Which should the architect include in their design?

An architect is helping an organization with the Logical Design of an NSX-T Data Center solution.

This information was gathered during the Assessment Phase:

A . Deploy a Tler-1 gateway and connect It to an Active/Active Tier-0 gateway with ECMP configured.
B . Deploy an Active/Active Tier-0 gateway and configure ECM
D . Create two separate VLANs to connect the Tier-0 gateway upstream traffic and configure ECM
