Which characteristics are representative of a link-state routing protocol? (Choose three.)
A.
provides common view of entire topology
B.
exchanges routing tables with neighbors
C.
calculates shortest path
D.
utilizes event-triggered updates
E.
utilizes frequent periodic updates
Explanation:
Each of routers running link-state routing protocol learns paths to all the destinations in its
“area” so we can say although it is a bit unclear.
Link-state routing protocols generate routing updates only (not the whole routing table) when a
change occurs in the network topology so
Link-state routing protocol like OSPF uses Dijkstra algorithm to calculate the shortest path -> .
Unlike Distance vector routing protocol (which utilizes frequent periodic updates), link-state
routing protocol utilizes event-triggered updates (only sends update when a change occurs) ->
