The correct answer is B. The primary site requires six, and the secondary site requires two. Each node in a NetApp cluster must have at least one Intercluster LIF to participate in SnapMirror replication. Therefore, for a six-node cluster (primary), you need six LIFs, and for a two-node cluster (secondary), you need two LIFs -- one per node.
