: BGP selects a single best path using its decision process and installs only that one path.

Explanation
Without any BGP multipath or additional-paths configuration applied to the neighbor relationship with 192.168.1.1, standard BGP behavior applies: BGP selects a single best path using its decision process and installs only that one path. The 'maximum-paths' and 'additional-paths' features must be explicitly configured to allow BGP to send or receive multiple paths. Since neither is shown in the exhibit's configuration, Router 1 receives only the single best path from neighbor 192.168.1.1. Option A requires 'additional-paths send/receive' on both ends; Option B would require 'neighbor ... additional-paths send N'; Option C would require 'neighbor ... additional-paths receive' plus same-AS multipath settings.
