B and C all the way! Shortcuts and bypassing the hub - that's the dream, am I right? Although, I do wonder if the hub feels a little left out when the spokes start going off on their own. Somebody should probably check on it, make sure it's not getting lonely.

Hmm, this is a tough one. I'm leaning towards B and C, but D also seems like it could be helpful in certain scenarios. Maybe I'll just flip a coin and hope for the best.

I see, so it's like having the benefits of a full-mesh topology in a hub-and-spoke network. That makes sense.

I agree with Antonette, that's one advantage. But I also believe it enables spokes to bypass the hub during shortcut negotiation.

I think enabling ADVPN on the IPsec overlays provides direct connectivity between spokes by creating shortcuts.

I'm going with B and D. If we can establish shortcuts to third-party gateways, that seems like a pretty useful feature too.

D is actually quite useful too. It allows spokes to establish shortcuts to third-party gateways, expanding the network's reach.

I'm not sure about D, but B definitely makes sense to me. It's all about creating shortcuts for better connectivity.

B and C are definitely the correct answers. ADVPN enables direct spoke-to-spoke connectivity and allows spokes to bypass the hub - that's the whole point of using it in a hub-and-spoke topology.
