Definition
Hello packet
Term
A link state packet (LSP) is sent when?
Definition
Router startup and when changes are made
Term
List 4 advantages of link-state protocols over distance vector protocols
Definition

2. Immediate flooding of LSP's achieves faster convergence.
3. LSP's sent only on a change and only information about the change
4. Hierarchical design is used when implementing multiple areas
Term
What feature do modern link-state protocols provide to minimize processing and memory requirements?
Definition
Splitting routing topologies into smaller areas
Term
