In the following exhibit, a host on the 2001:db8:0500::/64 network sends a packet to a host on the 2001:db8:3000::/64 network. Which path will the packet take?

A. Router A to Switch A to Switch B to Router B
B. Router A to Router B
C. Load-balanced Router A to Router B and Router A to Switch A to Switch B to Router B
D. Router B to Router A

A. The packets will take the path of Router A to Switch A to Switch B to Router B, since the feasible distance is lower, by taking the path of the switches. Although interface Gi0/0 on Router A and Gi0/0 on Router B are not in the same subnet, the link-local interfaces are used for routing the packets.
