CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 474

Which of the following routing protocols is BEST suited for use on a perimeter router?

Answer options

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

Correct answer: D

Explanation

BGP is specifically designed for use on the internet and is the most suitable choice for a perimeter router as it handles routing between different autonomous systems. OSPF, RIPv2, and EIGRP are more suited for internal routing within an organization's network and may not handle external routes as effectively as BGP.
