D
Init State.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -EIGRP for IPv6 is directly designed on the interfaces over which it runs. This feature allows EIGRP for IPv6 to be configured without the use of a global IPv6 address. There is no network statement in EIGRP for IPv6.

Detailed explanation-2: -After configuring the IPv6 addresses on the loopback interface, you can see the global unicast and the link-local IPv6 addresses. First, you need to start EIGRP with the ipv6 router eigrp command. The number you see is the autonomous system number, which must match on both routers.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Graceful Shutdown feature allows EIGRP to advertise it is being deactivated. This means neighbours do not need to wait for hold timers to expired and can shutdown a neighbour immediately. The Graceful Shutdown is achieved by sending a hello packet with the K-Values all set to 255.
