A hospital is upgrading its network to support a new electronic health record (EHR) system that requires high availability and low latency. The hospital has a small IT team and cannot afford downtime. The upgrade involves replacing core switches and migrating to a new routing protocol. Which implementation plan is most appropriate?

Replace one core switch at a time, using the existing switch as a backup, and migrate the routing protocol gradually.

Use automation to replace all switches and migrate the protocol at once, with automated rollback.

Replace all core switches at once and migrate to the new routing protocol in a single maintenance window.

Migrate the routing protocol first, then replace the core switches.
