answer A - SNMP community strings authenticate access to MIB objects and function as embedded passwords. For the NMS to access the switch, the community string definitions on the NMS must match at least one of the three community string definitions on the network device.

The configuration is for IOS not IOS-XR and the 'public' is already the community: R1(config)#snmp-server host 192.168.1.1 version 2c public R1(config)#snmp-server host 192.168.1.1 version 2c ? WORD SNMPv1/v2c community string or SNMPv3 user name So it has to be D
