Okay, so we're looking at B and either C or D as the right answers then. I'm leaning more towards D - configuring both the core and access as stub routers, that way we get the quick replies and no unnecessary transit no matter where the query originates.

Yeah, I'm with you on that. Stub routing could definitely help prevent those unnecessary queries, and summarization at the distribution layer would keep the traffic from unnecessarily going through the access switches.

I agree, this is a tough one. I'm thinking the answer might involve configuring the distribution layer to summarize routes to the core, and either the core or access layer as stub routers.

Hmm, this question is tricky. I think the key is to understand the requirements - quick replies, preventing unnecessary queries, and no unnecessary transit through the access layer. That's a lot to consider.
