  1. L says:

    strange question..

    A – BGP support depends on a license, not on a presence of daughter card itself.
    so it can’t be the right answer

    B – Only one card is supported and L3 card has no ports – this can’t the right answer too

    D – I’m not aware of any reason why it shouldn’t be possible – can’t be the right answer

    then only C remains, but no idea why 🙂
