Q1Domain Verified
In the context of OSPF, what is the primary function of the Link State Advertisement (LS
To summarize routes from other areas into a designated area, reducing the size of the LSDB.
To advertise external routes learned from other routing protocols into the OSPF domain.
To represent a transit network (like a broadcast or non-broadcast multi-access network) and its connected routers, originating from the Designated Router (DR).
Type 2, specifically the "Network LSA"? A) To advertise the status and cost of individual router interfaces within an area.
Q2Domain Verified
When configuring OSPF, what is the precise implication of setting the `ip ospf network broadcast` command on an interface that is part of a point-to-point link (e.g., a serial link with PPP encapsulation)?
It will ensure that the interface operates efficiently by not attempting DR/BDR elections, as expected for point-to-point links.
It will cause the interface to operate in a broadcast multi-access mode, potentially leading to unnecessary DR/BDR elections and increased overhead.
It will force the interface to elect a Designated Router (DR) and Backup Designated Router (BDR) on the point-to-point link.
It will automatically change the interface's encapsulation to Ethernet and require a physical layer change.
Q3Domain Verified
An OSPF router has multiple paths to a destination network. One path has an OSPF cost of 20, and another has an OSPF cost of 15. If both paths are active and have equal bandwidth, which path will OSPF select for the forwarding table (FIB)?
OSPF will load balance across both paths, sending half the traffic down each.
The path with the OSPF cost of 15, as it represents the lower cost.
OSPF will not select either path, as the costs are too dissimilar for optimal routing.
The path with the OSPF cost of 20, as it represents the higher cost and potentially better redundancy.
