Explanation

OSPFv3 is the version of OSPF specifically redesigned to support IPv6 (defined in RFC 5340). Key differences from OSPFv2 include running directly over IPv6, using link-local addresses for neighbor adjacency, and supporting multiple address families. OSPFv2 (option C) supports only IPv4. 'BGP NG' (option B) is not a standard protocol name-IPv6 support in BGP is provided via MP-BGP extensions. 'RIPv3' (option D) does not exist; the IPv6 variant of RIP is called RIPng.
