Explanation

A secure traversal zone between Expressway-C and Expressway-E requires two key elements. First (A), mutual TLS certificate trust is mandatory - each peer must trust the other's server certificate to establish a secure TLS connection for the traversal zone. Without this, the TLS handshake fails entirely. Second (C), if H.323 is required alongside SIP, a separate pair of traversal zones must be configured, because H.323 traversal uses different port negotiation (H.460.18/19) than SIP and cannot share a single traversal zone definition with SIP traffic. A single combined zone (choice B) is not supported for mixed H.323/SIP traversal. Choices D and E describe username/password authentication, which is used for traversal zone authentication but is not the primary mechanism for 'securing' the zone in the certificate-trust sense, and the question specifically targets the two mandatory structural requirements.
