  1. The correct answer is A, https://storagehub.vmware.com/t/vmware-vsan/vsan-stretched-cluster-2-node-guide/networking-and-latency-requirements-1/

    Layer 2 and Layer 3 Support
    Both Layer 2 (same subnet) and Layer 3 (routed) configurations are used in a recommended vSAN Stretched Cluster deployment.

    VMware recommends that vSAN communication between the data sites be over stretched L2.
    VMware recommends that vSAN communication between the data sites and the witness site is routed over L3.
