Correct answer & explanation
Spoke configures mGRE tunnel interface to hub
In DMVPN Phase 1, the spoke first establishes an mGRE tunnel to the hub using a multipoint interface. The hub then registers the spoke's NHRP mapping. After registration, the spoke can dynamically learn routes from the hub via the tunnel. Finally, the spoke sends traffic through the hub, which routes it to the destination.
