Boson Test Question [7:16895]
In OSPF, the DR is chosen by A. MAC B. Hello Protocol C. Priority D. IP I chose C but Boson says B. Obviously I have read a 1000 times that the DR is elected by highest priority, so is Boson wrong here or am I mis-interpreting the way the question is worded (typical Cisco)..

If the question were worded, In OSPF, the DR is chosen with, I might agree with the Boson answer, but it seems incorrect with the question stated as such. It is fairly ambiguous, but I wouldn't worry about it. You obviously understand the concept and that is what is really important. I wouldn't think the exam would be so ambiguous or tricky. -Original Message- From: Wright, Jeremy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2001 3:42 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Boson Test Question [7:16895] In OSPF, the DR is chosen by A.

Re: Boson Test Question [7:16895]
Hello protocol is the process by which a DR is elected. Priority influences the election process.

Re: Boson Test Question [7:16895]
If answer C is correct, then what happens when all priorities are equal? Could it still be said that the DR is selected on the basis of Priority alone? What about answer B? Regardless of the interface priority, isn't the DR selected using a hello protocol? John Eric An 8/22/01 3:49:43 PM You are right. I found other wrong answers in Boson test too.

Re: Boson Test Question [7:16895]
In OSPF, the DR is chosen by A. MAC B. Hello Protocol C. Priority D. IP I chose C but Boson says B. Obviously I have read a 1000 times that the DR is elected by highest priority, so is Boson wrong here or am I mis-interpreting the way the question is worded (typical Cisco).. It's a poorly worded question, but I would have to say B. If a router interface with priority 0 initializes and there is no answer to its hellos, it becomes BDR, and, if there is still no response, it promotes itself to DR. If there is a DR and a second router interface with priority 0 initializes, the second router becomes BDR. If there a third router inerface initializes, regardless of priority, it will go into DR-OTHER. If the DR fails, the BDR will promote itself and priority may enter into the new BDR election. If several router interfaces initialize simultaneously and there is no DR or BDR, priority, and then router ID, will break the tie. So yes, priority enters into the selection insofar as an interface with priority = 0 cannot become BDR or DR, but the most common selection factor is order of initialization, governed by the hello protocol. Priority essentially is a subset of the hello protocol.

RE: Boson Test Question [7:16895]
Very Slimy question, but... A (MAC) is never used to choose the DR. If two routers are configured with the same priority Then C (Priority) is not used to choose the DR, if they do not have the same priority then D (IP address) is not use to choose the DR. In either case C, and D are not true in every situation. Only answer B is true in every situation. It is true even we are only considering point-to-point links, because the question specifically asks for the cases in which a DR IS chosen.

RE: Boson Test Question [7:16895]
B is correct. Proirity and IP both influence who will become the DR. Take this scenario. If you have 10 routers on a LAN with their defaults (meaning they all have a priority of 1 for DR election) how will the DR be chosen purely on Priority ? How will they know the priority of the other router interfaces on that network ? During DR elecetion priority is first looked at. If there ia a tie on priority then the Router ID, which is usally the high interface ip or loopback IP (depending whether loopback are configured - highly recommended) Each router is able to see each others priority value via hello packet exchanges which where the election takes place. hope that helps.

Routers use the hello protocol to communicate during the DR election process, the router with the highest priority wins the election.

Isnt the correct answer really the first router to boot with a priority above zero??
