Correct Answer "IPSec exemptions change Exempt ICMP from IPSec to Yes. Use this setting to prevent ICMP (Ping and Tracert) messages from being authenticated, encrypted, or both. Keeping ICMP messages unprotected allows you to perform basic network troubleshooting when IPSec cannot be successfully negotiated."

"respond to the unencrypted tracert commands" IPsec defaults are about secured connections so A is wrong B is wrong since it is outbound but respond would mean inbound C is plain invalid D is correct
