Consider three routers A, B, and C connected as shown in the figure. The routers exchange distance vector routing information and have converged on their routing tables. Now suppose the link between A and B fails. Which of the following avoids the two-node loop instability (count-to-infinity) problem?

  1. A.

    If B sends its routing table to C before C sends its table to B.

  2. B.

    If C sends its routing table to B before B sends its table to C.

  3. C.

    If A sends its routing table to both B and C.

  4. D.

    There is no way to avoid the two-node loop instability problem.
