The correct answer is A. Change the VC IDs on the two PEs to match. For an E-Line pseudowire to come up when using manual signaling, both PEs must configure the same VC ID. The exhibit shows VC ID 20 on PE1, but the peer is using a different value, causing the pseudowire to remain down. Matching the VC IDs on both ends brings the circuit up.
