CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 436

A network administrator is configuring a link-state routing protocol for traffic. Which of the following routing protocols should be implemented?

Answer options

• A. RIPv2
• B. BGP
• C. EIGRP
• D. OSPF

Correct answer: D

Explanation

OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that efficiently manages traffic by maintaining a complete view of the network topology. RIPv2 and EIGRP are distance-vector protocols, which do not utilize link-state mechanisms, and BGP is primarily used for inter-domain routing rather than link-state routing within a single network.
