   A network administrator is comparing routing protocols for a network that experiences frequent topology changes. The administrator needs a protocol that will recalculate routes quickly and minimize the time it takes for all routers to have a consistent view of the network. Which protocol characteristic is most important for this requirement?

   • AFast convergence
   • BHigh hop count limit
   • CLow administrative distance
   • DSupport for VLSM

   Which of the following is a common reason to use a static route instead of a dynamic routing protocol?

   • ATo dynamically adjust routing based on current network traffic load
   • BTo automatically failover to a backup link if the primary link goes down
   • CTo reduce administrative overhead in a large, frequently changing network
   • DTo provide a predictable and secure path in a small network with stable topology
