If link-state propagation is enabled on a switch, it can cause the switch to incorrectly detect a link failure, which can lead to network connectivity issues. In the case of the inline Cisco IPS, the switch may detect a link failure due to the IPS not responding to certain types of traffic, even though the IPS is functioning properly.

I would guess "B", assuming that the link failed on the other side and the FTD propagated the link state to the LAN segment
