A.
It avoids split-horizon issues with distance vector routing protocols.

B.
IP addresses can be conserved if VLSM is not being used for subnetting.

C.
A multipoint interface offers greater security compared to point-to-point subinterface
configurations.

D.
The multiple IP network addresses required for a multipoint interface provide greater
addressing flexibility over point-to-point configurations.

Multipoint – Router can use the physical interface to connect to many routers all in the same subnet.

– point to point frame relay interfaces need seperate subnets
– in multipoint many routers can be connected over single interface/sub -interface

IP address can be conserved if VLSM is not being used for subnetting.
