Selected Answers: B


B is correct
EFW 7.4 study guide page 224 confirms that,

once the traffic travels from Spoke 1 to Spoke 2, the three FortiGate devices are involved
in the shortcut message interchange.
1. The hub sends a shortcut offer message to Spoke 1 for a more direct tunnel from Spoke 1 to Spoke 2.
2. Spoke 1 acknowledges the shortcut offer by sending a shortcut query to the hub.
3. The hub forwards the shortcut query to Spoke 2, including the WAN IP address of Spoke 2, in this case
100.64.5.1.
4. Spoke 2 acknowledges the shortcut query and sends a shortcut reply to the hub.
5. The hub forwards the shortcut reply to Spoke 1.
6. Spoke 1 and Spoke 2 initiate the tunnel IKE negotiation with the IP address of Spoke 2 sent to ADVPN
