The option that is most relevant to securing internal routing is VPN (Virtual Private Network). A VPN creates an encrypted tunnel between two or more devices, allowing secure communication between them over an unsecured network such as the internet.

By using a VPN, the network administrator can secure internal routing by encrypting all data that passes between devices on the internal network. This helps to prevent unauthorized access to the network and data, as well as protecting against eavesdropping and data theft.

DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) is a separate network segment that is used to provide controlled access to resources that are accessible from the internet. NAT (Network Address Translation) is a technique used to map a public IP address to a private IP address to allow devices on a private network to access the internet. PAT (Port Address Translation) is a variation of NAT that maps multiple private IP addresses to a single public IP address.

While these technologies can be used to improve network security in various ways, they are not specifically designed for securing internal routing. Therefore, the most appropriate option is VPN.
