You have been asked to evaluate an OSPF network and to answer questions a customer has about its operation. Note: You are not allowed to use the show command. running-config
 
Although in this sim we are not allowed to use "show running-config" command but we post the configuration here so that you can understand more about the topology.

Which of the following statements is true about the serial links that terminate in R3?

A. The R1-R3 link needs the neighbor command for the adjacency to stay up

B. The R2-R3 link OSPF timer values are 30, 120, 120

C. The R1-R3 link OSPF timer values should be 10,40,40

D. R3 is responsible for flooding LSUs to all the routers on the network.








 

Suggested Answer: B

Check the Serial1/0 interface of R3 which is connected to R2 with the "show ip ospf interface serial 1/0" command:

There are two things we should notice from the output above:
+ The "network type" connection between R2-R3 is "NON_BROADCAST" (usually we have "BROADCAST"). OSPF neighbors are discovered using multicast
Hello packets. In non broadcast environment, multicast (and broadcast) messages are not allowed so OSPF neighborship cannot be formed automatically.
Therefore we have to establish OSPF neighborship manually by using "neighbor " command under OSPF process (OSPF will send unicast Hello message to this address). For example on R2 we have to use these commands: router ospf 1 neighbor 192.168.23.3
And on R3:
router ospf 1
neighbor 192.168.23.2
+ For non broadcast environment the default Hello timer is 30 seconds; Dead timer (time to wait before declaring a neighbor dead) is 120 seconds and Wait timer
(causes the interface to exit out of the wait period and select a DR on a broadcast network. This timer is always equal to the dead timer interval) is 120 seconds. In the output we also see the default timers for non broadcast network.
