I believe people analyze these types of questions too much.
I would say "You have to run something besides OSPF and RIP would be feasible"
My answer is based on I'm running IP and IPX, so I choose RIP for my IPX implementation. What it boils down to is your explanation. These types of questions are general and a conversation or thread can go on forever in the different answers. However, not with a HR type that has a list of 10 technical questions to ask you. He writes down your response and explanation and gives it to the technical manager to interpret your responses.
The difficult part is you have to be sure to explain how you interpreted the question. In most cases the person doing the first round interview cannot elaborate on the question because they don't necessarily understand the question or know the answer.

Subject: Re: Interview Question - OSPF
Would you think it this way .
his question was can ospf and rip coexist in the same network ?
I would have answered yes; because it is true you can run both protocols in
the same network.
why would you? ????
.remeber that ospf does support desktop protocols such as ipx and appletalk
.
