Chapter 6

What is the purpose of a routing protocol? It is used to build and maintain ARP tables. It provides a method for segmenting and reassembling data packets. It allows an administrator to devise an addressing scheme for the network. It allows a router to share information about known networks with other routers. It provides a procedure for encoding and decoding data into bits for packet forwarding. Scoring Rule For: correctness of response 2 points for Option 4 0 points for any other option Max Value = 2 Earned Value = 2

Why is fast convergence desirable in networks that use dynamic routing protocols? Routers will not allow packets to be forwarded until the network has converged. Hosts are unable to access their gateway until the network has converged. Routers may make incorrect forwarding decisions until the network has converged. Routers will not allow configuration changes to be made until the network has converged.
