A.
2000:FEFE:89::1

B.
172.16.1.1

C.
10.1.1.1

D.
::FFFF:172.16.1.1

Explanation:
When a BGP router reports itself as the next hop, whether because of an explicit neighbor next-hop-self
configuration or implicitly as a result of participating in an EBGP session, BGP allocates a new in label and
adds an entry to the MPLS forwarding table, creating a label-to-next-hop mapping.
Note: When a BGP router does not report itself as the next hop, whether because of an explicit neighbor nexthop-unchanged configuration or implicitly as a result of a participating in an IBGP session, BGP does not
allocate a new in label. Instead, if the route is advertised as a labeled route, BGP uses the existing out label.
This feature is used mainly on route reflectors.

      A proper recursive resolution to a valid Next Hop for IPv6 prefixes requires that BGP Next Hop addresses are represented embedded in IPv6 prefixes. IPv4-Mapped IPv6 addresses represent a transition mechanism in which the IPv4 prefix is automatically and uniquely embedded into the IPv6 address and is an adequate tool for this purpose. These IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses are defined in [RFC4291] Section 2.5.5.2 to represent the addresses of IPv4 nodes as IPv6 addresses:

      | 80 bits | 16 | 32 bits |
      +————————————–+————————–+
      |0000…………………………0000|FFFF| IPv4 address |
      +————————————–+—-+———————+
