You are designing a network that will run EIGRP over a Metro Ethernet service that does not employ a link-loss technology. What will be the impact on convergence if there is a break in the end-to-end Layer 2 connectivity within the service provider network?
A) The routers will immediately lose their adjacencies and converge.
B) The routing protocol will not converge until the hold timers have expired.
C) The switch ports connected to the router will go down and the routers will immediately converge.
D) The VLAN on the switches will go inactive, the ports associated on the switch will go down, and the routers will immediately converge.
