A network engineer is designing an OSPF network and wants to ensure that a 10 Gbps link is preferred over a 1 Gbps link for traffic between two routers. The engineer has enabled OSPF on both interfaces. What configuration change is necessary to achieve this goal?

Decrease the OSPF reference bandwidth to 10 Mbps.

Increase the OSPF reference bandwidth to 10000 Mbps.

Change the OSPF network type to point-to-point on both links.

Set the OSPF cost manually to 1 on the 1 Gbps link.

What is the purpose of the Database Description (DBD) packet in OSPF?

To send the complete link-state database to a neighbor.

To summarize the link-state database so neighbors can compare and request missing LSAs.

To acknowledge receipt of LSAs.

To request specific LSAs from a neighbor.

What is the primary purpose of the designated router (DR) in OSPF on a multi-access network?

To calculate the shortest path tree for all routers on the segment.

To generate the router LSA for all routers on the segment.

To forward packets between routers on the segment.

To reduce the number of adjacencies and LSAs exchanged on the segment.

Which statement correctly describes OSPF as a routing protocol?

OSPF is a distance-vector protocol that shares its entire routing table with directly connected neighbors.

OSPF is a path-vector protocol that uses AS-path attributes to select the best route.

OSPF is a link-state protocol that builds a complete map of the network and calculates routes using the SPF algorithm.

OSPF is a hybrid protocol that combines distance-vector and link-state features, using hop count as its metric.
