A.
The default gateway addresses of both hosts should be set to the IP addresses of both routers.

B.
The default gateway address of each host should be set to the virtual IP address.

C.
The hosts will learn the proper default gateway IP address from Router A.

D.
The hosts will have different default gateway IP addresses and different MAC addresses for each router.

Explanation:
If the gateway router for a subnet or VLAN goes down, packets have no way of being forwarded
off the local subnet. Several protocols (GLBP, HSRP,VRRP) are available that allow multiple
routing devices to share a common gateway address so that if one goes down, another
automatically can pick up the active gateway role. On any of the redundancy protocols GLBP,
HSRP, or VRRP the default gateway on host should be configured to be the virtual IP address.
