Oh boy, this one's tricky. I was thinking application layer, but then I remembered IPsec is all about the underlying network protocols. Hmm, network layer it is!

I'm pretty sure IPsec tunnels work on the network layer, since they're all about secure IP packet transmission. Option D seems like the right answer here.
