  1. The correct answer is D.

    If the answer was ” It preserves the original next hop value as learned FROM the spoke routers, and not (BY the spoke router). i will choose C .

  2. From the hub perspective, it would not modify the next-hop setting, set by the original spoke. This would justify the answer of C.

  3. D
    I would have answered “D” here – the next hop value is learnt by the hub router. The way I read this weirdly structured and poorly put together statement is this – the hub router learns a prefix with a certain next-hop value (from a spoke router) but the hub routers do not change this next-hop value when they re-advertise the prefix to another spoke.

    I would really like to know how other people read this and if “C” should be the correct answer.
