Company XYZ uses BGP as its routing protocol. An external design consultant recommends enabling TCP path MTU discovery. What effect will this have on the network?

  • A It will create a loop free path
  • B It will enhance the performance of TCP-based applications
  • C It will improve the convergence time
  • D It will increase the convergence time
