Click the Exhibit button. A number of reports from end users indicate that internal and external communications are intermittent and not reliable. You verified the status of the switch ports and have determined that they are up and operational. You also noticed a very high level of link bandwidth utilization on those same ports. The current topology of the affected environment is shown in the exhibit. What would be the cause of the reported issues?

A) A misconfigured interior gateway protocol (IGP) .
B) A lack of a loop-prevention mechanism or protocol.
C) A lack of port-based ACLs filtering the traffic flows.
D) A malformed route-based ACL improperly filtering traffic flows.
