QuestionQ19

IS-IS Routing Protocol

A router using a link-state routing protocol discovers that one of its neighbors is no longer connected. It creates a new link-state advertisement to notify the other routers about the topology change. Which of the following is NOT an action triggered by this event?

Explanation

A received link-state advertisement is acknowledged, installed when newer, and flooded to other neighbors; duplicate advertisements are not reflooded, and topology changes cause shortest-path-first recalculation. Updating an advertisement's age field is not an action performed by every router merely upon receipt. In OSPF, LSAs age while held in the link-state database, and the LS age is incremented before transmission by the interface transmission delay.
