Why each option

The default route preference value for External Border Gateway Protocol (EBGP) routes is 170 in Juniper OS.

A20

20 is not the default preference for EBGP; it might be associated with OSPF external routes in some specific contexts.

B100

100 is the default preference for RIP in Juniper OS, and for IBGP on Cisco, but not for EBGP on Juniper.

C170Correct

In Juniper OS, the default route preference value for External Border Gateway Protocol (EBGP) routes is 170. This value is used by the router to determine the preferred path when it has learned the same destination prefix from EBGP and other routing protocols.

D200

200 is not the default preference for EBGP; it is the default for IBGP on Cisco.
