A is wrong, I’m pretty sure it’s not always used.

Wait, they use holddown timers? That's new to me!

B is spot on, but C is a bit tricky.

I thought split horizon was optional, not default?

Definitely B and C! That's how they work.

I thought Distance Vector Protocols maintained a single database rather than multiple ones, so I'm a bit confused about option D.
LA

I’m leaning towards options B and C, but I can't recall if split horizon is actually used by default in all Distance Vector Protocols.

I remember practicing a question that mentioned holddown timers, so I feel like that might be one of the attributes too.

I think Distance Vector Protocols definitely send information about directly connected links to neighbors at regular intervals, but I'm not sure about the split horizon part.

I remember learning about distance vector protocols in class. I'm pretty confident the correct answers are B and A - sending updates to neighbors and using split horizon.

Okay, let me think this through. Distance vector protocols send updates to neighbors periodically, and they use split horizon to avoid routing loops. I'll go with those two.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know distance vector protocols have some unique features, but I want to make sure I identify the right two.

This question seems straightforward. I think the key is to focus on the characteristics of distance vector protocols.
DE

Hold-down timers? More like 'hold my beer' timers. Distance Vector Protocols are all about keeping it simple and passing the routing buck to your neighbors.
KA

B) Send information about directly connected links to neighbors at periodic intervals.
EL
Elise

A) Use split horizon by default.
BA

Hmm, I'm torn between A and B. But C and D just sound like something Dijkstra would come up with, not Distance Vector.

TE

I'm going with B and D. Maintaining multiple databases sounds like a Distance Vector thing, and sending info to neighbors is a key characteristic.
LA
Lasandra

B and D are definitely important aspects of Distance Vector Protocols.
MA
Matthew

Yes, those are the two key features of Distance Vector Protocols.
JA
Jackie

I agree, B and D are the correct attributes for Distance Vector Protocols.
AN
Anthony

A and C seem like the obvious choices here. Split horizon and hold-down timers are classic features of Distance Vector Protocols.
SA
Sabrina

Definitely B and C. Distance Vector Protocols are all about sharing routing information with neighbors and handling topology changes.
AN
Annelle

C) Use holddown timers when topologies change to allow for convergence.
LE
Leonida

B) Send information about directly connected links to neighbors at periodic intervals.
CA
Candra

I believe maintaining multiple databases: neighbor, topology and routing is also an attribute of Distance Vector Protocols.
AR

I agree with Sylvie, and they also send information about directly connected links to neighbors at periodic intervals.
SY

I think Distance Vector Protocols use split horizon by default.
