I think that the only answer correct is D. RIP, for example, doesn't exchange information about links, nor have a hello mechanism. OSPF and BGP don't send periodic updates, they send triggered updates. What is sure is that all routing protocols exchange information about routes, that's what they

OSPF, BGP, and EIGRP send updates only upon initializing or when there have been changes ( new routes added, old routes deleted ) therefore they do not advertise periodically, which implied predictable regularity John Green wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... C and D
