What is the difference between inter-AS VPN and intra-AS VPN?
The correct answer is D. Inter-AS VPN requires cooperation between different autonomous systems to handle label. Inter-AS VPNs require coordination between two or more autonomous systems so that labels and VPN routes can be exchanged across AS boundaries, typically through ASBRs using eBGP- based mechanisms. In contrast, intra-AS VPNs operate entirely within one autonomous system, where…

Explanation
Inter-AS VPNs require coordination between two or more autonomous systems so that labels and VPN routes can be exchanged across AS boundaries, typically through ASBRs using eBGP- based mechanisms. In contrast, intra-AS VPNs operate entirely within one autonomous system, where label distribution is handled internally using mechanisms such as LDP or internal BGP signaling without external AS coordination.
