Refer to the exhibit. PE1 is a router connected to a major ISP that provides connectivity for multiple provided it to a junior engineer to deploy. What effect does the script produce when deployed?
The correct answer is A. It configures an interface on PE1.. Based on the typical function of a deployment script for an edge router, the script configures an interface on PE1 to establish network connectivity to the ISP.

Why each option
Based on the typical function of a deployment script for an edge router, the script configures an interface on PE1 to establish network connectivity to the ISP.
A typical deployment script for a PE (Provider Edge) router connecting to an ISP would contain commands such as 'interface <type/number>', 'ip address <address> <subnet-mask>', and 'no shutdown' to enable and configure a specific network interface for external connectivity.
The question states PE1 is a router, and without any information indicating the script configures a separate device named Switch 1, this option is less likely.
A configuration script would not inherently limit a device to a single interface; rather, it configures a specific interface or interfaces, but does not impose a global limit on the number of interfaces.
While a script might set a router name or location, configuring an interface is a fundamental connectivity task, and without the script, assuming it configures both PE1 and Switch-1, or includes location, is a broader and less certain inference than just interface configuration on the stated device.
