11. Consider the following three statements about link state and distance vector routing
protocols, for a large network with 500 network nodes and 4000 links.
[S1] The computational overhead in link state protocols is higher than in distance vector
protocols.
[S2] A distance vector protocol (with split horizon) avoids persistent routing loops, but not a
link state protocol.
[S3] After a topology change, a link state protocol will converge faster than a distance vector
protocol.
Which one of the following is correct about S1, S2, and S3?
a. S1, S2, and S3 are all true.
b. S1, S2, and S3 are all false.
c. S1 and S2 are true, but S3 is false
d. S1 and S3 are true, but S2 is false
N1: (0, 1, 7, 8, 4)
N2: (1, 0, 6, 7, 3)
N3: (7, 6, 0, 2, 6)
N4: (8, 7, 2, 0, 4)
N5: (4, 3, 6, 4, 0)
Each distance vector is the distance of the best-known path at the instance to nodes, N1 to
N5, where the distance to itself is 0. Also, all links are symmetric and the cost is identical in
both directions. In each round, all nodes exchange their distance vectors with their
respective neighbors. Then all nodes update their distance vectors. In between two rounds,
any change in cost of a link will cause the two incident nodes to change only that entry in
their distance vectors. 52. The cost of link N2-N3 reduces to 2(in both directions). After the
next round of updates, what will be the new distance vector at node, N3.
(A) (3, 2, 0, 2, 5)
(B) (3, 2, 0, 2, 6)
(C) (7, 2, 0, 2, 5)
(D) (7, 2, 0, 2, 6)
