4A0-101 Exam - Question 34


Which of the following statements regarding OSPF routing updates on a point-to-point link is true?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

On a point-to-point link within OSPF, there is no need for the election of a Designated Router (DR) or Backup Designated Router (BDR) because point-to-point links directly connect two OSPF routers. Therefore, all routing updates are sent to the multicast address 224.0.0.5, which is used for sending OSPF Hello packets to all OSPF routers.
