The network engineering team at a large corporation operates a critical data center with stringent business requirements for network reliability and high availability. EIGRP is used as an interior rou
The correct answer is A. Implement HSRP to provide gateway redundancy and failover.. RFC 2281 is the specification for the Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), so the redundancy solution required by the question must use HSRP. HSRP’s default hello/hold timers (hello = 3s, hold ≈ 10s) map directly to the 3-second failover tolerance in the requirement (you can tune

Explanation
RFC 2281 is the specification for the Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), so the redundancy solution required by the question must use HSRP. HSRP’s default hello/hold timers (hello = 3s, hold ≈ 10s) map directly to the 3-second failover tolerance in the requirement (you can tune timers and preemption behavior to meet the exact
