Correct answer: OMP.
Why this is the answer
OMP (Overlay Management Protocol) is the correct answer because it is the routing protocol used in Cisco SD-WAN to exchange routing information between WAN Edge devices. When a WAN Edge learns routes from its local site (e.g., via OSPF or EIGRP), it advertises these routes into the SD-WAN overlay using OMP. This allows other WAN Edge devices in the fabric to learn about these local networks. BGP is a routing protocol, but in SD-WAN, it's typically used for peering with external networks, not for advertising internal site routes within the overlay. TLOC (Transport Locator) is an identifier for the physical interface and transport network, not a route type. A service route is a specific type of route used for service chaining or redirecting traffic to a service, not a general route advertisement type for local site prefixes.
