Selected Answer: A

A is correct GLBP maximizes uplink utilization by enabling load balancing across multiple active gateways. This minimizes the configuration needed by dynamically managing these gateways compared to protocols that operate with a single active router and one or more standby routers.

Right, because all MHSRP is is having multiple groups, and any FHRP can do that. The difference is that you leverage one group to be active for one VIP, and the other groups for other VIPs. Even so, question states minimal amount of configuration. For MHSRP you'd need multiple groups, one group for each uplink you want utilized.
