device state after loss of connection

hi, during the preparation tests I came across this question that left me perplexed:

In an active-standby HA configuration,  all connectivity between the two devices is suddenly lost.

What are the resulting device state:

A) active standby 

B) active active 

C) unavailable unavailable

D) active unavailable

 

for me the correct answer is B, but I'm not sure.

  • Both Units will be in an Active/Active state. This is because the watchdog process will not be able to connect with HA Peer and the unit will become active. Have faced this scenario during device upgrades.
