Question
**5.03-5. Dijkstra's Algorithm (3, part 5).**

Consider the network shown below, and Dijkstra’s link-state algorithm. Suppose that Dijkstra's algorithm has been run to compute the least cost paths from node E to all other nodes. Now suppose that source node E has a packet to send to destination node A. What is the first router to which E will forward this packet on its path to A?

[Diagram Description]
- The network diagram consists of six nodes: A, B, C, D, E, and F.
- The connections between nodes and their respective weights are:
  - A to B: 3
  - A to C: 4
  - B to C: 8
  - B to E: 10
  - C to D: 4
  - C to E: 2
  - D to E: 4
  - E to F: 2
  - F to B: 4

[Multiple Choice Options]
- D
- C
- F
- B

To answer the question, one would evaluate the shortest path from node E to node A, based on the computed least cost paths from the algorithm.
