D.
An interior gateway protocol
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a network protocol that ensures a loop-free topology in Ethernet networks by actively blocking certain links and enabling others. STP prevents loops by putting some of the links in a blocking state, effectively creating a loop-free topology. This ensures that there is only one active path between two devices, which helps prevent network loops and the associated problems (such as broadcast storms) that can result from them. STP is used to create a fault-tolerant ring between three switches within a Layer 2 network.
