   A network engineer is designing a new branch office connection. The branch has two WAN links to different ISPs for redundancy. The engineer needs to ensure that if the primary link fails, traffic automatically switches to the backup link. However, the engineer also wants to avoid the complexity of a dynamic routing protocol. Which approach best meets these requirements?

   • AConfigure two static default routes with different administrative distances.
   • BUse policy-based routing to select the backup link.
   • CConfigure a single static default route with a high metric.
   • DEnable OSPF on the branch router to handle failover.
